8th Grade Science STAAR Review Category 4: Organisms and Environment TEKS 8.10B investigate how organisms and populations in an ecosystem depend on and may compete for biotic and abiotic factors such as quantity of light, water, range of temperatures, or soil composition Readiness Standard Baleen whale Smaller loothed whales Sperm whales Penguins Elephant seal Leopard seal Other seals Other birds Fish Carnivorous zooplankton Other herbivorous zooplankton Krill Phytoplankton 1. Which 3 organisms are in competition for carnivorous zooplankton? 2. How will the leopard seal population be affected if the penguin population declined? 3. Which would be more affected by a decrease in the krill population -"other seals" or "other birds"? Why? 4. Name 3 abiotic factors that the organisms in the food web above would compete for.

Are your importance values similar to importance values for the same species in the other community? What may be some reasons why the importance values for each species are different?

Which argument BEST supports this claim? sa at ak gure ak Orchid populations will be smaller at higher temperatures because the probability of male pollinating bees arriving before orchid flowering is lower. This will result in decreased orchid reproduction and smaller populations. A Orchid populations will be smaller at higher temperatures because the probability of male pollinating bees arriving before orchid flowering is lower. This will result in increased orchid reproduction and smaller populations. Orchid populations will be smaller at higher temperatures because the probability of male pollinating bees arriving…
