1 Swamps, bogs, lakes, and ponds are considered: A Lentic B Lotic C Wetlands D Estuaries
2 Which of the following is NOT a factor that defines different aquatic life zones: A Oceanic currents B Heat & sunlight C Dissolved CO2 and O2 D Nutrients
3 You would be able to find a large quantity of phytoplankton in a(n) A Eutrophic Lake B Oligotrophic Lake C 2nd Order Stream D Headwaters
4 A quadrant study is: A a study that follows an organism's migration pattern B a study of a large area such as an entire ecosystem C a study tracking changes in a small section of the environment D a study that follows an organism's reproductive patterns
5 The greenhouse effect involves: A energy from the sun being trapped within the atmosphere & warming an area B energy from the sun being trapped within the atmosphere & cooling the area C energy from the sun causing carbon dioxide to turn into a solid D energy from the sun converting halides into noble gases
6 The __________ is connected to a rise in atmospheric CO2 & corresponding temperatures. A Agricultural Revolution B Industrial Revolution C Manhattan Project D Technology Boom
7 The number of organisms of one species that live in a specific area defines: A a community B an ecosystem C a population D a biome
8 Lakes undergo turn over throughout the changing seasons because: A The gravitational pull from the moon is greater in the winter within the Northern Hemisphere B The epilimnion takes up all of a deep lake such as one of the Great Lakes C The hypolimnion is at a higher density than the epilimnion D The lakes are not affected by tides or currents so the daily temperature associated with depth stays constant
