Which of these is NOT a resource?
The answer is plastic.
Resources are defined as a substance or object in the environment required by an organism for normal growth, maintenance, and reproduction. Resources can be consumed by one organism and, as a result, become unavailable to another organism. When resources are limited, “competition,” increases and some populations of organisms will decrease. Some individuals may even be weaker or smaller without the resources they need.
Natural disasters, environmental changes, and humans can all have an effect on the availability of resources. When a drought occurs, many plants and animals die. When forests are cleared for human use, animals and plants do not have habitat.
Some animals are technically a “resource” for others. The predator prey relationship consists of the interactions between two species and their consequent effects on each other. In the predator prey relationship, one species is feeding on the other species. The prey species is the animal being fed on, and the predator is the animal being fed. Usually these populations go through cycles.

If a drought were to occur which of these would be affected by the lack of resources?
The answer is "all of these would be effected" because all organisms need water. Additionally some animals eat plants, and humans eat animals.

Which is most likely the reason that sharing habitat with lions would cause there to be limited resources for cheetahs?
The answer is "they feed on the same prey."

Sharks are often hunted for their fins. The overfishing of sharks can affect the availability of phytoplankton even though they are at opposite ends of their food chain. How is this possible?
The answer is "any disruption in a food chain will have affects on other populations of organisms in the same food chain."

In desert environments, fresh water is a limited resource. Which of these is NOT a way organisms have responded to the lack of availability of water?
The answer is "animals spend more time in the sun than they usually would." This would require more water from their bodies to be used in the cooling process when water is already scarce. Most animals spend more time in the shade when water is not readily available.

Limited resources are affecting population growth in a habitat. What type of graph best represents this scenario?
The answer is "logarithmic, or "S shaped" curve" because when resources are limited, populations can only increase to a certain carrying capacity then population growth will level out.

The image shows growth for population A and population B. Which population has limited resources?
The answer is population B, because it has reached carrying capacity and is no longer growing.
