Study guide for Term 1, Test 3: Energy Transfers and Transformations Test Date: Friday 11/6/09 (Arr 4) and Tuesday 11/10/09 (Arr 6) AS-IB ESS Main Topics to Study from B&K Book Chapter 5- The Biogeochemical Cycles How Chemicals Cycle S. 5.1 Matter and Energy A Closer Look- 5.1 Environmental Questions and Biogeochemical Cycles S. 5.2 A Biogeochemical Cycle A Closer Look-5.2 Biogeochemial Cycles and Life: Limiting Factors S. 5.3 General Concepts Central to Biogeochemical Cycles S. 5.4 The Geologic Cycle S. 5.5 Identify and explain transfers and transformations in systems, write balanced equations for photosynthesis and respiration, explain how the indicator bromothymol blue can be used to detect CO2 concentrations, know approximate %s of water storage in hydr. cycle Notes and Explorelearning lab Chapter 9- Biological Productivity and Energy Flow Biological Production S. 9.2 Energy Flow S. 9.3 The Ultimate Limit on the Abundance of Life S. 9.4 Some Examples of Energy Flow S. 9.5 analyze energy diagrams quantitatively, calculate NPP, GPP, GSP, NSP if given Notes, articles values, explain box-and-arrow diagrams in terms of flows, storages, and sinks, draw a diagram of pathways of incoming solar radiation (with percentages), explain how the pyramid structure can affect functioning of ecosystems (chain length, bioaccumulation, vuln. of top-level carnivores), explain what biomass is and how it might be measured in the field, know specifics of DDT effects and uses Biozone Pages p. 45-46 The Carbon Cycle p. 41-42 Energy Flow in an Ecosystem p. 43-44 Ecological Pyramids Other notes: You may use your “Command terms” IB sheets during the test, because I will use these words to phrase the test questions. The words will be in bold. Be sure that you can apply your lab experiences from the food chain explorelearning.com lab, the ecological pyramids lab, and the explorelearning.com snail/elodea lab Articles/Websites Food Chain Length Depends on an Ecosystem’s Size Should DDT be Used to Combat Malaria? http://sciencebitz.com/?page_id=36 (Pyramids and Ecosystem Function)
