Food Chains, Food Webs, and Energy Pyramids

2

media

Energy begins with photosynthesis. ​

​

Where does energy begin?

3

media

Plants use water & carbon dioxide to store energy from the sun in glucose.

​

​Organisms that use photosynthesis to make food are called producers/autotrophs​

​

​Photosynthesis

​

You have to know the formula for photosynthesis.

4

Multiple Choice

What is another name for producers?

1

heterotrophs

2

autotrophs

5

Multiple Select

What is produced as a result of photosynthesis? (Pick 2)

1

CO2

2

O2

3

sugar

4

ATP (energy)

6

media

All organisms use cellular respiration to turn their food into energy. ​

​

Organisms that eat food to get energy are called consumers/heterotrophs​

​You have to know the formula for cellular respiration.

Cellular Respiration

What is another name for consumers?

1

heterotrophs

Second trophic level

​​

​Herbivores = only eat plants

Primary consumer

​​Secondary consumer

​Fourth trophic level

​

Carnivores or Omnivore

​

Predator or Scavenger​

Tertiary consumers

​Third tropic level​

​

Carnivores = only eat animals

Omnivores = eat plants and animals​

​

Predator or Scavenger​

10

Multiple Select

Which organism would be found at the second trophic level?

1

grass

2

lions

3

vultures

4

antelopes

11

Multiple Select

Which organisms could be found at the fourth trophic level?

1

grass

2

lions

3

vultures

4

antelopes

12

Multiple Select

Which organism would be found at the first trophic level?

1

grass

2

lions

3

vultures

4

antelopes

13

Open Ended

Why do you think scientists use food chains/ food webs?

14

media

Food chains show how energy is transferred from the sun to each trophic level (producer, primary consumer, etc.)

​

​Food Chains

​

15

Multiple Choice

What is the difference between food chains and food webs?

1

Food chains show a single energy pathways, while food webs show several energy pathways

2

Food web show multiple energy pathways, while food chains show only one energy pathway

16

media

Food webs show several energy pathways within an ecosystem.

​

​Food Webs

​

17

Poll

How much energy do you think is passed to the consumer when they eat food?

100%

90%

75%

10%

18

media

90% of energy is lost with each trophic level.

​

They show:

  • the amount of energy decreases for higher consumers

  • a large number of producers are needed to support an​ ecosystem.

​

​Energy Pyramids

​

19

media
media

Pyramid of
numbers
compares the
number of
organisms at
each trophic
level

Pyramid of
biomass
compares the
mass of
biological
organisms at
each trophic
level

Pyramid of
energy
compares
the amount
of energy
passing
through
each trophic
level

Ecological Pyramids
