THIS DIAGRAM DEMONSTRATES THE LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION OF ORGANISMS IN A FEEDING WEB AND SHOWS ENERGY TRANSFER FROM ONE LEVEL TO THE NEXT
What is THE ENERGY PYRAMID
100
Energy flows directly from the sun to this.
What are producers?
100
Photosynthesis is a process that makes
What food for plants?
100
Hair color, eye color and skin color are genetic traits that are passed from
What is generation to generation?
100
Energy flow is visualized using these three things.
What are food chains, food webs and energy pyramids?
200
All organisms require this to live.
What is energy?
200
Energy flows from producers to this.
What are primary consumers?
200
Green plants make their own food because they contain this substance that absorbs energy form the sun.
What is chlorophyll?
200
In all environments, organisms with similar needs may compete with one another for this.
What are resources? food, space, water, ect.
200
Feeding relationships among producers, consumers and decomposers in an ecosystem are identified by this.
What is a food web?
300
ARE NECESSARY ORGANISMS NOT USUALLY SEEN IN A FOOD WEB OR ENERGY PYRAMID BUT VITAL FOR A STABLE ECOSYSTEM
What are DECOMPOSERS?
300
Energy flows from primary consumers to this.
What are secondary consumers?
300
Chlorophyll is stored in this organelle found in green plants.
What are chloroplasts?
300
If a species does not adapt to the environment in which they live, they can become this.
What is extinct?
300
Matter is transferred from one organism to another and between organisms and their physical environment. Examples of the substances being cycled are
MUST give at least two.
What is oxygen, water, carbon dioxide and nitrogen?
400
All energy originates from this.
What is the sun?
400
Energy flows from consumers to this.
What are decomposers?
400
During photosynthesis, the Sun's energy is converted into and stored as chemical energy in the form of this.
What is sugar?
400
We know that a great variety of species existed in the past because of the presence of these.
What are fossils?
400
All living things cannot survive without this
What is energy?
500
The methods of obtaining energy vary among organisms. Producers use this to make their own food.
What is light energy?
500
This amount of energy is lost at each level of the food energy pyramid.
What is 90%?
500
The quantity of sugar molecules increases in green pkants during photosynthesis in the presence of this.
What is sunlight?
500
Many thousands of layers of sedimentary rock provide evidence for the long history of Earth and for the long history of changing life forms whose remains are found in the this.
