Are mold and mushrooms the same type of organism? Yes, because they both get energy from breaking down dead organisms. Yes, because they both get energy from the Sun. No, because they look different from each other. No, because they are different species. 2 / 15 Which of the following is used by plants to make their own food? Food chain Law of conservation of energy Cellular respiration Photosynthesis 3 / 15 Maggots feed on dead and decaying organisms for energy.

The total number of animal and plant species in an ecosystem. The living components of an ecosystem. The nonliving, physical factors that affect the living components in an ecosystem. 6 / 15 How is energy transferred from one organism to another? When consumers do photosynthesis When producers do photosynthesis When producers eat consumers When one organism eats another 7 / 15 What are the PRODUCERS in this food web? Snake and Hawk Grass and Mouse Wildflowers and Grass Rabbit and Mouse 8 / 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? Plants are not infinite in number. Producers are limited by consumers. Carnivores are too large to be eaten. Energy is lost at each trophic level. 9 / 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 waste Food web Food cycle 10 / 15 In an ecosystem, snakes feed on frogs, which feed on mosquitoes. Use of a bug spray has decreased the number of mosquitoes.
