CH 13-14 Review
Consumers that eat both
plants and animals are
called _____.
Omnivore
Overlapping food chains
in an ecosystem create a
more complicated
______ _____ .
Food Web
In an energy pyramid,
which level has the least
available energy?
Top Level Consumer
or
Decomposers
Producers have the
MOST
In which process do
producers use carbon
dioxide to produce other
carbon-containing
molecules?
Photosynthesis
Some ________ convert
nitrogen gas into
nitrogen compounds.
They live in bumps or
nodules on the roots of
certain plants.
Bacteria
Remember
some of them are GOOD
Kudzu, horses, and
pythons were brought
by humans from one
part of the world to
another. These are
examples of
______ _______
Exotic
Species
The typical ________
pattern in an area over
a long period of time is
called climate.
Weather
A group of land
ecosystems with similar
climates and organisms
is called a(n)
__________
Are you paying attention??
Biome
Which biome is
extremely

What do producers
RELEASE as a result of
photosynthesis?
Oxygen
Remember, they do not
CREATE oxygen, it is a
waste product.
A large variety of life is
found in the _________
forest because it is warm,
humid and rainy and
supports many producers.
TROPICAL
RAIN

and receives between 35
to 75 cm of rain a year?
Coniferous or Conifers
“Cone Bearing”
like a pine tree

a coral reef?
Neritic Zone
Wind blowing dandelion

coconuts are both ways
organisms like plants
can be _________ to a
new location?
Dispersed
“Scattered”
The energy role of the
first organism in a food
chain is always a
_____________.
PRODUCER!!!!!!
Mountains and deserts
that are difficult for
organisms to cross are
_______________
barriers to dispersal.
PHYSICAL
Barriers
Temperature and
precipitation determine
an area’s __________ ,
which can limit
dispersal of organisms.
Climate

year in the tundra is
called ___________.
PERMAFROST
The neritic zone extends
over the _______ shelf
