ZOO 507 Quiz 1 Spring 2020

Topic: 89 to 120

  1. The process of successful establishment of species in the new area is called ecesis.
  2. Mechanism of thermoregulation regulate in the body of an organism. temperature
  3. All are example of endoparasite except one Flea
  4. Temperature is important for All of the above
  5. As species richness and evenness increase, species diversity will increase.
  6. which one of the following is not a character of a community curiosity
  7. Hibernation in large animal is like bear is termed as winter sleep
  8. Commensalism is a relationship useful for one species and second is neither helped nor harmed
  9. Mutualism is a ____ relationship useful for both species
  10. Aggregation of population of different species living together in a specific area constitutes a biotic

community

  1. Community structure is essentially the composition of a community, including the number of species in that community and their relative numbers.
  2. The formation of a climax community from and abandoned farmland is an example of secondary

succession

  1. Amphibians, fish and reptiles cannot maintain their body temperature rather it fluctuates with environmental temperature they are called poikilotherms.
  2. A self regulating, self sustaining and independent unit of community is called Major Community
  3. Which one of the following is not an example of major community? Plant
  4. The hypothalamus work like a/an thermostat
  5. Animals like birds and mammals that maintain their internal body temperature constant are

homeotherms

  1. Sunlight is very important factor in photosynthesis
  2. The term thermoregulation is used for maintenance of an internal body temperature of an organism
  3. Products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen
  4. normal body temperature of human being is 37 degree c
  5. How many biotic community are there? 3
  6. Which of the following is not true about torper? Higher metabolic activty
  7. The contribution of each plant species to the vegetation can be defined Species composition
  8. The daily time of decreased metabolism and lowered body temperature is called Hibernation
  9. Species richness is the number of different species in a particular community
  10. Species richness is defined as the number of species represented in a specific region, landscape or an ecological community.
  11. Hibernation can be defined as to sleep for an extended period of time during the winter.
  12. The nonliving components of an ecosystem, such as temperature, precipitation, wind and soil are

abiotic factors

  1. What is the difference between evolution and coevolution? coevolution results when two or more
  2. Which of the following describes a coevolutionary relationship? None of the above, on its own, describes a coevolutionary relationship.
  3. Aestivation is also called summer sleep
  4. Which of the following is not responsible for heat loss? Excessive fat deposits
  5. Those animal which regulate their body temperature by external sources like sunlight or a heated Rock are called ectotherms
  6. Types of animals which can approximately maintain their constant body temperature are called

endothermic

  1. The number of individuals per species is called Species abundance
  2. Low quality energy is dispersed form of energy
  3. Which of the following is not the character of ectotherms? Generate body heat due to high

metabolic rate

  1. Which one of these are true hibernators? All of the above(bats, insectivore, ground squirrels, etc)
  2. A mutualistic Association between algae and fungus in which both the partners get benefits from each other is known as lichen
  3. What is lichens? Association between algae and fungus
  4. Sunlight is very important factor in photosynthesis
  5. The major difference between hibernation and torpor is hibernation is a deeper sleep
  6. In ectotherms, external forces control body temperature
  7. How many types of ecological succession are there? two
  8. The contribution of each plant species to the vegetation can be defined as species composition
  9. Which of the following animals do not go under winter sleep? snail
  10. Which of the following factor is not responsible for heat loss? Excessive Fat Deposits
  11. On the basis of wavelength there are all 2 type of electromagnetic radiations
  12. Species abundance is the number of individuals per species
  13. Which of the following is not a high quality energy? Moonlight
  14. Human eye can detect electromagnetic radiation of wavelength range? 380 to 740 nm
  15. During cold shivering occurs to generate heat from respiration
  16. A form of kinetic-energy, in which energy travel in the form of a wave as a result of changes in electric and magnetic fields are electromagnetic-radiations
  17. Those animals which regulate their body temperature by external sources like sunlight or heated rock surface are called ectotherms
  18. During sweating body surface temperature of an organism decreases
  19. What is called for the process when older communities of plants and animals are replaced by newer communities? Ecological succession
  20. camouflage is a kind of coloration or pattern that help an animal to appear to blend with its surroundings
  21. Arousal from torpor takes around one hour and involves violent shaking and muscle contraction. animal that exhibit torpor are All of the above (Bear, raccoon, skunks)
  22. What is called when two species trigger evolutionary changes in each other? Coevolution
  23. Electromagnetic radiations of short wavelength have more energy content than electromagnetic radiations of long wavelength
  24. Australian burrowing frog goes under aestivation
  25. During hibernation the body temperature of animal drops and it heartbeat and its breathing slows down with minimum use of energy
  26. The final stable community in an ecological succession is called the climax community
  27. Which one of these is not true about hibernation? Also known as summer sleep
  28. The torpid state may last for months
  29. The structure of community is the result of many interacting factors both abiotic (non-living) and biotic (living organisms related)
  30. What is the difference between evolution and coevolution? Coevolution results will two or more
