DRJH Ecology

A cold and moist coniferous forest:

An organism that breaks down dead plant and animal matter:

An animal that has a vestigial pelvis and femur but lives in the water is: 

A physical location where plants and animals live together:

A place where different populations live and interact together:

When a plant of animal copies the looks of another for protection or concealment it is:

Four fifths of the gas  in our air:

When an organism has a remnant of something that was once much larger this is:

When you kill off the predators, what happens to the prey? 

What part of the finch changes over time on the Galapagos islands?

All living and nonliving things in an environment:

This has 75 to 150 cm of rain each year:

The gas that we use to carry out respiration:

A series of events that happens over and over:

Animals have structures with similar functions but they are not built the same:

The process by which water moves through the environment:

How organisms interact in their environment:

An element found in all living things:

A feeding relationship between a producer and a single chain of consumers in an ecosystem

A mushroom is one of these:

A cycle by which carbon moves through the earth’s ecosystem

When two animals have similar structure derived through common ancestors:

What kind of animals were studied by Darwin on the Galapagos islands?

a mouse is one of these:

A model that shows how the available energy decreases as it moves up each level.

A role each organism takes in its environment:

The non living parts of an ecosystem:

When plant or animal species are kept separated by physical barriers: 

An organism that makes food through the process of photosynthesis:

The living parts of an ecosystem:

An example of selective breeding is:

The smallest classification of living organisms - their offspring can produce offspring

This is a cold and dry biome:

The element that plants take in through their roots:

This biome gets less than 25 cm of rain per year:
