Explanation:

• Five black bears: A population is a group of individuals of the same species living in a particular area. Here, five black - bears (same species) form a population.
• Forest, aquatic, desert, grasslands, tundra: These are different biomes. A biome is a large - scale ecosystem characterized by its climate, vegetation, and animal life.
• One black bear: An organism is a single, individual living being. One black bear is an organism.
• Bears, Salmon, deer, elk, wolves, raccoons, owls, bald eagles, ferns, grass, moss: A community is all the populations of different species that live and interact in an area. This group of different species (plants and animals) forms a community.
• Bears, Salmon, deer, elk, wolves, raccoons, owls, bald eagles, ferns, grass, moss, photosynthesis, rocks, sand, rainfall, oxygen: An ecosystem includes all the living organisms (community) and the non - living components (like rocks, sand, rainfall, oxygen) in an area.
• Tundra: The biosphere is the global sum of all ecosystems. But tundra is a biome. However, if we consider the options given, tundra is a biome.

Answer:

• Five black bears: Population
• Forest, aquatic, desert, grasslands, tundra: Biome
• One black bear: Organism
• Bears, Salmon, deer, elk, wolves, raccoons, owls, bald eagles, ferns, grass, moss: Community
• Bears, Salmon, deer, elk, wolves, raccoons, owls, bald eagles, ferns, grass, moss, photosynthesis, rocks, sand, rainfall, oxygen: Ecosystem
• Tundra: Biome
