Forest
Explanation

Habitat analogy: Ocean supports fish, while forest supports trees.

#2

Pollution is to environment as disease is to _______.

Health
Explanation

Analogy: Pollution harms the environment, and disease harms health.

#3

If deforestation is to trees, then overfishing is to _______.

Fish
Explanation

Analogy: Deforestation reduces trees, overfishing reduces fish.

#4

Ecology is to environment as epidemiology is to _______.

Medicine
Explanation

Field analogy: Ecology studies environment, epidemiology studies diseases in medicine.

#5

Analogous to deforestation, which of the following is analogous to desertification?

Drought
Explanation

Process analogy: Deforestation is to trees as desertification is to land.

#6

Analogous to a zoo preserving endangered species, what is analogous to seed banks preserving plant diversity?

Botanical Garden
Explanation

Conservation analogy: Zoo preserves animals, botanical garden preserves plant diversity.

#7

Analogous to invasive species disrupting ecosystems, which of the following disrupts the balance of atmospheric gases?

Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Explanation

Disruption analogy: Invasive species disrupt ecosystems, greenhouse gas emissions disrupt atmospheric balance.

#8

Analogous to a national park protecting wildlife, what is analogous to a marine protected area?

Marine Reserve
Explanation

Conservation analogy: National park protects land wildlife, marine reserve protects marine life.

#9

If habitat loss is to biodiversity, then pollution is to _______.

Environmental Degradation
Explanation

Analogy: Habitat loss harms biodiversity, pollution harms the environment.

#10

If habitat loss is to deforestation, then coral bleaching is to _______.

Ocean Acidification
Explanation

Analogy: Habitat loss affects forests, coral bleaching affects coral reefs, both lead to environmental issues like deforestation leads to ocean acidification.

#11

If climate change is to rising sea levels, then ozone depletion is to _______.

Increased UV Radiation
Explanation

Impact analogy: Climate change leads to rising sea levels, ozone depletion leads to increased UV radiation.

#12

If habitat fragmentation is to isolation of species, then eutrophication is to _______.

Algal Blooms
Explanation

Analogy: Habitat fragmentation isolates species, eutrophication leads to algal blooms.

#13

If biodiversity loss is to extinction, then desertification is to _______.

Land Degradation
Explanation

Analogy: Biodiversity loss leads to extinction, desertification leads to land degradation.

#14
