Date: _______ Easy Medium HardIdentify the basic characteristics of organisms, including prokaryotic or eukaryotic, unicellular or multicellular, autotrophic or heterotrophic, and mode of reproduction, that further classify them in the currently recognized Kingdoms. All living things are classified or grouped into 6 Kingdoms. The characteristics of each organism will determine the Kingdom to which it belongs.

  3. Weekly Bellringer 7th Grade Supporting Standards Review Date: __________ Easy Medium Hard How does biodiversity contribute to the sustainability of an ecosystem? The greater the biodiversity in an ecosystem, the greater the sustainability, however all ecosystems change over time as their populations transition through a natural ecological succession toward a climax population. A healthy ecosystem exhibits biological diversity within and between trophic levels. As biodiversity of an ecosystem increases, the ability to withstand environmental stress due to the loss of a single species or group also increases, improving the sustainability of the ecosystem. The higher the biodiversity of an ecosystem, the better that ecosystem can withstand environmental stress. Hence, if biodiversity is lost, that ecosystem has less ability to withstand the same environmental stress. • 1. Biodiversity means that ____________. • a. there are only a few *specialized organisms • b. there are many, many different organisms • c. all the biotic factors have been removed • 2. Why does biodiversity insure an ecosystem’s sustainability? Circle all answers that apply • a. So a small change in a population doesn’t cause a major change in the rest of the ecosystem. • b. When there are a lot of different organisms, competition for recourses are better balanced. • c. The competition for survival is extremely high • d. When the ecosystem consists of many populations, the *interdependent organisms are less affected by the loss of one specific population. • 3. Which of the following most likely supports the most sustainable ecosystem? • a. the habitat with the greatest number of green plants • b. the habitat with the greatest variety of living things • c. the habitat with the warmest average temperature • the habitat with the greatest number of consumers • 4. Which picture shows the most biodiverse ecosystem? • .

  4. Weekly Bellringer 7th Grade Supporting Standards Review __________ : Easy Medium Hard Model the effects of human activity on groundwater and surface water in a watershed • Surface runoff • Dumping of waste • Algal bloom • Subsidence • Likely caused by agricultural runoff • Likely caused by over-pumping Circle the most appropriate term Groundwater / Surface water is water found in the ground in underground reservoirs called a/an lake/aquifer. Groundwater / Surface water is water that flows over Earth’s surface. Smaller streams and gullies flow into either larger moving bodies of water such as rivers or into still bodies of water like lakes and ponds. Eventually all of this water flows into oceans. Water sources are effected by both point source and non-point source pollution. Provide one example of each and explain. Point source pollution _________________________________________________________________ Non-point source pollution_______________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________ Rainwater flowing into a storm drain A student builds a model to show how pollutants move through an ecosystem. In a plastic tub, the student places a layer of small marbles, covers it with a thick cloth, and then adds a layer of sand. The student then sprinkles red powdered paint on top of the soil. When the student sprays water onto the model, red color appears in the cloth and in the water in the layer of marbles. Which part of the model represents pollutants introduced by humans? Write your explanation below. Sewer pipe leading into a reservoir sinkhole Ducks on a murky pond __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ If the cause of specific pollution can be traced back to a particular event or place, it is called _______________________ pollution. Water in a watershed always flows ______________ and eventually end up in the ________________. What could be an easy way to prevent non-point source pollution? A. Keep businesses and industries from disposing of hazardous chemicals. B. Farmers can make sure that waste treatment tanks do not spill or leak into the groundwater. C. Only wash your car when it rains. Use only organic fertilizers and natural pesticides on your lawn to reduce the amount of runoff containing harmful chemicals.

  16. Weekly Bellringer 6th Grade Supporting Standards Review Date: __________ Easy Medium Hard Understand that gravity is the force that governs the motion of our solar system. Fill in the blanks using words from the word bank. decreases energy gravity rotate Gravity is a forceof attraction between two or more objects with mass. The more mass an object has, the more gravitationalforceit has. As the distance between objects increases, the gravitational force between them decreases. The Sun has the most massorgravitationalforceof any object in our solar system therefore it has the greatest gravitational influence on all other bodies in the solar system. The celestial bodies in space move about in predictable paths called orbits. As a result, a planet is able to revolve around the Sun. Other objects in the solar system also revolve around the Sun. These objects include asteroids, comets, and moons. Continue on the back

  17. Weekly Bellringer 7th Grade Supporting Standards Review Date: __________ Easy Medium Hard Calculate work. Work = Force x Distance How much work was done when you pushed a box across the floor with 50 N of force for 5 m? Show your work. 50 N x 5 m = 250 J How would the amount of work differ if you push with 50 N of force but the object did not move? Explain. 50 N x 0 m = 0 J Calculate work using simple machine. (Work = Force x Distance) Simple machines reduce the force / distance / work ? Simple machines increase the force / distance / work ? If you had to lift a box with 100 N of force to raise it 1.5 meters, how much work was done? Show your work 100 N x 1.5 m = 150 J To make it easier, you build a 7 meter ramp. Using the amount of work done in the question above, calculate how much force it would take to push the box up the ramp. Show your work. 150 J / 7 m = 21.4 N Which situation would require the least amount of work to push a 10 kg mass? Explain. All the same work. Longer ramp = less force, but same work. Lifting the box straight up 1 m (Force = 60N) Pushing the box up a 3 m ramp (Force = 20 N) Pushing the box up a 6 m ramp (Force = 10 N)
