Switch with another partner and
grade their review quiz. For any
incorrect answers, record the correct
response in the left column
1. Photosynthesis
2. Producers
3. Decomposers
• 3. What type of organisms break
down dead material and give back
the nutrients to the soil so it can be
used again by plants?
4. Sun, water
(could say air or dirt too)
5. Osprey, big fish, frog
6. Decomposer
7. Exotic Species
8. Respiration
9. Rabbit, fish, dragon fly
10. Food and oxygen
• 10. What two things do cells need
to give an organisms body energy
(Respiration)
11. Sunlight, water,
carbon dioxide
• 11. What 3 things do plants need to
make food and oxygen
(Photosynthesis)
12. What would happen to plants
at the bottom of a pond if there
was an algae bloom? Why?
• They would start to die off because they
wouldn’t receive sunlight because the algae
would be clocking it at the surface.
13. Herbivore
• 13. Another word for primary
consumer is ______________
14. Zebramussels are exotic, have no predators and rapidly
feed on Lake Champlain’s producers and primary consumers.
Predict the short-term an long-term effects of zebramussels in
the ecosystem
At first Zebramussels will overpopulate and many
native species will die off because the zebra mussels
are eating their food source. Overtime, when they’re
food sources begin to diminish from them over
eating, their numbers will decrease.
15. Biotic
16. Abiotic?
17. Omnivore,
18. Decomposer (bacteria)
19. Carnivore
20. Predict the short-term and
long-term effects of deforestation
The loss of producers will first affect primary consumers and
organisms the use the forest for shelter and roaming habitat.
Overtime, deforestation can cause a mass extinction of species,
particularly in the rain forest which is home to more than half
of the species on earth.
