5
$200 Question from Effects Chemicals can enter organisms through diffusion, true or false?
6
$200 Answer from Effects False
7
$300 Question from Effects Harmful chemicals can effect the immune system, true or false?
8
$300 Answer from Effects True
9
$400 Question from Effects What system of the orcas are most negatively affected by bioaccumulation?
10
$400 Answer from Effects The reproductive system.
11
$500 Question from Effects Why do newborn orcas have a higher concentration of toxins than their parents?
12
$500 Answer from Effects Newborn orca calves have the same PCB level as it’s mother, but it gains more through consuming it’s mother’s fat rich milk.
13
$100 Question from Mitigation Can bacteria be used for bioremediation?
14
$100 Answer from Mitigation Yes
15
$200 Question from Mitigation How can plants be used for bioremediation?
16
$200 Answer from Mitigation Plants can be used as natural traps to biodegrade hazardous wastes in soil, taking in and concentrating heavy metals in their tissues. They can also aid in stabilizing soil.
17
$300 Question from Mitigation Do forest industries use bioremediation?
18
$300 Answer from Mitigation Yes
19
$400 Question from Mitigation Bacteria can remove chemicals through osmosis, true or false?
20
$400 Answer from Mitigation False
21
$500 Question from Mitigation What is created when lead-contaminated soil is mixed with phosphate fertilizer?
22
$500 Answer from Mitigation Pyromorphite is created.
23
$100 Question from Pollutants Define heavy metals.
24
$100 Answer from Pollutants Heavy metals are metallic elements with a high density that are toxic to organisms.
25
$200 Question from Pollutants Is lead naturally present in all soils?
26
$200 Answer from Pollutants Yes.
27
$300 Question from Pollutants Where is cadmium found?
28
$300 Answer from Pollutants Earth’s crust
29
$400 Question from Pollutants How many tonnes of mercury are released through natural sources annually?
30
$400 Answer from Pollutants 6000 tonnes.
31
$500 Question from Pollutants How is methylmercury created.
32
$500 Answer from Pollutants Methylmercury is created by bacterial in the soil changing compounds such as mercury sulfide.
33
$100 Question from Vocabulary What is Biomagnification?
34
$100 Answer from Vocabulary Biomagnification is the process in which chemicals accumulate and concentrate at each trophic level.
35
$200 Question from Vocabulary Define Keystone Species.
36
$200 Answer from Vocabulary Keystone species are species that can greatly affect population numbers and the health of an ecosystem.
37
$300 Question from Vocabulary What does ppm stand for?
38
$300 Answer from Vocabulary ppm stands for parts per million
39
$400 Question from Vocabulary Define bioaccumuluation.
40
$400 Answer from Vocabulary The gradual build-up of synthetic and organic chemicals in living organisms.
41
$500 Question from Vocabulary What is Bioremediation?
42
$500 Answer from Vocabulary Bioremediation is the use of organisms-usually micro- organisms or plants- water or soil to reverse or lessen environmental damage.
43
$100 Question from Process Bioaccumulation occurs when chemicals are excreted far faster than it could be taken in, true or false?
44
$100 Answer from Process False
45
$200 Question from Process If the keystone species are affected, the ecosystem will be effected heavily, true or false?
46
$200 Answer from Process True.
47
$300 Question from Process Why do chemicals get more concentrated at higher trophic levels?
48
$300 Answer from Process Higher trophic levels have more chemical accumulation due to their prey having consumed high amounts of chemicals already.
