APES Review Worksheet #1 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. List three consequences of global warming. 1) 2) 3) List three things you could do to decrease your contribution to global warming. 1) 2) 3) List four greenhouse gases. 1) 3) 2) 4) The molecular formula of ozone is ________. Use the axes to the right for the following: a. Draw a line representing the temperature in the Earth’s atmosphere as altitude increases. b. Label each layer of the Earth’s atmosphere and identify where the greenhouse effect occurs and the ozone layer is situated. The chemicals that deplete the ozone layer are __________. In the box below, describe how a CFC interacts with ozone, naming the Altitude important atom responsible on the CFC molecule. (km) Provide examples of three biotic components of an ecosystem. 1) 2) 3) Provide examples of three abiotic components of an ecosystem. 1) 2) 3) 10. Complete the following table: Trait Carbon Nitrogen Temperature (°C) 9. Phosphorus** importance to life Two sinks 1 method of transport (how it goes from one place to another) cycle length (long/short) 11. Write the balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis in the box Photosynthesis: on the right. 12. The approximate age of the Earth is _______________ years. 13. Write the balanced chemical equation for cellular respiration in the box on the right. 14. Match the following (Google them and learn about them if you have to!: Cellular Respiration: a. generalist species Snakehead fish b. specialist species Galapagos tortoise c. invasive species American Alligator d. keystone species Tiger salamander (all amphibians) e. indicator species Rats f. endemic Species** Giant Panda 15. Define the term biodiversity. Water 16. Humans have engaged in agriculture for approximately ____________ years.** 17. Define biome 18. A human-caused issue is also described as ________________________. 19. Sketch and/or label the following on the map of the world below: a. the equator b. two lines showing where our planet’s deserts are concentrated c. the general location facing the highest rate of ozone depletion d. a continent containing large quantities of developing countries that face a high risk of AIDS e. the location of Diamond Bar, China, India, Ethiopia, Brazil, and Bangladesh 20. Complete the following table: Type of Biome Tropical Rain Forest Temperate Deciduous Forest Taiga (Boreal) Forest Tropical Grasslands (Savanna) Temperate Grassland (Prairie) Tundra (cold grassland) Desert Typical Location Typical Climate (moisture and temperature) Organisms’ adaptations for survival 21. Describe the circumstances that will result in cultural eutrophication (dead zones). 22. Explain how increasing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere leads to ocean acidification and write it in a simple formula as well. 23. Identify the characteristic process associated with each of the following. Nitrification: Denitrification: Assimilation: Nitrogen Fixation: 24. Strengthen this weak statement: “Fossil fuel use releases carbon dioxide, which causes the greenhouse effect.” 25. Consider the graph to the left and explain what can be said from the data it presents. 26. List three air pollutants that are emitted during the burning of coal. 1) 2) 3) 27. Fracking is short for ______________ ______________ and it is a concern because… 28. Explain how thermal pollution is produced by power plants. 29. The acronym CAFE refers to the _____________ _____________ _____________ _____________ and it is important because: 30. Define PM 2.5 and explain the health risks associated with it: 31. Explain how evolution works using an example of a species developing an adaptation: 32. In the box provided below, draw an ecological pyramid for an OCEAN ecosystem. Label each trophic level correctly and include a possible type of organism. At the bottom trophic level, write that there are 10,000 kilocalories of energy contained. For each trophic level above it, include the correct amount of energy. 33. For each of the following relationships, define them and provide an example: a. Mutualism: Example: b. Parasitism: Example: c. Commensalism: Example: d. Interspecific competition: Example: e. Intraspecific competition: Example:
