I Can #4-5 Fill in the correct biome name for each characteristic. 1.) Biome Name Characteristic The forest biome Has 4 distinct seasons Permafrost Less than 25 cm/year of rain Most diverse biome Where we live Drought and wildfires occur often Most rainfall 2.) Compare the rainfall for each biome. You can list them in order if you would like. 3.) Compare the temperature of the biomes. I Can #1 1.) List the 5 levels of organization for an environment and define each level. 2.) Compare and contrast a community and population. 3.) Compare and contrast an ecosystem and a community. 4.) How is a biome different than an ecosystem. 5.) Where an organism lives is its’_________________. 6.) Animals that can reproduce with each other are part of the same ______________. The actions of a species to help them survive are called their________________. I Can #7 1.) Describe the difference between a structural and behavioral adaptation. 2.) Why do animals adapt? 3.) Identify the following as behavioral or structural adaptations: Camoflauge: Fangs on a bat: Extra fur for winter: Migrating south: Padding on feet for warmth: Echolocation of a bat: Long tails on a monkey: Plants turning toward the sun: I Can #2 1.) Compare biotic factors and abiotic factors. 2.) Fill in whether the following are biotic or abiotic. Bacteria________________ Water_________________ Soil___________________ Fish___________________ Tulips_________________ Temperature_____________ Sunlight_________________ Fungi__________________ Rocks_________________ I Can #3 Use the picture above to answer 1-4 1.) How would the zebras affect the rhinos? 2.) How would the grass affect the zebras? 3.) How would the soil affect the animals? 4.) How would the air affect the animals? 5.) If species A has thick blubber and species B has only a thin layer of blubber, what abiotic factor would affect these species? 6.) Some plants need different abiotic factors. Explain at least two abiotic factors that they need and how they it could limit their population if they did not have them. I Can #8 1.) Explain the following symbiotic relationships: Mutualism: Commensalism: Parasitism: 2.) Explain a predator/prey relationship and give an example. 3.) What does symbiosis mean? 4.) A clownfish produces a shield of mucus around its body and lives in the sea anemone. The clownfish scares off butterfly fish so they do not eat the anemone. What type of symbiotic relationship? Explain why. 5.) When a butterfly mimic (looks like a plant) so it is not eaten by a predator, this is an example of what symbiotic relationship? Why? 6.) A tick feeds off of the blood on a dog, what type of symbiotic relationship does this represent? Why? I Can #9 1.) How does pollution affect the biodiversity of an ecosystem? 2.) How does habitat loss affect biodiversity of an ecosystem? 3.) What are things that are harmful to life forms called? How can they be harmful? 4.) What is an invasive species? 5.) How do invasive species affect biodiversity of an ecosystem? I Can #6 1.) Define Succession… 2.) Compare and contrast primary and secondary succession. 3.) When an old-growth forest has remained the same combinations of trees for 100 years they have a ________________ _________________. 4.) Explain the role pioneer organisms play in succession and give an example. 5.) What type of succession are pioneer organisms essential? 6.) If a pond slowly fills in with algae and other plants, this is what type of succession? 7.) If a glacier scrapes all the soil off from a rocky area. This is an example of what type of succession? 8.) A forest fire burns a 10 mile area, but in the spring a few things bloom again. This is an example of what type of succession? 9.) Lichens anchor themselves into rocks to live. This is an example of what type of succession?
