Food Chain and Food Webs

Vocabulary 1. Ecosystem – interactions between the biotic organisms and the abiotic materials and how materials and energy are transferred 2. Biotic –

The Marine Biome Marine Food Chains. Biodiversity The variety of living things in a particular area.

HOW DOES ENERGY FLOW THROUGH AN ECOSYSTEM?  An ecosystem consists of all the organisms living and in an area as well as the nonliving parts of that environment.

Living Things! Factors that affect living things are: Biotic factors – things that are alive or were alive (other organisms) Abiotic factors – things.

Energy Flow: Autotrophs

Pp Learning Goals By the end of this lesson, you should: Know the difference between a producer (autotroph) and a consumer (heterotroph) Know.

Energy in Ecosystems Note: Organisms interact in order to obtain energy and resources necessary to survive.

Food Chains and Food Webs. Food Chain  Events in which one organism eats another.

Food Chains, Webs, and Pyramids. Ecosystems are divided into different sections called trophic levels Each trophic level represents a transfer of energy.

Ecosystems An ecosystem consists of all the organisms living in an area and the nonliving features of their environment.

Autotrophs A groups of organisms that can use the energy in sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into Glucose (food) – They use the process.

Presentation transcript:

Do Now 1. Organisms from a particular ecosystem are shown below. Which organism(s) is (are) heterotrophic? _______________________________________. Which organism(s) help(s) recycle materials? _____________________________________. Which organism(s) obtain(s) all of the nutrients from an abiotic source? ________________. Which organism(s) must obtain its energy from organism 1? _________________________. snake, fungus, grasshopper, mouse fungus grass fungus Objective: Learn about Food Relationships in an Ecosystem Key Words: Food chain, Food Web

1. Among the organisms shown, which are autotrophs and which are heterotrophs? 2. Among the heterotrophs, which are herbivores and which are carnivores? 3. What kind of heterotrophs might enter this food chain when the mouse dies? Heterotrophs: snake, fungus, grasshopper, mouse Herbivores: grasshopper, mouse Fungus, bacteria Objective: Learn about Food Relationships in an Ecosystem Key Words: Food chain, Food Web Autotrophs: grass Carnivores: mouse, snake

5. Arrange the pictures in a sequence showing who eats whom Who eats whom; Draw arrows to show who eats whom Objective: Learn about Food Relationships in an Ecosystem Key Words: Food chain, Food Web Grass grasshoppermousesnakefungus

6. In summary, what is a Food Chain? It’s a sequence of organisms showing who eats whom. A diagram that represents the relationships between prey and predator. It’s the path in an ecosystem through which food passes Objective: Learn about Food Relationships in an Ecosystem Key Words: Food chain, Food Web

Objective: Learn about Food Relationships in an Ecosystem Key Words: Food chain, Food Web Using your card, made the longest food chain you can. Then, made the shortest food chain you can. Food Chain Project 1. Cut out some pictures and arrange them in two food chains: The longest food chain you can. (10 credits) The shortest food chain you can. (10 credits)

Objective: Learn about Food Relationships in an Ecosystem Key Words: Food chain, Food Web 2. Draw arrows to show how nutrients move on in your food chain. (10 credits) Food Chain Project

Producer Autotrophs Primary Consumer Herbivore Heterotrophs Secondary Consumer Carnivore Heterotrophs High Level Consumers Carnivore Heterotrophs Decomposer Heterotrophs Objective: Learn about Food Relationships in an Ecosystem Key Words: Food chain, Food Web 3. Label the role of all organisms in the food chains as: producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, high level consumers, autotrophs, heterotrophs, herbivores, carnivores, or decomposers. (30 credits/each) 4. The project is neat and well presented. (10 credits) Food Chain Project

? Autotrophs ? Herbivore Heterotrophs Secondary Consumer ? Heterotrophs High Level Consumers Carnivore ? Heterotrophs Objective: Learn about Food Relationships in an Ecosystem Key Words: Food chain, Food Web List 2 things you learned about Food Chains yesterday Label the roles of the organisms in the food chain below Do Now

Objective: Learn about Food Relationships in an Ecosystem Key Words: Food chain, Food Web Questions: 1.Are primary consumers, secondary consumers and high-level consumers always part of food chains? Explain. 2.Could a food chain begin with heterotrophs? Explain. 3.How do all food chains end? 4.Describe the patterns you observe in your food chain 5.In summary, what a food chain is? No, the smallest food chain contains only producers and decomposers No, because heterotrophs eat other living things, they do not make their own food Decomposers: bacteria and fungi It’s a sequence of organisms showing who eats whom. Food chains always starts with producers and ends with decomposers

6. In summary, what is a Food Chain? It’s a sequence of organisms showing who eats whom. A diagram that represents the relationships between prey and predator.
