d. A detrivore
31. _____The Krill are
a. Producers b. Consumers
c. Impossible to tell from the diagram
32. _____When the animals in the ocean
die, their bodies sink to the bottom of
the ocean where other animals eat them.
These “bottom-dwelling” animals are
a. Producers
b. Omnivores
c. Detrivores
33. Think about it: Why don’t herbivores
live on the bottom of the ocean?
34. Using the food web above, list the members of a single food chain.
35. _____Who are the omnivores in the food web?
a. Krill b. Humpback Whales
c. Petrels
d. None of the above
36. Using the food web, list two animals that are experiencing interspecific competition.
37. What animals are experiencing intraspecific competition?
38. _____What animal from the food web is on the first trophic level?
a. Krill b. Squid
c. Both penguin species
39. Trick question: there are no members of the first trophic level shown.
40. List one population effect if the crabeater seals go extinct.
41. Put the following tems in order in a food chain: Tertiary Consumer, Producer, Primary
Consumer, Secondary Consumer
_________________ _________________ _________________ _________________
42. _____ Which population is always the largest because it provides food for all of the others?
a. Producers
b. Consumers
c. Detrivores
43. As we move up a food chain, the populations get smaller because much of the energy is lost
as _________________ into the environment.

b. Herbivore
c. Detrivore
d. Omnivore

a. Phosphorus
b. Nitrogen
c. Carbon
e. Water
47. What are the three most important parts of the Carbon Cycle?
