How much energy does a consumer receive from the organism it eats?
10%
A interconnected system of food chains is called:
Food Web
A mark or depression made by pressure.
Imprint
These organisms eat only plants.
Herbivore
What types of organisms use photosynthesis?
Producers (plants)
In this diagram, the mountain lion is a... (looking for the order of classification).
Secondary consumer.
A small representation of a concept to help us better understand it.
Model
When a group of organisms exceeds its carrying capacity beyond what the ecosystem can sustain, what do we call it?
Overpopulation
These organisms eat both plants and animals.
Omnivores
People use the oxygen given off in photosynthesis to breaths. Plants use the carbon dioxide humans exhale in photosynthesis. What is this type of relationship called?
Symbiotic relationship.
How much of the original energy does the secondary consumer receive when it eats the primary consumer.
1%
An organism that eats other organisms for food is called a...
Consumer
DAILY DOUBLE!
If we didn't have producers in our environment, what would happen?
All acceptable:
Herbivores wouldn't have food/would die.
We would have too much carbon dioxide/not enough oxygen.
An organism that creates energy (food) through photosynthesis.
A producer
What is the center of all ecosystems/the catalyst for photosynthesis?
What percentage of original energy do tertiary consumers receive?
.1%
A preserved part of a plant or animal that was once living.
Fossil

Impact
What do carnivores eat?
other animals (meat).
Producers give off these two things during photosynthesis.
Oxygen, energy
The first consumer to eat the producer is called the...
primary consumer

Ecosystem
A squirrel's habitat is destroyed! All the trees have been cut down. The squirrel finds a near by brick fence and burrows inside to build a nest. This is an example of...
An adaptation
These organisms break dead plants and animals remains, without the need for internal digestion.
Decomposer
Producers need these three things for photosynthesis to happen.
Carbon dioxide, sunlight, water
