Which BEST explains the importance of nitrogen in the cycling of energy and matter?
Where do plants get most of the energy they need to live and grow?
In a food pyramid, which BEST explains why the number of organisms decreases from one trophic level to the next?
Consider this food web: Where is the largest amount of energy found in this food web?

An energy pyramid is shown. Which sentence best describes how energy flows through this pyramid?

The chart lists organisms in five different categories living near the Texas Gulf Coast. Based on the chart, which food chain best models a flow of energy in this ecosystem?

The flowchart below represents the process of photosynthesis. One step in the process is labeled X. Which activity occurs at X?

An organism that contains chloroplasts is able to produce food by the process of
What provides the energy for photosynthesis?
When a plant begins to wilt, there is a _______________ in turgor pressure.
The force of water against the cell wall that allows the plant to stand upright and tall is known as
A plant's growth response to gravity is called
What body system is responsible for forces that allows blood to move around the body?
When seeds begin to sprout, they must use force to push against gravity to emerge from the seed coat. This process is called
This is the ultimate source of our energy.
Ellen was training for a bike race. One afternoon, she grabbed her helmet and took her bike out to the street. She got on the bike and started to pedal, pushing hard to start moving forward. Complete the sentence- "When Ellen started riding, _____________ energy was converted into __________
Ellen biked in a straight line along the street. Then, to avoid the sun, she moved over to ride under the shade of some trees. But as she pedaled faster and sped up, Ellen started to feel hot even in the shade. Consider the following claim: While Ellen was pedaling, chemical potential energy was converted to both kinetic energy and thermal energy. Which piece of evidence best supports the claim?
The food you eat is chemical potential energy that is transformed into
Plants transform radiant energy to
An example of homeostasis is running a fever after a bacteria invades your body, why does your body run a fever?
Organisms can respond to changes in their environment in order to maintain a balance, called homeostasis. What does a tree do to maintain homeostasis during the winter months?
Homeostasis is necessary for a cell to survive. What is the definition of homeostasis?
Which is a feedback mechanism the integumentary system uses to maintain homeostasis?
A _________________ is something that causes a response
The __________________ causes phototropism in plants
Internal stimuli that can cause a fever in an organism include viruses, fungi, toxins, drugs and ___________________.
A plant's response to lack of water is
