This type of migration is called: A catadromous B anadromous C salt-to-fresh annual migration D fresh-to-salt annual migration
4 Which of the following is NOT a reason for migration: A moving so they can hide in adverse weather conditions B feeding C avoiding predators D seeking out better weather conditions
5 Which of the following is NOT a disadvantage of a long migration: A a large amount of energy is used in travel B a significant amount of energy must be stored up prior to the migration C groups often get lost when the leader of the group gets lost D the predators change throughout the migration
6 Which of the following is NOT a benefit of organisms travelling in a school/shoal: A the risk of predation for the individual is decreased B the group can feed more efficiently C the likelyhood of finding a mate is increased D it creates one moving target for a predator to attack instead of many moving targets

8 Which of the following best defines Risk Sensitive Foraging: A foraging is sometimes restricted because of undo risk B all things being equal, a predator will consume the largest prey C many fish have specialized habitats that allow them to feed efficiently D an organism will consume the highest quality food for the least amount of effort
