Producers

To create its own food using photosynthesis.

To consume other organisms for energy.

To break down dead organic material.

To absorb energy from other producers.

Sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide.

Sugar, oxygen, and soil.

Water, oxygen, and sugar.

Sunlight, soil, and oxygen.

It will be unable to produce the sugar it needs for energy and growth.

It will start producing more oxygen to survive.

It will use water and carbon dioxide to grow faster.

It will adapt to the dark and no longer need sunlight.

It moves matter from the non-living environment into living plants.

It helps animals digest the food they eat.

It turns sugar back into carbon dioxide and water.

It creates sunlight for plants to use.

They use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugar.

They absorb sugar directly from the soil through their roots.

They break down animals to get the matter they need.

They convert oxygen from the air into water.

Matter would not be available for the animal to consume.

The animal would learn to use sunlight for energy.

The plant would provide more water to the animal.

The animal would start making its own sugar.

An organism that gets energy and matter by eating other organisms.

An organism that creates its own food from sunlight.

An organism that releases oxygen into the atmosphere.

An organism that uses carbon dioxide to make sugars.

It creates energy by combining oxygen and other organisms.

It releases stored energy from food by breaking down sugars with oxygen.

It gets rid of waste products created during photosynthesis.

It stores energy for later use by creating complex sugars.

Consumers would have to learn how to perform photosynthesis.

Consumers would not have the oxygen needed to release energy from their food.

Consumers would have too much sugar and not enough carbon dioxide.

Consumers would start releasing oxygen instead of using it.

Matter for growth and energy for life functions

Sunlight and water for photosynthesis

A habitat and protection from predators

Carbon dioxide and oxygen for breathing

It is created by the consumer when it moves.

It is transferred from the sun to a producer, which is then eaten.

It comes directly from the air and water in the ecosystem.

It is absorbed by the consumer's skin from the environment.

The snakes would start getting their energy directly from the sun.

The transfer of energy from the frogs to the snakes would be disrupted.

The grasshoppers would have less energy available to them.

The frogs would find a new source of energy to pass on.

To provide a quick boost of energy

To build and repair the body's cells and tissues

To help digest other nutrients

To provide a long-lasting source of energy

Carbohydrates are for building cells, while fats are for repairing them.

Carbohydrates offer quick or lasting energy, while fats provide slow, long-lasting energy.

Carbohydrates help digest proteins, while fats provide a quick energy boost.

Carbohydrates provide slow energy, while fats provide a quick energy boost.

They turn carbohydrates and fats directly into protein.

They are the main source of long-lasting fuel for the body.

They are needed to help the body's cells access the energy provided by the other nutrients.

They are only useful for repairing the body's tissues after an injury.

Providing the body with energy from calories.

Helping to transport nutrients and remove waste.

Acting as a stimulant to keep you awake.

Increasing the number of cells in your muscles.

Drinking too much water causes these symptoms.

Not drinking enough water can lead to these symptoms.

These symptoms are only caused by caffeinated drinks.

Water intake has no effect on these feelings.

The soda has too much sugar, which will cause a crash.

Caffeinated drinks are stimulants and do not provide the body with the water it needs.

The carbonation in the soda would make the headache worse.

Water is only useful for digesting food, not for rehydration.
