List & describe five kinds of
pollutants

Something that can be
broken down by living
organisms is

What is
Environmental Protection
Agency
19
4
Distinguish between renewable
& nonrenewable resources
20
5
Renewable – replaced
at rate which it is used
Nonrenewable –
cannot be replaced or
can only be replaced
over thousands or
millions of years
21
5
a natural resource that forms
more slowly than the rate at
which it is consumed
22
1
What are nonrenewable resources ?
23
1
Which chemicals destroy protective
ozone
24
2
What is CFC’s
Chlorofluorocarbons - In addition to their
original application as refrigerants (freon),
chlorofluoroalkanes have been used as propellants in
aerosol cans, cleaning solvents for circuit boards, and
blowing agents for making expanded plastics (such as the
expanded polystrene used in packaging materials and
disposable coffee cups).
25
2
Because conservation means using
fewer natural resources and
reducing wastes, it helps
26
3
What are prevent habitat
destruction and reduce
pollution.
27
3
What are the three R’s that can
help the environment
__________ __________
__________
28
4
What are Reduce, reuse, recycle
29
4
Describe the impact of exotic
species
30
5
Exotic species can thrive in areas
where there are no natural
preditors and upset the natural
balance of the ecosystem in
which they now live
31

Conservation helps

What are prevent
habitat
destruction and reduce
pollution

Minerals and fossil fuels are
examples of

2
What is nonrenewable resources
35
2
In order to reduce the need for fossil
fuels, scientists are studying power
sources such as wind, tides, and
Double points
36
3
What is
37
3
Falling water ?
Explain - Reduce, reuse, recycle
38
4
Reduce – use less of the resource
Reuse – find outlets that can re-use
the items
Recycle – turn in metals, plastics,
papers so those items can be made
into new items
BOTTOM LINE – less impact of environment
39
4
Describe how habitat
destruction affects
biodiversity
40
5
As habitates are destroyed
through mining, farming,
lumber, top soil can erode &
streams can be filled with
pollutatns – the organism living
in these areas can be left without
food & shelter - & possible die
41
5
What can farmers use to prevent
the harming of beneficial insects
42
1
What is natural
control?
pest
NPC - hl
NPC – hl2
43
1
Too many organisms in one area for
the resources available

introduced into North America from
Asia. It is an example of a(n)

Name four things that can happen
to hazardous waste
__________ __________
__________ __________
48
4
Catch fire, wear through (erode)
metal, explode, make people sick
49
4
Give two examples of how
pollution affects humans
50
5
•Air pollution – effects breathing
•Water pollution - can make people sick or
kill them
•Checmicals - can cause cancer & other
sickness
•As reseources are used up life might get
difficault for people down the road
