Explain how nutrients are cycled in a freshwater ecosystem.
In winter the surface water is colder, more dense and will sink carrying oxygen. The ground water is warmer, which rises carrying nutrients.
Give an example of a physical adaption for life in the aphotic zone.
bioluminescence
True or false? The photic zone is larger than the aphotic zone.
False
True or false? Phytoplankton are the primary producers of the aphotic zone.
False
What aquatic ecosystem has an area of especially salty water called a brine pool?
Cold seep
What word do use to describe the movement of animals with the changing seasons?
Migration
What organism is the producer of freshwater ecosystems?
Phytoplankton, algea
Detritivores are commonly found in which zone of a freshwater ecosystem?
Profundal zone
Some animals make their homes underground to save water, what biome might this happen in?
Desert
What biome could this climate graph belong to?
Taiga (Long cold winters, short summer, moderate percipitation)
A polar bears thick fur is an example of a _______ adaption to protect from the _____ in ______ biomes
physical, cold, tundra
True or false? Fast moving streams and rivers have more oxygen.
True
Give an example of an aquatic ecosystem where chemotrophs are the producers.
Hydrothermal vents or cold seeps
True or false? Plants like seaweed are found in the Limnetic zone.
False (This is the area of well lit open water)
Give three limiting factors for an aquatic ecosystem
Oxygen in water, sunlight, salinity
True or False? Chemotrophic bacteria are the producers of the photic zone.
False
Give an example of a coastal ecosystem with high biodiversity
Coral reef (Other reasonable answers allowed).
What biome could this climate graph belong to?
Temperate forest (Clear seasons, tempratures not too cold, average precipitation)
What biome could this climate graph belong to?
Desert (Low precipitation, high temp)
What biome could this climate graph belong to?
Tundra (Very low tempratures, low percipitation)
What biome could this climate graph belong to?
Tropical rainforest ( High temprature all year round, very high percipitation with a dry season).
True or false? Tropical rain forests have four distinct seasons.
False
What adaptions might animals have to survive deserts?
Nocturnal to avoid sunlight and body conserves water.
What adaptions might plants have when living in a desert biome?
Roots that grow deep for water and tissue that stores water.
True or false? Deciduous forests have long winters and short summers.
False
True or false? Deserts will only have high tempratures.
False
Hibernating during winter is an example of a...
