Food waste Food web Food cycle Food chain 11 / 15 An organism that eats plants and animals omnivore carnivore vegetarian herbivore 12 / 15 Mushrooms get energy from breaking down dead organisms. Are mold and mushrooms the same type of organism? No, because they look different from each other. No, because they are different species. Yes, because they both get energy from breaking down dead organisms. Yes, because they both get energy from the Sun. 13 / 15 It is a linear sequence of organisms through which nutrients and energy pass as one organism eats another. Food web Food cycle Food Chain Food waste 14 / 15 Maggots feed on dead and decaying organisms for energy. What are maggots? heterotrophs decomposers producers autotrophs 15 / 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? Carnivores are too large to be eaten. Producers are limited by consumers. Plants are not infinite in number. Energy is lost at each trophic level. Your score is 0% Restart quiz Go to the Quizzes Page
