Question

zone of the ocean which one would find large organisms such as tuna, sharks, and dolphins.

Answer 1

Sounds like the photic zone.

They call it "photic" because enough light can penetrate this zone, for photosynthesis.

Answer 2

how about 2 down in the crossword

Answer 3

it doesnt fit photic

Answer 4

So far on the crossword i got 1 across lichen, 6 across abiotic, 12 across secondary,11 across taiga, 14 across biome, 20 across ten, 23 across biosphere......27 across bacteria....13 across and 16 down i think r the same : symbiosis...15 down is organisms, 4 down is herbivore

Please see if all these are correct so far...

Answer 5

sometimes we call the it "euphotic" zone.

Answer 6

but then 4 down and 15 down dont make sense cause that word wont fit

Answer 7

and it still doesnt fit

Answer 8

the word itself

Answer 9

Is this the chapter 3 & 4 crossword?

Answer 10

yes

Answer 11

did u get the answer yet????

Answer 12

No. I'm going through the powerpoint.

Euphotic wouldn't fit either.

Answer 13

oh the powerpoint opens?? i tried so hard to open it but it wont open on my laptop

Answer 14

That's weird.

Answer 15

nvm it opens

Answer 16

r u comparing my answers to ur's? and did u get any others yet?

Answer 17

13 Across is "mutualism."

It was asking us for a specific type of symbiosis.

Answer 18

15 Down is asking us for a specific niche.

Vultures and crayfish are organisms,
but they each do something different, in the environment.

They eat dead animals.

So, we call them "scavengers."

Answer 19

for 13 i just spelled it wrong thats y it wouldn fit! lol whats the rest of them...there hard to find..

Answer 20

Just "scavenger" is fine.

Answer 21

Answer 31

If you have a question with any of these vocab words, I can explain them for you.

Answer 32

isnt 17 across benthic?

Answer 33

Benthic does fit, doesn't it?

I don't remember having seen it in the powerpoint though.

And I just asked google if sharks live in the benthic zone.

I found that they don't.

Answer 34

Sharks, I believe, live closer to the surface,
and farther out into the ocean.

The Pelagic zone is the part of the ocean that is far from shore,
and also far from the bottom.

Answer 45

So, the Ponderosa Pine provides animals with bark, twigs, and leaves, yes?

Answer 46

The Ponderosa Pine is probably also home to birds.

And it also provides acorns.

Answer 47

yeah

Answer 48

So, all in all, the Ponderosa Pine provides many things:

Bark, Twigs, Leaves, Acorns, and bird eggs (because it's home to birds.)

Answer 49

Now, what if the Ponderosa Pines died?

Do you see all the animals that eat the things that are given by the Ponderosa Pines?

Answer 50

no

Answer 51

Yeah you do.

Answer 52

The bark beetle, for example, eats bark.

Answer 53

?

Answer 54

And the Ponderosa Pine provides that bark. You get it?

Answer 55

oh so u mean the three populations would be extinct without the ponderosa pine right?

Answer 56

Not extinct. Because it wouldn't be that dramatic.
But you've got the right idea.

There are three animals, in the picture, that depend on the Ponderosa Pine, for food.
(Bark beetle is one of them)

And if the number of Ponderosa Pines went down,
those three populations of animals would also go down.

Answer 57

so bark beetle, gray squirrel and what else?

Answer 58

Bark beetles eat bark.

Mule deer eat twigs, leaves, and acorns.

Gray squirrels eat pine cones, acorns, and bird eggs.

All three of these animals depend on the Ponderosa Pine, for food.

And if the number of Ponderosa Pines went down,
these three animals would have a very limited food source.

Therefore, their populations would decrease, because many of them would die.

You get that?
