When producers do photosynthesis When one organism eats another When consumers do photosynthesis When producers eat consumers 3 / 15 They only eat plants. omnivores carnivores herbivores vegetarians 4 / 15 The organisms that eat the primary consumers are called _________? secondary consumer primary consumer tertiary consumer producers 5 / 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 cycle Food chain Food web Food waste 6 / 15 Producers The nonliving, physical factors that affect the living components in an ecosystem. Organisms that can make their own food, usually green plants. The total number of animal and plant species in an ecosystem. The living components of an ecosystem. 7 / 15 They are usually herbivores and plant-eaters. producers secondary consumer primary consumer tertiary consumer 8 / 15 Organisms that break down dead organic material and wastes producers secondary consumer primary consumer decomposers 9 / 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 increase, snakes will decrease Frogs will decrease, snakes will increase Frogs will decrease, snakes will decrease 10 / 15 It is a linear sequence of organisms through which nutrients and energy pass as one organism eats another. Food Chain Food cycle Food web Food waste 11 / 15 Maggots feed on dead and decaying organisms for energy. What are maggots? producers decomposers heterotrophs autotrophs 12 / 15 What are the PRODUCERS in this food web? Rabbit and Mouse Grass and Mouse Wildflowers and Grass Snake and Hawk 13 / 15 Which of the following is used by plants to make their own food? Photosynthesis Law of conservation of energy Cellular respiration Food chain 14 / 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. Producers are limited by consumers. Carnivores are too large to be eaten. Plants are not infinite in number. 15 / 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 are different species. Yes, because they both get energy from the Sun. No, because they look different from each other. Your score is 0% Restart quiz Go to the Quizzes Page
