Food Webs
This organism makes its own food using sunlight and starts the flow of energy in a food web.
Producer
This plant structure captures sunlight so the plant can make food through photosynthesis.
Leaves
This process happens when water vapor cools and forms clouds made of tiny liquid water droplets.
Condensation
Which situation describes weather conditions happening at a certain time?
It is sunny outside today, and the temperature is 26°C.
A region usually has cold winters each year.
An area receives about the same amount of rain over 50 years.
A region’s snowfall averages stay similar over several decades.
It is sunny outside today, and the temperature is 26°C.
Red flowers and heart-shaped leaves are examples of these kinds of traits.
Inherited or Acquired
Inherited traits
This organism gets energy form eating other organisms.
Consumers
This process allows plants to use sunlight to make their own food.
Photosynthesis
This process causes sediment to build up at the mouth of a river.
Deposition
This type of energy resource can be replaced naturally.
Renewable resource
A turtle with a scar on its shell and a lizard missing part of its tail are examples of these traits.
Inherited or Acquired
Acquired Traits
A food web shows how energy moves between organisms in an ecosystem.
Which food chain correctly shows one possible path of energy flow in the food web?
owl → mole → grasshopper → grass → Sun
grass → frog→ grasshopper→ hawk
grass → bunny→ alligator→ hawk
Sun→ grass→ grasshopper→frog
Sun→ grass→ grasshopper→frog
These grow deep underground to help plants reach water below the surface.
Roots
This Moon phase comes after a Full Moon in the Moon phase cycle.
Draw or say the name of the moon phase.
Waning Gibbous Moon
One disadvantage of nonrenewable resources is?
They are used faster than nature can replace them, etc.
This desert plant adaptation helps prevent animals from eating the plant and can reduce water loss.
Thorns
What is the correct order of energy being moved in a food web?
Producers → Prey→ Predator
This plants structure helps with attracting pollinators to a plant.
Flower
This process causes water to move from Earth’s surface into the atmosphere as water vapor.
Evaporation
This is an advantage of using wind energy.
Wind energy is a renewable resource.
A turtle with a cracked shell and a lizard missing part of its tail are examples of this kind of trait.
Inherited or Acquired
Acquired Traits
Earthworms help cycle matter in an ecosystem by doing this job.
Breaking down dead matter and returning nutrients to the soil?
This plant structure helps reduce water loss by covering the outside of leaves.
HINT: Type of leaf
Waxy Leaves
The Moon appears to change shape during the month because of this.
The Moon orbiting Earth and reflecting sunlight
How is water energy stored in rocks?
Answer Varies.
A bird’s feather color and a rabbit’s fur color are examples of this kind of trait.
