Biodiversity Exam Define biodiversity: What are the three levels of biodiversity? Identify and define each. ______________________ ______________________ ______________________ - List the five types of microbes: ______________________ ______________________ ______________________ ______________________ ______________________ An ecological hot spot is: a. a place where significant numbers of species and habitats are in immediate danger of extinction b. a hot climate area with numerous types of species c. an area, regardless of climate, with various numbers of ecosystems. Protists (protozoa, algae, etc.) are: a. Prokaryotes b. Eukaryotes c. Amphibians d. Yeast Give one reason why you think biodiversity is important and explain. List the three types of bacteria and draw a picture of each. Make sure to identify the shape of each bacteria. _______________________ _______________________ _______________________ List three threats to biodiversity and briefly explain (1-2 sentences) how each may threaten biodiversity. Thermophiles and are considered what? a. Fungi b. Archaea c. Bacteria d. Viruses The goal of conservation is to: a. preserve habitats and ecosystems b. protect individual species c. both a and b d. none of the above True or false: Viruses are non-living. a. True b. False Fill in the blank - use the words provided to fill in the sentences. Remember - use each word only once! exploitation, invasive species, Endangered Species Act, species survival plans, captive-breeding program, conservation The ____________________________ is a federal act designed to protect and restore endangered and threatened species. In many ecosystems, _________________________ lead to the destruction of native species because of____________________ of resources. _______________________ is the field of study that aims to protect and restore ecosystems, species, and biodiversity. One program that conservationists use is the _______________________, which aims to increase endangered populations through breeding pairs of individuals. The Association of Zoos and Aquariums oversee _____________________, which protect the habitats and interactions of endangered and threatened species. Athlete’s Foot is caused by what type of microbe? a. Bacteria b. Virus c. Fungi d. Archaea What is a keystone species? Explain how it is important to an ecosystem and give an example. Please explain why eating yogurt is good when you are taking antibiotics. *Bonus* How is species diversity related to genetic diversity?
