1 The most famous deep sea submersible is named
A AlvinB BeebeC PichardD Deep Sea #5
2 Which of the following is an example of an organism using chromatophores:
A B
C D
3 Which of the following is NOT an accurate description of coastal waters:
A They are euryhaline & eurythermal
B They are relatively shallow & adjoin continents
C They are isothermal in the midsummer & midwinter
D They are heavily used for commerce & recreation
4 Minamata disease is associated with which toxic element:
A Cadmium
B Lead
C Petroleum
D Mercury
5 The earliest recorded sea voyage was by the
A Egyptians
B Greeks
C Phoenicians
D Polynesians
6 All of the following are adaptations for plankton dealing with the viscosity of water EXCEPT:
A Warm-water copepods have many appendages
B Many plankton have a small surface area to volume ration in order to maximize the buoyant force of water
C Many plankton produce a small amount of oil to help keep themselves lower in the water column
D Cold-water copepods are more hydrodynamic
7 All of the following zones are aphotic EXCEPT:
A hadal
B mesopelagic
C bathypelagic
D abysopelagic
8 The largest ocean garbage patch can be found in the:
A Atlantic Ocean
B Pacific Ocean
C Arctic Ocean
D Indian Ocean
9 The Phoenicians
A invented the compass
B where the first to drill for oil
C stayed within sight of land while on the water
D invented fish hooks
10 Which of the following is FALSE when considering coastal wetlands:
A They are ideal locations for larger predators to hunt
B They can be found in low & mid latitudes
C The water is considered brackishD They are defined as saturated areas that
border coastal environments
11 Bioaccumulation can be defined as:
A The amount of energy that is retained with each increasing level of the food chain is only 10%
B 90% of the energy from the lower-levels of the food chain is l ost to the environment as thermal & other forms of energy
C A substance building up in the tissues of organisms and increasing in toxicity up the food chain
D A substance building up in the tissues of higher-level organisms & causing a toxic trickle-down effect on lower-level organisms
12 An organism that survives by being part of the deep scattering layer (DSL) would most likely be found in which of the following zones:
A Hadal
B Epipelagic
C Euphotic
D Bathypelagic
13 All of the following are reasons why coastal waters are disproportionately effect by pollution, EXCEPT:
A They are relatively shallow, so pollutants are more concentrated
B They are better circulated than open ocean, so more pollution is draw in
C Sources of both chemical & thermal pollution are often found nearby
D They are heavily used by humans for commerce, recreation, and fisheries
14 Which of the following is FALSE when considering petroleum-based pollution:
A Petroleum is biodegradable, therefore is not considered to be highly damaging in comparison to other pollutants
B Petroleum will stay on the surface of water
C Petroleum spills mainly effect low-level creatures, such as phytoplankton, that rely on sunlight for survival
D Petroleum spills have a longer-lasting effect on fully aquatic organisms such as fish than semi-aquatic organisms such as gulls & terns
15 All of the following are known to have a negative bioaccumulating affect EXCEPT:
A Nitrogenous byproducts from fertilizers (TAN)
B Mercury (Hg)
C Polychlorinated biphenyl
D Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT)
