Primary Producer = 1pt
A plant that gets energy directly from
the sun.
Anthophyta = 1pt
Flower-bearing plant
Coniferophyta = 1pt
Needle-like leaves
Plant Adaptation = 2pt
Thorns along edges of Leaves for
protection
Photosynthesis = 1pt
Plants that are green, showing
evidence of the chlorophyll pigment
used in the process of photosynthesis
Dicot Flower = 1pt
A flower found on the same stem as
Dicot Leaves
Monocot Leaf = 1pt
Linear Venation (they go straight, not
out)
Dicot Leaf = 1pt
(Foreground) Net Venation (out not
straight)
Autotroph = 1pt
An organism that showed no sign of
consuming other organisms, and it’s a
plant, duh.
Arthropod = 1pt
Segmented Appendages, and
segmented body
Animal Adaptation = 2pt
Frogs have developed large hind legs
for far jumping. To reach
higher/farther places for food and
escape from predators 
Mating Behavior in
Animals = 2pt
Two mosquitoes joined together for
reproduction
Insect = 1pt
Six legs, segmented body
Pollution= 1pt
Can harm animal
Destruction of Habitat =
2 pt
Destroying animal habitats! Oh no!
Teritorial Behavior in
Animals = 2pt
The lizards were chasing each other
and fighting
Defense Mechanism of
Plant= 2pts
The aloe plant has developed thorns
that can hurt a predator
Defense Mechanism of
Animal= 2pts
The caterpillar’s red color and pointy
needle-like things all around it’s body
help to protect it from predators.
A parasite and a host=
2pts
The green plant is attached to the
large tree, but isn’t a part of the tree.
It’s taking nutrients away from the
tree.
Predator-prey
relationship= 2 pts
The man is holding the alligators food,
the alligator (predator) eats the food
(prey)
A Multiple Fruit= 1 pt
Strawberries are considered a
multiple fruit because it consists of
many tiny individual fruits all
embedded in the fleshy receptacle.
A Legume= 1 pt
Peanuts are a common legume.
A Pome= 1 pt
Apples are among the most common
of pome fruit.
A natural plant mutation=
2 pts
The grapefruit is actually a natural
mutation of the shaddock or
pummelo; it originated somewhere in
the West Indies.
A fruit= 1 pt
Bananas are a type of fruit!
A basidiomycote= 2 pts
Mushrooms are part of basidimycota,
they have spores .
A Grain= 1 pt
Rice is a grain, which is a small, hard,
edible fruit that is harvested from
grasses.
A Carnivore= 1 pt
The alligator strictly eats meat, and is
strictly on a meat diet.
A Vegetable= 1 pt
A cucumber is a vegetable.
A renewable resource=
1 pt
Water is a renewable resource
because it can’t get all used up before
more is made.
Animal home= 1 pt
The alligator lives in the water behind
it.
An animal larva or pupa=
1 pt
This is the larva stage of a butterfly.
A Decomposer= 1 pt
Flies are decomposers (other picture is
zoomed out but has personal item).
Animal tracks= 1 pt
Looking closely, you can see the tracks
made by the alligator.
Commensalism= 2 pts
The alligator is the only benefactor in
this human-alligator relationship
Biotic factor= 1 pt
The grass in the sand near the lake is
holding the sand together, because of
it’s roots, maintaining the enviroment
Primary Consumer= 1 pt
The primates in the trees consume
plants, the second level of energy
consumption
An invasive species= 1 pt
The banyan tree was brought to
Florida by human means, it does not
naturally exist here.
An organisms home= 1 pt
The primates live in the house behind
it.
Abiotic Factor= 1 pt
The poles in the background were
placed there by human means and
affect the territory of the Alligator.
A mammal= 1 pt
Fur, lungs, 4-chambered heart, milk,
live birth…DOGS ARE MAMMALS!
Herbivore= 1 pt
Gerbils are herbivores, they do not eat
meat. They eat a variety of fruits and
veggies!
An organism with bilateral
symmetry= 1 pt
The primate is symmetrical from head
to toe, and brain is in front of body
Natural protein= 2 pts
The duck is an animal with muscle
fibers, which require protein, meaning
the duck is a natural source of protein.
Food Chain= 2 pts
Zebra>grass>sunlight
Genetic variation within a
population= 2 pts
The difference in genes has caused
one primate to have lighter fur than
the other.
An example of secondary
succession= 2 pts
The bare rocks and dirt are being
covered with lichens and small grasses
Angiosperm= 1 pt
Flowering plant that isn’t conifers;
have fruit, flowers
Population= 2 pts
A bunch of Madagascar “Palms” in the
same geographical area
Secondary xylem growth=
2 pts
Advanced stem on the middle tree.
Mutualism= 2 pts
Both trees draw nutrients and share
the nutrients amongst each other,
otherwise one tree would have died.
An organism with a type 1
survivorship curve= 2pts
Most primates live through their
younger years, and start to die later on
in life.
Fern= 1 pt
Flowerless and seedless vascular plant
that has true roots.
An organism with a type 3
survivorship curve= 2 pts
