this allocation comes as part of the genetic package from the parents Maintenance for a given body design of an organism is relatively constant Storage is important, but ultimately that energy will be used for maintenance, reproduction, or growth Therefore the principal differences in energy allocation are likely to be between growth and reproduction Almost all of an organism’s energy can be diverted to reproduction, with very little allocated to building the body Organisms at this extreme are “opportunists.” At the other extreme are “competitors,” almost all of whose resources are invested in building a huge body, with a bare minimum allocated to reproduction Dandelions are good examples of opportunists Their seedheads raised just high enough above the ground to catch the wind, the plants are no bigger than they need be, their stems are hollow, and all the rigidity comes from their water content Thus, a minimum investment has been made in the body that becomes a platform for seed dispersal These very short-lived plants reproduce prolifically; that is to say they provide a constant rain of seed in the neighborhood of parent plants A new plant will spring up wherever a seed falls on a suitable soil surface, but because they not build big bodies, they cannot compete with other plants for space, water, or sunlight These plants are termed opportunists because they rely on their seeds’ falling into settings where competing plants have been removed by natural processes, such as along an eroding riverbank, on landslips, or where a tree falls and creates a gap in the forest canopy Opportunists must constantly invade new areas to compensate for being displaced by more competitive species Human landscapes of lawns, fields, or flowerbeds provide settings with bare soil and a lack of competitors that are perfect habitats for colonization by opportunists Hence, many of the strongly opportunistic plants are the common weeds of fields and gardens www.dethi.net – www.testtip.net- Gi i pháp thi TOEFL, GMAT, GRE, CCNA, MCSE, MCDBA, MCSD, CISCO, ORACLE TOEFL iBT- Nh ng u c n bi t Because each individual is short-lived, the population of an opportunist species is likely to be adversely affected by drought, bad winters, or floods If their population is tracked through time, it will be seen to be particularly unstable— soaring and plummeting in irregular cycles The opposite of an opportunist is a competitor These organisms tend to have big bodies, are long-lived, and spend relatively little effort each year on reproduction An oak tree is a good example of a competitor A massive oak claims its ground for 200 years or more, outcompeting all other would-be canopy trees by casting a dense shade and drawing up any free water in the soil The leaves of an oak tree taste foul because they are rich in tannins, a chemical that renders them distasteful or indigestible to many organisms The tannins are part of the defense mechanism that is essential to longevity Although oaks produce thousands of acorns, the investment in a crop of acorns is small compared with the energy spent on building leaves, trunk, and roots Once an oak tree becomes established, it is likely to survive minor cycles of drought and even fire A population of oaks is likely to be relatively stable through time, and its survival is likely to depend more on its ability to withstand the pressures of competition or predation than on its ability to take advantage of chance events It should be noted, however, that the pure opportunist or pure competitor is rare in nature, as most species fall between the extremes of a continuum, exhibiting a blend of some opportunistic and some competitive characteristics The word squander in the passage is closest in meaning to • • • • extend transform activate waste The word none in the passage refers to • • • • food plant or animal energy big body In paragraph 1, the author explains the concept of energy expenditure by • • • • identifying types of organisms that became extinct comparing the scientific concept to a familiar human experience arguing that most organisms conserve rather than expend energy describing the processes of growth, reproduction, and metabolism www.dethi.net – www.testtip.net- Gi i pháp thi TOEFL, GMAT, GRE, CCNA, MCSE, MCDBA, MCSD, CISCO, ORACLE TOEFL iBT- Nh ng u c n bi t Paragraph is marked with an arrow According to the passage, the classification of organisms as “opportunists” or “competitors” is determined by • • • • how the genetic information of an organism is stored and maintained the way in which the organism invests its energy resources whether the climate in which the organism lives is mild or extreme the variety of natural resources the organism consumes in its environment The word dispersal in the passage is closest in meaning to • • • • development growth distribution protection Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage? Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information • • • • Because their seeds grow in places where competing plants are no longer present, dandelions are classified as opportunists Dandelions are called opportunists because they contribute to the natural processes of erosion and the creation of gaps in the forest canopy The term opportunists applies to plants whose seeds fall in places where they can compete with the seeds of other plants The term opportunists applies to plants whose falling seeds are removed by natural processes The word massive in the passage is closest in meaning to • • • • huge ancient common successful All of the following are mentioned in paragraph as contributing to the longevity of an oak tree EXCEPT • • • the capacity to create shade leaves containing tannin the ability to withstand mild droughts and fire www.dethi.net – www.testtip.net- Gi i pháp thi TOEFL, GMAT, GRE, CCNA, MCSE, MCDBA, MCSD, CISCO, ORACLE TOEFL iBT- Nh ng u c n bi t • the large number of acorns the tree produces Paragraph is marked with an arrow According to the passage, oak trees are considered competitors because • • • • they grow in areas free of opportunists they spend more energy on their leaves, trunks and roots than on their acorns their population tends to increase or decrease in irregular cycles unlike other organisms, they not need much water or sunlight 10 In paragraph 7, the author suggests that most species of organisms • • • • are primarily opportunists are primarily competitors begin as opportunists and evolve into competitors have some characteristics of opportunists and some of competitors Paragraph is marked with an arrow 11 Look at the four squares be added to the passage that indicate where the following sentence could Such episodic events will cause a population of dandelions, for example, to vary widely Where would the sentence best fit?
