C. Extraction of mineral ores.

D. Pollination of food crops.

2.An area has a large rabbit population. The rabbit population grew from multiple separate families of rabbits. The population is quite resistant to diseases.

What can be said about this situation?
Select one:

The rabbit population has high genetic biodiversity.

The ecosystem has low species biodiversity.

The ecosystem has high species biodiversity.

The rabbit population has low genetic biodiversity.
3.An ecologist argues that marine ecosystems provide climate regulation services. Which statement BEST supports this argument?
Select one:

Marine ecosystems serve as vacation destinations.

Marine ecosystems are home to algae and other photosynthetic organisms.

Marine ecosystems store large amounts of carbon.

Marine ecosystems are a source of fish and seafood.
4.An area has low species biodiversity for insects.

Which option would be true of such a place?
Select one:

The insects in a population would have similar genes.

There would be few species of insects.

The insect populations would be small.

The insects would be living in few habitats.
5.There are many breeds of dogs, each with its own physical characteristics. Great Danes are large, while Chihuahuas are tiny. Poodles have curly coats, and Golden Retrievers have straight coats.

These are all examples of...
Select one:

species diversity.

genetic diversity.

type diversity.

ecosystem diversity.
6.Which statement about the impact of biodiversity loss is FALSE?
Select one:

As biodiversity is lost, humans lose ways to get clean water.

As biodiversity is lost, animals in ecosystems lose their homes, but humans are not affected.

As biodiversity is lost, humans lose access to foods and medicines.

As biodiversity is lost, ecosystems become more likely to break down.
7.A town is in a hilly area with rich forests. People of the town harvest timber and sell it. Over time, parts of the hills become barren.

What are some risks caused by this?
Choose all that apply:

The town will have problems finding fuel for the winter.

There may be more landslides.

The air quality of the town may get worse.

There may not be enough timber for future generations.
8.Which statement accurately describes a benefit to humans from ecosystems with high biodiversity?
Select one:

Ecosystems with high biodiversity are less likely to attract people who like to hike, camp, and fish.

Many species of plants produce chemical compounds that could be used to treat diseases.

Natural environments provide more food than controlled environments like farms.

Living in natural environments make people more resistant to diseases.
9.Wetlands are ecosystems that form around rivers. A city on a river relies on the river for its water. The city has many wetlands upstream. Some people get fish and a variety of other animals from the wetlands.

What will be some of the effects of removing these wetlands and building farms in their place?
Choose all that apply:

The water quality of the river will drop.

People will have a fewer options for food.

The water quality of the river will get better.

People will have more food.

After frida stops exercising, she continues to breathe heavily. what is most likely occurring in her body? heavy breathing during exercise has produced an oxygen surplus in her muscles. this oxygen is being transported to her lungs. this is a result of aerobic respiration. heavy breathing during exercise has produced a carbon dioxide surplus in her muscles. lactate is being transported to her liver. this is a result of aerobic respiration. strenuous exercise has caused her body to be in carbon dioxide debt, and she is breathing hard while lactate is transported to the liver. this is a result of anaerobic respiration. strenuous exercise has caused her body to be in oxygen debt, and she is breathing hard while lactate is transported to the liver. this is a result of anaerobic respiration.
