Ecosystems
What does abiotic mean? Give an example of an abiotic feature in an ecosystem.
Abiotic is a non-living feature in an ecosystem. Ex. rock, water, soil, etc.
Name the three types of organism in a food web.
Producer, consumer, and decomposer.
A plant is what type of organism?
Producer
What system brings nutrients to the body?
Digestive system
A system is many parts working together to create something or maintain something. Ex. A car has many parts that work together to transport someone one place to another.
What is an ecosystem?
Ecosystem- living and non-living things working together.
What type of organism is a worm?
Decomposer
Plants use _____ to create their own food.
Photosynthesis
What system involves circulating nutrients and oxygen through the body through red blood cells?
Circulatory system
How is the digestive system a system? Make sure to include the body parts.
The digestive system is a system, because the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine, work together to deliver nutrients to the body and expel waste to maintain the body's health.
What is a habitat? Give an example of a habitat?
A habitat is the natural place that organisms live. Ex. Woodlands, desert, ocean, arctic, etc.
What is a food web?
A food web is a diagram to show the flow of energy from producer to various consumers.
_____ is the cell that gives the plant nutrients and turns it green.
Chlorophyl
What body system brings in oxygen and expells carbon dioxide?
Respiratory System
How is the respiratory system a system?
The respiratory system is a system, because the mouth, trachea, and lungs work together to bring in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide to maintain the health of the body.
Biotic is a living organism. Ex, any animal, plant, insect, or decomposer.
How much energy is passed from producer to primary consumer, to secondary consumer?
10% or 1/10 of the energy.
A plant needs ___, _____, and _____ for photosynthesis to take place.
Sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide.
What system uses your 5 senses to send messages to the brain and back through your body to keep you safe?
Stimulus system
How is the circulatory system a system?
The circulatory system is a system because the heart, veins, and arteries work together to transport oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nutrients around the body to maintain the body's health.
Describe how an ecosystem is a system.
An ecosystem is a system, because it has many different living and non-living organisms that are working together to keep the flow of energy and habitat working.
How is a food web a system?
A food web is a system because it shows the producers, consumers, and decomposers working together to create a flow of energy.
How does a plant receive nutrients and get rid of its waste?
A plant uses photosynthesis to create nutrients. The sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide activate the chlorophyl to deliver nutrients to the plant. The plant that sends out oxygen as its waste.
How do the respiratory system, digestive system, and circulatory system work together to keep the body healthy?
The repiratory system brings in oxygen to the lungs that is distributed to the red blood cells to circualte around the body to give each cell the oxygen it needs. The circulatory system then delivers the waste (carbon dioxide to the respiratory system to expel the waste back through the lungs and trachea. The digestive system brings nutrients in to the body through eating. The digestive system breaks down the nutrients through the small intestine the nutrients are absorbed by red blood cells. These cells deliver the nutrients around the body to give the cells energy and keep the body healthy.
How is photosynthesis a system?
Photosynthesis is a system, because the cells take in sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide and turn it into energy, nutrients, and oxygen to maintain the plant's health.
