Rabbit and Mouse Snake and Hawk Wildflowers and Grass Grass and Mouse 3 / 15 Organisms that break down dead organic material and wastes secondary consumer decomposers primary consumer producers 4 / 15 Food chains show energy transfer between organisms. The size of a food chain can vary, yet there is a limit to the number of levels that a food chain can reach. Why is there a limit to the number of levels that a food chain can reach? Energy is lost at each trophic level. Plants are not infinite in number. Carnivores are too large to be eaten. Producers are limited by consumers. 5 / 15 How is energy transferred from one organism to another? When consumers do photosynthesis When producers eat consumers When one organism eats another When producers do photosynthesis 6 / 15 Producers The nonliving, physical factors that affect the living components in an ecosystem. The living components of an ecosystem. The total number of animal and plant species in an ecosystem. Organisms that can make their own food, usually green plants. 7 / 15 Maggots feed on dead and decaying organisms for energy. What are maggots? heterotrophs decomposers producers autotrophs 8 / 15 They only eat plants. carnivores omnivores vegetarians herbivores 9 / 15 Mushrooms get energy from breaking down dead organisms. Are mold and mushrooms the same type of organism? Yes, because they both get energy from breaking down dead organisms. No, because they look different from each other. Yes, because they both get energy from the Sun. No, because they are different species. 10 / 15 They are usually herbivores and plant-eaters. secondary consumer tertiary consumer producers primary consumer 11 / 15 In an ecosystem, snakes feed on frogs, which feed on mosquitoes. Use of a bug spray has decreased the number of mosquitoes. What will probably happen to the number of frogs and snakes? Frogs will increase, snakes will increase Frogs will decrease, snakes will decrease Frogs will decrease, snakes will increase Frogs will increase, snakes will decrease 12 / 15 It is a detailed description of the species within a community and their relationships with each other; it shows how energy is transferred up food chains that are interlinked with other food chains. Food chain Food cycle Food web Food waste 13 / 15 It is a linear sequence of organisms through which nutrients and energy pass as one organism eats another. Food web Food Chain Food cycle Food waste 14 / 15 Which of the following is used by plants to make their own food? Law of conservation of energy Cellular respiration Food chain Photosynthesis 15 / 15 The organisms that eat the primary consumers are called _________? secondary consumer tertiary consumer producers primary consumer Your score is 0% Restart quiz Go to the Quizzes Page
