ecosystems and cells
quiz
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| cell membrane | soft flexible outside covering of a cell thatcontrols what goes in and out. |
| cytoplasm | the jelly-like fluid that fills most of the cell. The other parts of the cell are found here. |
| nucleus | controls everything in the cell. |
| vacuoles | storage space in the cell. They hold water and other nutrients. They also store waste the cell needs to get ride of. ***much large in plant cell.*** |
| mitochondria | The "power" of the cell, it stores energy. |
| chromosomes | carries genetic material (eyecolor) |
| (plant cells only) Cell wall | Hard, rigi shell that covers the cell membrane and protects the cell. |
| (plant cell only) choroplasts | gives the plant its green color |
| biotic | living things. plants, animals, microrganisms(bacteria), grass,tree |
| aboiotic | non-living things. water, tempture, soil, rocks, air |
| population | a group of the same living things in the same ecosystems |
| community | all of the populations in one ecosystems (deer, tree(oak), frog, ect. (in a forest) |
| Tundra:Terrestrial | location: north+south pole climate:very cold, frozen soil all year long = permafrost plants: few grasses and trees animals: rabbit, carabou, owls, foxes, penguins, polar bear |
| rainforest: Terrestrial | location: warm climates usally near the equator climate: warm year round and getts a lot of rain plants: red wood, cedar orchid, exotic plants and flowers animals: *the most amounts of animals in any ecosystem monkey, lizards, lepords |
| grasland/savanna: Terrestrial | location: mid-wester US (grasslands) african (savanna) climate: not a lot of rain soil is fertile temp can vary depending on location plants: tall grasses, few trees animals: savanna, elephant, giraffs, zebras, prairie dog, bison, grasshopper |
| desert: Terrestrial | location: all contenents: Africa, Austrialia, SW United states, parts of Asia climates: less than 20cm of rain each year very hot during the day very cold at night plants: catus, few bushes adn grasses need shallow roots animals: lizards, jack rabits |
| ocean: Aquatic | location: all over the world *saltwater climate: sunlight and temptures vary on how deep you are (the deeper you go the colder and darker it gets plants: algee in small areas, and seaweed (no sunlight = no plants animals: deep water animals must adapt |
| rivers: Aquatic | location: All over the world climate: varies depending on location plants: fresh water plants animals: fish, ducks, turtles,insects, frogs |
| lakes/ponds:Aquatic | location: all over the world surrounded by land climates: ponds dry up in hot summers top of the water is warmed by the sun plants: alege and plants top were its shallower animal: insects, catfish, ducks, amphibans, frogs, bevers |
| deciduous forest: Terrestrial | location: all over the world climate: moderet temps. and rain plants: oak, maple, and evergreen tree lose leaves when seasons change animals: bears, deer, snakes, rabit, frog, spiders, hawk |
| coniferous forest/taiga: Terrestrial | location: northern part of the northern hemispher climate: short cool summer long cold winters plants: spruces,hermlocks pine, firs. trees with pines and needles animals: moose, deer, caribou, bear, mice, wolves, foxes |
| estuaries/salt marshes | location: places by the coast line where fresh water and salt water mix climate: salt water changes constanly plants: cattail and cordgrass animals: crabs, oysters, shrimp, fish, have to adapt to changing salintity |
