108 The type of climax vegetation associated with a terrestrial
biome is
primarily determined by yearly temperature variation and the
1 presence of animal predators
2 presence of climax fauna
3 number of deciduous trees
4 annual precipitation
109 A bird lives in a tree in a forest, where it builds a nest
and lays two eggs.
The chicks hatch, and the mother feeds the chicks insects she has
plucked
from the tree bark. This information helps most in determining the
bird's
1
niche
3 biomass
2 rate of metabolism 4 migratory
pattern
B ase your answers to questions 110 through 113 on the
information below
and on
your knowledge of biology.
An investigation was performed to determine the effect of
temperature on
the respiratory
rate of a goldfish. The respiratory rate was
measured by the
number of gill cover
movements per minute. The following data
were collected.
60 gill cover movements at 23oC
57 gill cover movements at 25oC
15 gill cover movements at l0oC
25 gill cover movements at 15oC
30 gill cover movements at 18oC
25 gill cover movements at 27oC

Complete both columns of the data table on your answer
paper so
that the
temperatures are increasing from the top to the bottom.
The data table. The data
table below is provided for practice purposes
only. Be sure your final answer
appears on your answer paper. You may use
pen
or pencil for your answer.

Directions (111-112): Using the information in the data table,
construct a
line
graph on the grid provided on your answer paper, following
the directions below.
The grid on the next page is provided for
practice purposes
only. Be sure your
final answer appears on your answer paper. You
may
use pen or pencil for your answer.
111 Mark an appropriate scale on each labeled axis.
112 Plot the data from the data table. Surround each point with
a small
circle
and connect the points.


113 Which inference is best supported by the data?
1 The higher the temperature, the
higher the rate of gill cover movements
of goldfish.
2 At both 10o'C and 27oC, goldfish use less
energy than at 23oC.
3 Goldfish are not affected as water temperature increases from 10oC
to 27oC.
4 Goldfish reproduce more successfully in water at 15oC
than at 27oC.
