Food chain Food cycle Food web Food waste 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? Carnivores are too large to be eaten. Energy is lost at each trophic level. Producers are limited by consumers. Plants are not infinite in number. 5 / 15 How is energy transferred from one organism to another? When producers do photosynthesis When one organism eats another When producers eat consumers When consumers do photosynthesis 6 / 15 What are the PRODUCERS in this food web? Wildflowers and Grass Grass and Mouse Snake and Hawk Rabbit and Mouse 7 / 15 Organisms that break down dead organic material and wastes secondary consumer decomposers producers primary consumer 8 / 15 Which of the following is used by plants to make their own food?

The total number of animal and plant species in an ecosystem. The living components of an ecosystem. Organisms that can make their own food, usually green plants. 11 / 15 It is a linear sequence of organisms through which nutrients and energy pass as one organism eats another. Food web Food waste Food cycle Food Chain 12 / 15 They only eat plants. herbivores vegetarians omnivores carnivores 13 / 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 increase, snakes will decrease Frogs will decrease, snakes will increase 14 / 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 the Sun. 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. 15 / 15 Maggots feed on dead and decaying organisms for energy. What are maggots? autotrophs decomposers producers heterotrophs Your score is 0% Restart quiz Go to the Quizzes Page
