Questions and Answers

What is the primary role of decomposers in an ecosystem?

  • They recycle nutrients from dead organisms. (correct)
  • They compete with plants for sunlight.
  • They produce energy through photosynthesis.
  • They regulate the populations of herbivores.
  • Which statement accurately describes energy transfer in trophic levels?

  • Only 10% of energy transfers to the next trophic level. (correct)
  • All energy is retained and used efficiently by higher levels.
  • Energy increases as it goes up to each trophic level.
  • Each level contributes equally to the energy available for the next.
  • Why are apex predators typically fewer in numbers compared to other organisms in a food web?

  • They have a much higher metabolism than other organisms.
  • They are at the top and face less predation.
  • Energy is lost at each trophic level, making it scarce. (correct)
  • They require more food than primary producers can supply.

    Study Notes

    Grade 4 Science Q2 Periodic Test

    • Question 1: Human movement is facilitated by bones.
    • Question 2: The skeletal system's crucial function is providing structural support and enabling upright posture.
    • Question 3: The femur is the longest and strongest bone in the human body.
    • Question 4: Muscles support the body and enable lifting heavy objects.
    • Question 5: The circulatory system delivers oxygen and nutrients to muscles during physical activity.
    • Question 6: The respiratory system's primary function is exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs.
    • Question 7: Deep breathing after exercise is a direct result of the respiratory system regulating body temperature.
    • Question 8: The digestive system breaks down food into smaller molecules, leading to feelings of fullness.
    • Question 9: The stomach and intestines work together by digesting food and absorbing nutrients and water.
    • Question 10: The heart pumps blood to the body, and the lungs filter blood returned to the heart.
    • Question 11: Plant root systems anchor the plant in the soil.
    • Question 12: Stems in a plant's shoot system transport water and nutrients throughout the plant.
    • Question 13: Leaves contribute to a plant's functions by capturing sunlight for photosynthesis.
    • Question 14: Both root and shoot systems are essential for a plant because root systems absorb nutrients, and shoot systems carry out photosynthesis.
    • Question 15: Well-developed root and shoot systems indicate a plant is thriving.
    • Question 16: A habitat is the area where plants and animals reside and live ecologically.
    • Question 17: Terrestrial habitats include forests, grasslands, and deserts.
    • Question 18: Aquatic environments are home to animals with gills and fins.
    • Question 19: Birds and insects primarily populate terrestrial and aerial habitats.
    • Question 20: Wildlife habitats provide shelter and resources for survival.
    • Question 21: Mangrove swamps are home to organisms including mussels, fish, corals, and certain insects.
    • Question 22: Sea shores support creatures such as clams, crabs, and sea horses, but not birds.
    • Question 23: Garden ecosystems can contain a range of plants and animals including trees, flowers, and rats.
    • Question 24: Bees play an important role in garden ecosystems as pollinators.
    • Question 25: Cutting down mangrove trees can result in habitat loss and impacts on local communities.
    • Question 26: Metamorphosis describes an animal's physical development after birth or hatching.
    • Question 27: Complete metamorphosis involves four stages, while incomplete metamorphosis has three.
    • Question 28: A tadpole transforms into a froglet by losing gills and a tail.
    • Question 29: Child development involves learning basic motor skills like walking and talking, as well as becoming increasingly independent.
    • Question 30: Adolescence is a period of significant change with both physical and developmental changes.
    • Question 31: Omnivores consume both plants and animals.
    • Question 32: A lion is a carnivore.
    • Question 33: Herbivores obtain food by consuming plants.
    • Question 34: Omnivores have specific teeth for processing both plant and animal matter.
    • Question 35: Omnivores contribute to ecosystem balance by regulating plant and animal populations.
    • Question 36: A primary consumer is correctly referred to as a herbivore.
    • Question 37: Bacteria are decomposers.
    • Question 38: Decomposers break down dead organisms, returning nutrients to the environment.
    • Question 39: Transferring energy throughout trophic levels is inefficient, but only around 10% of the energy is transferred to the next level.
    • Question 40: Apex predators are fewer at the top of the food web because energy is lost as heat with each transfer between trophic levels.
