How do Producers get food? |
They do photosynthesis to make own food |
|
What are the raw materials of photosynthesis? |
Carbon dioxide, water, sunlight |
|
What are the products of photosynthesis? |
Sugar and oxygen |
|
What is the waste product of photosynthesis? |
Oxygen, it exits through the stomata |
|
How do the raw materials of photosynthesus enter the plant? |
CO2 enters the stomata; water is asorbed by filaments and drawn up to leaves by xylem cells. Veins in stem and leaf move water to the cholorplasts |
|
What drives the chemical reaction to occur? |
Sunlight |
|
Herbivore |
A consumer that eats plants only like a deer or rabbit |
|
Omnivore |
A consumer that only eats plants and animals like a bear or a human |
|
Carnivore |
A consumer that only eats meat like a wolf or a shark |
|
Scavenger |
A consumer that eats dead organisms like a vulture or a buzzard |
|
Decomposers |
A consumer that feeds off of waste/dead organisms and returns nutrients to soil/water like worms, bacteria, fungi |
|
Whcih level has most of the energy in an energy pyramid? |
Producer/bottom, because the plants asorb sunlight with the cholorophyll in cholorplasts |
|
Which level has the least amount of energy availble on the energy pyramid? |
Top |
|
How much energy is transferred to each feeding level? |
Only 10% |
|
When energy is lost while being transferred where does it go? |
90% of the energy is lost as heat, movement, reproduction, growth/development |
