Are mold and mushrooms the same type of organism? No, because they look different from each other. 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. 2 / 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 waste Food web Food cycle Food chain 3 / 15 It is a linear sequence of organisms through which nutrients and energy pass as one organism eats another. Food cycle Food Chain Food web Food waste 4 / 15 What are the PRODUCERS in this food web? Snake and Hawk Rabbit and Mouse Wildflowers and Grass Grass and Mouse 5 / 15 An organism that eats plants and animals carnivore vegetarian omnivore herbivore 6 / 15 They are usually herbivores and plant-eaters. producers secondary consumer tertiary consumer primary consumer 7 / 15 The organisms that eat the primary consumers are called _________? tertiary consumer producers secondary consumer primary consumer 8 / 15 Which of the following is used by plants to make their own food? Photosynthesis Cellular respiration Food chain Law of conservation of energy 9 / 15 They only eat plants. carnivores herbivores omnivores vegetarians 10 / 15 Organisms that break down dead organic material and wastes secondary consumer producers primary consumer decomposers 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 decrease, snakes will increase Frogs will decrease, snakes will decrease Frogs will increase, snakes will increase Frogs will increase, snakes will decrease 12 / 15 Maggots feed on dead and decaying organisms for energy. What are maggots? producers decomposers autotrophs heterotrophs 13 / 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. Energy is lost at each trophic level. Plants are not infinite in number. 14 / 15 How is energy transferred from one organism to another? When one organism eats another When consumers do photosynthesis When producers eat consumers When producers do photosynthesis 15 / 15 Producers Organisms that can make their own food, usually green plants. The living components of an ecosystem. The total number of animal and plant species in an ecosystem. The nonliving, physical factors that affect the living components in an ecosystem.
