This document contains a quiz on general ecology concepts. It includes identification questions about key ecologists and terms, multiple choice questions about topics like dispersal mechanisms and human impacts, an essay section requiring examples and explanations of metapopulation dynamics and geographic species distribution, and a bonus question about reporters' birthdays. The quiz covers population ecology, community interactions, spacing patterns, disturbance impacts, and dispersal across various scales from individual populations to global distributions.

1 of 2
Name: Gen. Ecology Lecture Quiz I. IDENTIFICATION. Write the correct answer on the space provided. __________1. Who is the naturalist that coined the term, population of a population? __________2. The type of spacing pattern that usually occurs as a response to uneven distribution of resources in the immediate environment. __________3. The density of an organism in an environment. __________4. Sub-field of ecology that deals with the dynamics of species population. __________5. It is when a network of distinct populations that interact with one another by exchanging individuals. II. MULTIPLE CHOICE. Encircle the letter that best describe the questions. 1. The process by which seeds develop in order for them to be pollinated by means of wind, animals and humans. a. Dispersal mechanism b. Seed germination c. Gravity d. All of the above 2. Human effect is a. How people serve as dispersal agents of species b. The effect of being different to animals c.
