with your NAME and the answers to these 5 questions:
(No need to repeat the questions; the answers alone will do.)

  • 1. The major primary producers at the base of the food chain in aquatic ecosystems usually belong to what group? (Be very specific; "algae" and "phytoplankton" are both too broad.)
  • 2. The saber-tooth blenny mimics what other species?
  • 3. Name a genus of organisms with two similar and equal flagella. (Look for an illustration that shows two flagella that look the same.)
  • 4. What is the general term for organisms that can use carbon dioxide to make their own carbon compounds? (NOTE: Many different kinds of organisms can do this, so don't just name one group.)
  • 5. What do camembert cheese and penicillin have in common?
