1/11/2016 Quizlet 5 Written questions 1. the orderly process of change in an ecosystem brought about by the replacement of one community by another untii a stable climax is established 2. A stable, mature e n v i r o n m e n t that undergoes little or no change in species over time 3. Creates soil in primary succession (lichen/moss) first species to appear. 4. A species that initially come to an uninhabited area and that starts an ecological cycle by making soil in which many other species become established. 5. A mass of fungal and algal cells that grow together in a symbiotic relationship and t h a t are usually f o u n d on rocks or trees and starts the soil making process 4 Matching questions 1. moss 2. primary succession First species to come to an area during succession change in an ecosystem over time organisms die out, new species take over 3. pioneer species 4. succession Succession that occurs on surfaces where no soil exists. 2nd oldest group to diverge f r o m the land plant order. Like liverworts, they are relatively small and lack leaves 5 Multiple choice questions 1. succession that can take hundreds or even thousands of years to develop into a climax community a. pioneer species b. secondary succession c. succession d. primary succession https://quizlet.com/105778043/test 1/3 1/11/2016 Test: Ecology Cti 3 Section 1 - How Ecosystems Ctiange | Quizlet 2. succession that occurs after a forest fire a. primary succession b. secondary succession c. succession d. pioneer species 3. A symbiosis of alga and fungus that frequently acts as a pioneer species on bare rock a. moss b. climax c o m m u n i t y 4. c. succession d. lichen Succession that takes place in an area that already has soil (ex. after a wildfire or hurricane) a. secondary succession b. succession c. pioneer species d. primary succession 5. Creating a new an ecosystem f r o m barren rock a. primary succession b. climax c o m m u n i t y c. secondary succession d. succession 5 True/False questions 1. secondary succession — Succession following a disturbance that destroys a c o m m u n i t y w i t h o u t destroying the soil True False 2. succession — the gradual change f r o m one community of organisms to another True False 3. secondary succession — Succession on a site where an existing community has been disrupted. True 4. False climax community - An ecological ecosystem in which populations of plants or animals remain stable and exist in balance with each other and their environment True False https://quizlet.com/105778043/test 2/3 1/11/2016 Test: Ecology Cti 3 Section 2 Biomes | Quizlet Quizlet NAME 4 Matching questions taiga 1. a musk ox, arctic fox, caribou, polar bear would be f o u n d in 2. biome 3. temperate deciduous forest 4. tundra this biome Biome that has a w i n t e r - s u m m e r change of seasons and that typically receives 75 to 1 50 centimeters (30-60 inches) or more of relatively evenly distributed precipitation t h r o u g h o u t the year. grizzly bear, snow shoe hare, ermine, lynx, moose, red fox, gray wolf can be f o u n d in this biome A large region characterized by a specific type of climate and certain types of plant and animal communities 5 Multiple choice questions 1. Biome characterized as a frozen desert where permafrost exists. a. taiga b. biome c. desert d. tundra 2. A biome at the n o r t h e r n m o s t limits of plant growth and at high altitudes, characterized by dwarf woody shrubs, grasses, mosses, and lichens. a. tundra b. taiga c. biome d. desert 3. A tropical forest, usually of tall, densely growing, broad-leaved evergreen trees in an area of high annual rainfall. a. rain forest b. biome c. grasslands d. taiga https ://qulzlet.com/106229863/test?matchi ng=on&m ult_choice=on&tf=on&prom pt-wlth= 1 &I i m lt= 15 1/2 1/11/2016 Test: Ecology Ch 3 Section 2 Biomes | Quizlet ^ 4. A biome consisting of midlatitude forest characterized by broad-leafed trees that lose their leaves each fall and remain d o r m a n t during winter. a. grasslands b. desert c. temperate deciduous forest d. rain forest 5. Also called savannas. Rainfall is low or seasonal. Dominant plant is grass. Other plants; buffalo grass, sunflower, golden rod, clover. Large herbivores: bison, antelope, zebra, prairie dogs a. grasslands b. taiga c. tundra d. rain forest 5 True/False questions 1. desert — musk ox, arctic fox, caribou, polar bear would be f o u n d in this biome True False 2. taiga - musk ox, arctic fox, caribou, polar bear would be f o u n d in this biome True False 3. tundra — grizzly bear, snow shoe hare, ermine, lynx, moose, red fox, gray wolf can be f o u n d in this biome True False 4. grasslands — A biome where grasses, not trees, are the main plant life. Prairies and Savannahs are types of Grasslands. Here soil is fertile and grains grow well. True False 5. taiga — musk ox, arctic fox, caribou, polar bear would be f o u n d in this biome True False https://quizlet.com/106229863/test?rnatching=on&rnult_choice=on&tf=on&prompt-with=1&limit=15 2/2 Test: Ecology Ch 3 Section 3 - Aquatic Ecosystems | Quizlet 1/11/2016 Quizlet NAME 4 Matching questions 1. : ; Intertldal zones standing{not moving) fresh water ecosystems estuary 2. 3. coral reef 4. lakes and ponds Colonies of tiny animals that produce calcium carbonate that over time build up to f o r m large underwater structures In shallow w a r m tropical seas. The portion of the shoreline that lies between the high and low tide lines. Are bodies of water f o u n d in areas where freshwater f r o m rivers and streams and salt water f r o m the ocean meet. 5 Multiple choice questions 1. examples of standing-water ecosystems a. oceans b. wetlands c. lakes and ponds d. rivers and streams 2.
