Invertebrates 100
Q: What are Cnidarians?
These invertebrates are found only in water and have stinging tentacles to help capture prey.
Invertebrates 200
These animals have a tube-shaped body. Food enters at one end & exits at the other. They take in oxygen through their skin and must live in moist environments.
Q: What are worms?
Invertebrates 300
This class of invertebrates may live on land, freshwater, or saltwater. They have a muscular foot and a mantle or layer of folded skin that protects their internal organs.
Q: What are mollusks?
Invertebrates 400
Q: What are echinoderms?
This class of invertebrates live in the ocean. Their bodies have radial symmetry and they have a water vascular system. Their tube feet allow them to move on the ocean floor.
Invertebrates 500
Q: What are advantages and disadvantages of an exoskeleton?
An exoskeleton completely covers the body of an arthropod. For land arthropods, this structure keeps cells and tissues from drying out. However, arthropods must shed this exoskeleton as they grow and are vulnerable to predators when they molt.

.
Q: What are insects?
These invertebrates have 3 body sections (head,
thorax, abdomen) and six legs.
Invertebrates 200
Q: What are arthropods?
This class of invertebrates includes both spiders and insects. They have many pairs of legs and other parts that extend from their bodies.
Vertebrates 300
Q: What are mammals?
This class of animals is warm blooded, has hair, and
feeds its young milk.
Vertebrates 400
Q: What is the advantage of an endoskeleton?
This external animal structure allows for more flexibility and ways of moving.
Vertebrates 500
Newts and salamanders are examples of this class of vertebrates.
Q: What is an amphibian?
Ecosystems/Biomes 100
Living parts of an ecosystem (plants or animals) are called this.
Q: What are biotic factors?
Ecosystems/Biomes 200
Non living parts of an ecosystem are called this. (Water, Sunlight, Soil, Temperature, Air, etc.)
Q: What are abiotic factors?
Ecosystems/Biomes 300
Q: What is carrying capacity?
The number of living organisms that a given area can support.
Ecosystems/Biomes 400
Cattail^
caterpillar ^
frog ^
HeronThis is an example of what type of energy flow?
Q: What is a food chain?
Ecosystems/Biomes 500
A type of model that illustrates the feeding relationships between many different producers and consumers in a complex feeding pattern that overlaps and is interconnected.
Q: What is a food web?
Ecosystem Interactions 100
Biome, ecosystem, community, population, organism
Q: What are the 5 levels of organization in an environment?
Ecosystem Interactions 200
An interaction between two species that benefits both species.
Q: What is mutualism?
Ecosystem Interactions 300
McDougal-Littel or Holt
Q: What are the two science books for grades 6?
Ecosystem Interactions 400
A relationship between two species in which one species benefits while the other is not affected (neither harmed or helped).
Q: What is commensalism?
Ecosystem Interactions 500
The establishment of a new biological community in an environment that is barren (little or no topsoil present at first).
Q: What is primary succession?
Ecosystem Interactions 100
Q: What is parasitism?
A relationship between two species where one species benefits and the other is harmed.
Ecosystem Interactions 200
Q: What is a biome?
This generally describes the climate and types of plants found in similar places around the world..
Ecosystem Interactions 300
Q: What is a community?
The living and non-living factors that interact with each other to form a stable environment including only organisms and their local environment. Smaller than a biome.
Ecosystem Interactions 400
Q:What is secondary succession?
The establishment of another ecological community after a major disturbance (like fire, flood) within a stable environment where topsoil still remains after the disturbance.
Q: What are the 3 types of symbosis?
Ecosystem Interactions 500
Mutualism, Commensalism, Parasitism.
Human Impact 100
Resources that cannot be replaced quickly enough by natural means.
Q: What are non-renewable resources?
Human Impact 200
Q: What are renewable resources?
Resources that can be managed and used over and over again.
Human Impact 300
Coal, Petroleum, natural gas, silver, gold, etc. are examples of these
Q: What are non-renewable resources?
Human Impact 400
The number and variety of life forms in an ecosystem as a measure of this.
Q: What is biodiversity?
Human Impact 500
Polluting the air, water, or soil. Destroying or changing animal habitats. Using up natural resources at too fast a rate.
Q: How have humans negatively impacted the environment?
