7 Blue Bio Final
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Based upon the scenario on the top of your review sheet, what is the problem/question? | Which mineral makes plants grow the most flowers? (Hint - remember that the problem is always a question) |
| Based upon the scenario on the top of your review sheet,what is the hypothesis? | Potassium will grow the most flowers. |
| Based upon the scenario on the top of your review sheet, what is the control group? | Group 4 because they were not sprayed with anything. |
| Based upon the scenario on the top of your review sheet, what is the independent variable? | The minerals (because they are the "thing" that changed in the experiment) |
| Based upon the scenario on the top of your review sheet, what is the dependent variable? | The number of flowers (because that is what we are measuring) |
| Based upon the scenario on the top of your review sheet, what is the conclusion? | Nitrogen grows the most flowers |
| What are qualitative observations? | Observations made using your 5 senses (Examples: The leaf is green. The petal is soft and fuzzy) |
| What are quantitative observations? | Observations made using numbers (Examples: There are five centimeters of water in the beaker. It is 32 degrees Celsius.) |
| What is an adaptation? | The adjustment or change(s) in behavior, physiology, and structure of an organism to become more suited to an environment. |
| What adaptation(s) are made by frogs? | Growing legs, camouflage, webbed feet, etc. |
| What adaptation(s) are made by fish? | Gills, scales, etc. |
| What adaptation(s) are made by egrets (wetland wading birds)? | Long beak, long legs, webbed feet, etc.) |
| What is the niche of an organism that eats the remains of animals that were killed by others? | Scavenger |
| What is the niche of an organism that tracks down and kills other animals (i.e. prey)? | Predator |
| What is the niche of an organism that eats plants only? | Herbivore |
| What is the niche of an organism that eats animals only? | Carnivore |
| What is the niche of an organism that eats both plants and animals? | Omnivore |
| What is the niche of an organism that breaks down other organisms and returns nutrients to the soil? | Decomposer |
| The most harmful type of pest management which uses compounds to kill the pests. Examples include spraying pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, etc. | Chemical Integrated Pest Management (I.P.M.) |
| Using tools or objects to keep pests out or to get rid of them. Examples include traps, screens, fences, trimming and weeding, etc. | Physical Integrated Pest Management (I.P.M.) |
| Engaging in behaviors or practices that discourage pests. Examples include vacuuming, cleaning, crop rotations, etc. | Cultural Integrated Pest Management (I.P.M.) |
| Using living organisms or substances made by living things to get rid of pests. Examples include releasing ladybugs to kill garden pests, using natural hormones to prevent insects from molting, etc. | Biological Integrated Pest Management (I.P.M.) |
| This wetland type is not flooded all of the time and consists mostly of grasses. | Marsh |
| This wetland type has acidic water that does not flow; Vegetation falls into and sings to the bottom of the water. | Bog |
| This wetland type is always flooded, and water flows through it. | Swamp |
| The term for an area of land that drains into a particular body of water. | Watershed |
| The type of relationship where two organisms benefit from one another | Mutualism |
| The type of relationship where one organism benefits and the other is neither helped or harmed | Commensalism |
| The type of relationship where one organism benefits and the other (host)is harmed | Parasitism |
| This cold and dry biome has lots of snow and a frozen ground. Organisms here include polar bears, snowshoe hares lichens and small shrubs. | Tundra |
| This biome is dominated by grasses. They are found in the Midwest and it is good farmland. Organisms include bison, prairie dogs, etc. | Grassland |
| This biome is dominated by a canopy of vegetation. There is a wide variety of vegetation, including toucans, tree frogs and snakes. | Rain Forest |
| This biome is dry with very different day and nighttime temperatures. Organism living here include cactus, lizards and scorpions. | Desert |
| In this type of forest trees lose their leaves in the fall. | Deciduous Forest |
| Evergreens (trees that have needles and produce cones) dominate in this type of forest | Coniferous Forest |
