Ecology Productivity Quiz

What does GPP stand for in ecology?

• Global Pollution Prevention

• Great Planting Process

• Giant Panda Preservation

• Gross Primary Productivity

Which subtopic of ecology is concerned with the total amount of organic matter produced by plants through photosynthesis?

• Primary productivity

• Secondary productivity

• Tertiary productivity

• Quaternary productivity

What is the difference between GPP and NPP?

• GPP is the amount of energy left after plants use some for their own growth and maintenance, while NPP is the total amount of energy produced by plants.

• GPP is the total amount of energy produced by plants, while NPP is the amount of energy left after plants use some for their own growth and maintenance.

• GPP and NPP are the same and can be used interchangeably.

• NPP is the total amount of energy produced by plants, while GPP is the amount of energy left after plants use some for their own growth and maintenance.

What is the formula to calculate NPP?

• NPP = GPP + R

• NPP = GPP / R

• NPP = GPP * R

• NPP = GPP - R

What does GSP represent in ecology?

• Gross Primary Production

• Great Secondary Production

• Global Sustainability Program

• Greenhouse Gas Protocol

Which subtopic of ecology is concerned with the amount of energy stored in plant tissues after respiration?

• Primary productivity

• Secondary productivity

• Tertiary productivity

• Quaternary productivity

What is the formula to calculate NSP?

• (Total number of syllables + Total number of words) / 100

• (Total number of syllables / Total number of words) * 100

• (Total number of syllables * Total number of words) / 100

• (Total number of words / Total number of syllables) * 100

What is the relationship between GPP and NPP?

• GPP and NPP are unrelated concepts in ecology.

• NPP is the amount of energy available for consumption by herbivores and other organisms after plants have used some for their own growth and maintenance.

• GPP is the amount of energy available for consumption by herbivores and other organisms after plants have used some for their own growth and maintenance.

• NPP is the total amount of energy produced by plants through photosynthesis.

What factors can affect the productivity of an ecosystem?

• Color of the sky, type of soil, number of clouds

• Distance from the equator, size of the moon, smell of the air

• Number of stars in the sky, shape of the clouds, taste of the water

• Climate, availability of resources, biodiversity, and human activities

How does human activity impact the productivity of an ecosystem?

• Human activity has no impact on the productivity of an ecosystem

• Human activity only benefits the productivity of an ecosystem

• The productivity of an ecosystem is not affected by human activity

• Human activity can impact the productivity of an ecosystem through pollution, habitat destruction, and overexploitation of resources.
