Name: __________________________________________ Date: _______________ Quiz name: Biological Diversity Topic 1 and 2 1. Which of the following does NOT represent diversity within a species? A Individuals have blood types A, B, AB, or O. B Some individuals have grey fur, some have black fur, and some have red fur. C Individual plants are 6 inches high, are yellow, and produce 12 seeds. D Individuals have red flowers, white flowers, or pink flowers. The term used to describe various types of interdependence between members of different species is: 2. A commensalism B mutualism C parasitism D symbiosis In many situations, algae are found living with a fungus, which provides the algae with moisture and a place to live. In turn, the algae produce food for the fungus. This is an example of: 3. A commensalism B mutualism C parasitism D interspecies competition 4. What is the correct order for classifying organism: (Place the numbers in order from general to specific) 1) Genera 2) Phyla 3) Classes 4) Kingdom 5) Species 6) Families 7) Subphyla 8) Orders 5. Areas closer to the equator have greater Biological Diversity than Areas farther away from the equator A True B False 6. Abiotic factors include air, water and living things A True B False The gray bumps on a whale are barnacles, the whale provides a method of transportation for the barnacles. This is what type of Symbiotic Relationship 7. A Commensalism Page 1 of 5 B Mutualism C Parasitism D Predator Prey For species to coexist in an area, they must have slightly different niches. This is best represented by which of the following 8. A Predator prey B Symbiosis C Niche D Resource Partitioning Natural selection occurs when the environment "selects" which individual will survive long enough to reproduce. 9. A True B False When populations of different species live in the same area, these population form ______________________ 10. A Population B Ecosystem C Community D niche The process of natural selection is most closely connected to which component of biological Diversity? 11. A Ecosystem Diversity B Community Diversity C Resource Diverstiy D Genetic Diversity A Dead moose in the Banff National Park is infested with tape worms. What symbiotic relationship does this best describe? 12. A Parasitism B Commensalism C Symbiosis D Mutualism E None of the above 13. What is a species? A A Group of organism that are related to one another B A group of organisms that have the same structure and can reproduce with one another C A group of organism that have the same size and shape D A group of organism that are able to reproduce with one another successfully Which members of a population of snowshoe hares located within the Yukon to Yellowknife conservation area would be the most likely to survive a period of extreme cold? 14. A Hares with a small body mass and a thinner coat Page 2 of 5 B Hears with a larger body mass and a thicker coat C Hears with a small body mass and a thicker coat D Hares with a larger body mass and a thinner coat 15. A duck eats mostly plants, nests near lakes, and is hunted by humans. This is the duck's: A resource partitioning B variability C niche D community Kathy made the following observations on her trip to the forest: 1. An owl, a woodpecker, and a song sparrow were nesting in different parts of a tree. 2. A hawk and wolf were preying on rabbits. 3. The birds were eating the caterpillars off the leaves of trees. 4. A squirrel was hiding nuts in a tree. 16. Match each observation, as numbered above, with the science term given below. Use each number only once. Mutualism Resource partitioning Interspecies competition Commensalism Greg has a red-furred cat, Samantha has a white one, and Jonathon has a black and white one. These differences in fur colour are called: 17. A natural selection B mutualism C interspecies competition D variability Sarah has the following characteristics: I. naturally curly hair II. a big nose III. blue eyes IV. can speak Japanese fluently 18. Which of the above characteristics are heritable characteristics? 19. A I, II, III B II, III, IV C I, III, IV D I, II, IV The process occurring in the picture is Page 3 of 5 A budding B binary fission C spore production D cutting 20. Sexual reproduction in animals or plants relies on the union of two specialized cells known as A ova B gametes C zygotes D sperm cells 21. Which one of the following is most likely to produce offspring that are exact copies of the parent? A asexual reproduction B sexual reproduction C natural selection D artificial selection Use the diagram to answer the following question In order for pollination to occur, there must be a transfer from number _______ to number __________. 22. A 2, 6 B 3, 2 C 2, 5 D 1, 4 Use the following information to answer the next question. Information About Army Cutworm Larvae • Army cutworm larvae eat the foliage of many commercial crops (e.g., wheat, alfalfa). • Army cutworm larvae feed from April to the end of May, at which time they develop into moths. • A tiny wasp (Copidosoma) parasitizes army cutworm larvae by laying a single 23. egg in a larva. • Army cutworm larvae that are parasitized remain in the larval stage longer than those that are not parasitized. If the population of Copidosoma is large, then the quality of wheat crops will A increase, because there will be fewer larvae to feed on the crops B decrease, because there will be fewer larvae to feed on the crops C increase, because larvae will feed on the crops for a longer time D decrease, because larvae will feed on the crops for a longer time An inference that can be made from the graph is that the insect species with the broadest niche is most likely species 24.
