Energy Paths

Learning Objectives Trace the flow of energy through living systems Compare and contrast food web and food chain

Tertiary consumer Secondary consumer Primary consumer Producer

Three ways to illustrate energy flow: Energy Paths Three ways to illustrate energy flow: Food Chain Food Web Food (Energy) Pyramid

Food Chain A food chain shows the path of energy from one organism to the next. Arrow points in the direction that the energy is flowing

Food Web A food web shows all feeding relationships in an ecosystem (network of many food chains)

Food (Energy) Pyramid A level of the food pyramid is called a trophic level Food chains/webs can be shown as a food pyramid. Producers at bottom, consumers at upper levels

Trophic Levels Energy is lost with each trophic level ~ 90% is released to the environment as heat ~ 10% of the energy is used by organisms

Biomass - all of the biological material in an ecosystem
