Chapter 5 and 6 study guide All the terms! Chapter Assessment…. Worksheets Quizzes Section reviews ****be prepared to answer questions about our general findings from the lab with Dr. Shelton When an individual moves into one population from a different population, it is called ____________________. Under ideal conditions with unlimited resources, a population will grow ____________________. A population of bacteria with a limited supply of nutrients will eventually show growth typical of the ____________________ model. Competition, predation, parasitism, and ____________________ are density-dependent limiting factors. A diagram that illustrates how many people of different ages and gender are presently living in a country is called a(an) ______________________________. Social and ____________________ factors explain why some countries have high growth rates, whereas other countries grow slowly or not at all. Because the gases that make up the air can be replaced by natural processes, air is classified as a ____________________ resource. Sustainable development must be based on principles of ecology as well as ____________________. To prevent certain fish populations from collapsing, certain ____________________ have been temporarily closed. Within each species, genetic diversity refers to the total of all different forms of _________________________ present in that species. Any species that is threatened with extinction is a(an) ____________________ species. Excessive levels of DDT in a small algae-eating fish is an example of ______________________________. Top-level carnivores are at greatest risk from ______________________________ because they have the highest concentration of toxic compounds in their tissues. Conservation biology integrates information from other scientific disciplines, such as ____________________, geography, and natural resource management. Intense UV radiation due to ozone depletion can damage plant leaves and tiny _________________________ in the oceans. What is a limiting factor? Give two or three examples. What are some of the factors that economists believe will overcome the negative impacts of the growth of the human population? What evidence is there that Japan has completed the demographic transition? Describe how deforestation might contribute to global warming. Why are scientists trying to model the possible effects on the atmosphere due to global warming?
