The loss of an apex consumer would impact which trophic level of a food web? primary producers primary consumers secondary consumers all of the above
3. An ecologist studying the trophic structure of a lake constructed the pyramid of biomass below. He is puzzled because the bottom of the pyramid (the producer biomass) is smaller than the next level (the primary consumer biomass). Biomass Top carnivores 1g/m3 Carnivores 12 g/m3 Herbivores 25 g/m3 Producers 10 g/m3
1. Using the figure below, generate a food chain with four trophic levels, and identify each level
6. Mant top level consumers are large carnivores. Explain how their size affects or is affected by the dynamics of energy, biomass and/or numbers pyramids. 7. What other factors in an ecosystem may affect pyramid shapes for that ecosystem? 8. What level of an ecological pyramid would contain humans? Please explain your choice. 9. Many farmers use pesticides on their fields to keep pests from eating their crops. These pesticides, however, can have serious, negative effects on other organisms thaat interact with the ecosystem. For that reason, some people have suggested that bringing in predators to eat the pests would be a better soulution than pesticides. a. Explain what affeccts bringing predators in could have on the ecosystem. b. Which level of organisms is most susceptible to extinction. Please support your answer.
2. Based on the biome you would expect P. rufipes to be found, what kind of animals at other trophic levels would you expect P. rufipes to interact with? (Note: these interactions can include predation, parasitism, competitors, etc.). In other words if you were to design a food web with P. rufipes in it, what other type of animals would be in it and would interact directly with the wasp?
1. What is the role of grain sorghum in South African economy? (2) 2. Why is the production of sorghum decreasing in recent years in SA? (3) 3 Birds can cause major damage to the sorghum crop. How can this be prevented 4 7. Do a mini research on the insect (5 pests) and diseases (5) that affect sorghum and their control strategies for each. (Description and control)
6.Which of the following is a true statement? a. There are always more heterotrophs than autotrophs in an ecosystem b. Only 10% of the energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next -- because of this energy loss, there are always more autotrophs c. In numbers pyramids, there are more autotrophs but no in biomass pyramids d. The number of species increases as the trophic level increases answer explain
1. What is the producer? 2. Identify the primary consumer(s): 3. Identify the secondary consumer(s): 4. Identify the tertiary consumer(s): 5. Identify the quaternary consumer(s): 6. Identify two herbivores: 7. Identify the single omnivore: 8. Identify four carnivores:
1. Define producer (biological definition). Define consumer (biological definition). Construct a realistic food chain which includes at least 4 different organisms.
2. The trophic relationships in real biological communities are much more complex than a simple food chain. These more complex trophic relationships are shown in a food web. This diagram shows a small part of a food web. Notice that the food web contains multiple food chains. A. Circle the organisms in one of the food chains in this food web. B. Label the producer in the food chain you circled. mountain lion C. Explain why the hawk in this food web is a trophic omnivore, even though it does not eat both plants and animals. deer atrod ugog 10ods nous W snake rabbit trees hawk mouse- grasses frog Z cricket bas to AnidT A 46
8. Create a food web using the following food chains Berries to Deer to Black bear Algae to Salmon to Black bear Algae to Squid to Blue shark to Humans 9. Create a Food pyramid using the terms produces and consumers along with organisms from #8. Explain the energy transfer 10. Tom goes to Max's Bistro and orders the Blue shark, which gives him 2 kCal of energy. How much energy, on average, would have been necessary in the algae plants to sustain Tom's meal? Explain how you got your answer.
1. Diagram the food chain for this ecosystem. Be sure diagram the following: a. The nutrient movement b. The energy movement c.
