Eating
I make my own food using carbon dioxide, sunlight and water...
hint: Plant is the wrong answer
What is a producer
Plants use this as energy to make their own food
What is Sunlight
this organism starts off every ecosystem
What is a plant
The explanation of what makes up existence.
What is "everything is made of matter. Matter is made of molecules."
This particular decomposer feeds on all dead matter on the sim
What is a mushroom
This was food for the sloths in the rainforest
What are Cecropia trees
I study the world of living organisms. Seeing parts interact in many ecosystems. Who am I?
Who are ecologists?
I eat mostly meat (other animals) and nothing else
What is a carnivore
Plants take in water through this part
What are roots
provides Energy in every ecosystem
What is the sun
How everything moves and grows.
Animals, plants, and decomposers use some food molecules to release energy for movement and growth.
The mushroom puts this into the soil for plants
What are nutrients
This plant has nutrients, water and carbon dioxide but does not have Sunlight
What is dead
Fish swim, plants grow, no soil around above or below. What am I?
What is aquaponics
I get food matter I need from dead matter
What is a decomposer?
Plants take in this through the small holes in their leaves
What is Carbon Dioxide
This shows only 1 thing that every organism eats. It shows only 1 line of energy flow in an ecosystem.
What is a food chain
How things grow.
Animals, plants, and decomposers grow by changing food molecules into body molecules that can build their bodies.
If the rabbits becomes unhealthy or dies this organism population decreases
what are the wolves/ coyotes
This plant has water, sunlight and carbon dioxide but does not have nutrients
What is Unhealthy Plant - possibly a dying plant
Everything is made of me, as far as the eye can see. Molecules and atoms long or shorten, they are all me because they're important.
What is matter?
I eat other organisms to get food molecules I need
What is a consumer
Plants release this out into the air for all organisms including humans
What is Oxygen
This shows that organisms eat multiple things or multiple lines of energy flow in an ecosystem.
What is a food web
How the ground is involved in recycling.
Decomposers release nutrients from dead plants and animals into the soil.
This happens when organisms are growing
What are stacking cubes
The biggest difference between the project area soil and the healthy rainforest soil
What are decomposers
Plants, animals, or decomposers are me. The generic name for all living things that you see. What are we?
What are organisms?
The changing of food molecules into body molecules that can build their bodies. (Key concepts)
How do animals, plants, and decomposers grow?
Some food molecules are used to release energy for...(Key Concept)
How do animals, plants, and decomposers move and grow?
This is an organism that enters an ecosystem that it not native to it causing harm. Usually brought in by humans
What are Invasive species
2 answers - need both.
Food making
Plants use water molecules, carbon dioxide molecules from the air, and energy from the sun to make food.
Plants need nutrients to help make food molecules for energy and body matter.
Ingredients: Water, CO2, Sun light, and Nutrients = plant food.
This happens when organisms gain energy
What is blink yellow light
Plants grown in a system that provides nutrients in a water-based environment but does not use any soil.
What is hydroponics
What is a detritivore?
