Warm- up 3/17: What is a trophic level? How much energy is transferred between trophic levels? Where does the lost energy go? Biogeochemical Cycling In The Ecosystem pp

DEFINITIONS Ecosystem: an environment where the living (biotic) and non-living (abiotic) things affect one another Biogeochemical process: circulation of substances through living organisms and the environment

WATER CYCLE

Evaporation: water vapor enters the atmosphere Transpiration: evaporation of water through the leaves of plants Precipitation: water vapor that leaves the atmosphere

CARBON CYCLE

Photosynthesis: converting light energy into organic compounds Cellular respiration: breaking down organic compounds to release energy Combustion: burning of fossil fuels for energy releases CO 2 CO 2 from atmosphere to macromolecules Carbon from Macromolecules to CO 2 into atmosphere Carbon from old Macromolecules to CO 2 into atmosphere

NITROGEN CYCLE

nitrogen fixation: bacteria convert nitrogen gas to usable form (ammonia) ammonification: decomposers break down proteins/nucleic acids to NH 3 (ammonia) nitrification: bacteria convert NH 3 to nitrates/nitrites (i.e. like fertilizers) assimilation: plants take up nitrates/nitrites to make amino acids denitrification: bacteria return nitrogen to atmosphere

ENERGY TRANSFER Trophic Level: position in a series of energy transfers

FOOD CHAIN Single pathway that traces the transfer of energy

Large Carnivore 3˚ Consumer (tertiary) Killer Whale Small Carnivore 2˚Consumer (secondary) Ex: Sea Otter Herbivore 1˚ Consumer (primary) Ex: Sea Urchin Producer Ex: Kelp

FOOD WEB Interconnected food chains Arrows show transfer of ENERGY
