Ecology flashcards
Every deck we have for Ecology, part of AQA GCSE Biology. 134 questions written against the published specification, free to study with no account. Each deck schedules its own reviews, so cards you find hard come back sooner than ones you have already got right.
Adaptations, Competition and Interdependence
26 cardsWhat organisms compete for, abiotic and biotic factors, structural behavioural and functional adaptations, extremophiles, and why communities depend on each other.
Sampling and the Organisation of an Ecosystem
28 cardsLevels of organisation from individual to ecosystem, food chains and predator prey cycles, and the required practical using quadrats and transects.
Cycling Materials and Decomposition
26 cardsThe water cycle and the carbon cycle, the role of decomposers, what affects the rate of decay, and how compost and biogas make use of it.
Biodiversity and Human Impact
28 cardsWhy biodiversity matters, pollution of land water and air, deforestation and peat destruction, global warming and its effects, and programmes to protect species.
Trophic Levels and Food Security
26 cardsTrophic levels and pyramids of biomass, why so little biomass is transferred between levels, threats to food security, and sustainable farming and fishing. Biology only content.
