| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The movement of water across Earth's surface. | Runoff |
| Carbon Cycle: Process that takes carbon out of the atmosphere. | Photosynthesis (Plants take in CO2) |
| Carbon Cycle: Process that releases more carbon into the atmosphere. | 1. Burning fossil fuels and other fuels, 2. Animals releasing carbon during cellular respiration, 3. Decomposing plants or animals releasing carbon. |
| Nitrogen Cycle: The only organism that can take nitrogen from the atmosphere and put a usable form in the soil. | Bacteria |
| Nitrogen Cycle: Organisms that can only uptake nitrogen they need from the soil. | Plants |
| Nitrogen Cycle: Organisms that have to get their nitrogen from eating plants or animals. | Animals |
| What do the arrows in a food web show? | The direction energy and nutrients are moving in the food web. |
| This supplies the energy needed for most food webs. | The Sun |
| Organisms that make their own food by photosynthesis. | Producers |
| Organisms that are the foundation or the beginning of any food web. | Producers (Green plants, etc) |
| Consumers that eat secondary consumers (Carnivores or Omnivores) | Tertiary (3rd) Consumer |
| Who are the producers in this food web? | Grass, Shrub, Tree |
| Who would be most affected if shrubs were removed from this food web? | Rabbit, Deer |
| Who are the 1st consumers in this food web? | Squirrel, Grasshopper, Rabbit, Deer |
| Who would probably drop in population if the insect-eating birds died out? | Hawk |
| Who would directly receive a population boost if the insect-eating birds died out? | Grasshoppers |
| Organisms that eat other living things for energy. | Consumers |
| Organisms that break down dead things for energy. | Decomposers |
| Consumers that eat only producers (Herbivores, plant eaters) | Primary (1st) Consumer |
| Consumers that eat primary consumers (Carnivores or Omnivores) | Secondary (2nd) Consumer |
| Water Cycle: The process in which surface water is turned into water vapor by the Sun's energy. | Evaporation |
| Water Cycle: The process in which water vapor cools in the upper atmosphere and turns into tiny water droplets to form clouds. | Condensation |
| Water Cycle: The process in which plants lose water vapor to the atmosphere when they exchange gases. | Transpiration |
| Water Cycle: The process in which tiny water droplets form bigger ones and fall to the Earth as rain, hail, snow, or sleet. | Precipitation |
