POWER FOR LIFE’S PROCESSES Energy Flow. Producers Sunlight is the primary source of energy source for life on earth. Plants, algae, and some bacteria.
Energy flow in Ecosystems
Principles of Ecology.
Energy Transfer in Ecosystems. Producers… Are autotrophs that convert energy entering the ecosystem so other organisms can use it –Ex. Plants, protists,
Energy transfer. Energy sources The sun provides almost all the energy to sustain life. Producers use Photosynthesis or Chemosythesis acquire the energy.

10-2 NOTES: ENERGY TRANSFER PP In an ecosystem energy flows: Sun  autotrophs  heterotrophs producers consumers.
How do organisms get energy?. Getting Energy Food chain – a sequence of connected producers and consumers Producer – an organism that makes its own food.
Producers/Autotrophs Manufacture their own food; they don’t eat. Most producers use photosynthesis (energy from the sun) Autotrophic bacteria use chemosynthesis.
Ecosystems. Ecosystem = all the organisms that live in a particular place, AND their nonliving and living environment Ecosystems are made and shaped by.
Energy in Ecosystems Note: Organisms interact in order to obtain energy and resources necessary to survive.
Food Chains/Food Webs. How Organisms Interact Autotrophs – Organisms that use energy from the sun or energy stored in chemical compounds. These types.
Food Chains, Webs, and Pyramids. Ecosystems are divided into different sections called trophic levels Each trophic level represents a transfer of energy.

Presentation transcript:

Ch. 22.1 Energy in Ecosystems pp.415-419 Producers = autotrophs; they produce their own food Auto= self, troph=feeding 1st energy level Photosynthesis = making food using light energy Plants, most common Energy from the sun chemosythesis = making food using chemical energy Bacteria, rare

Ch. 22.1 Energy in Ecosystems pp.415-419 Biomass = the amount (mass) of biological material in an ecosystem Everything that is eaten for energy is or was living E is measured in units of Calories Net primary production = the amount of E that can move on to the second trophic level Net = what is left over E = Energy

Ch. 22.1 Energy in Ecosystems pp.415-419 Consumers = eaters, they consume other organisms for E Herbivores= eat producers Carnivores= eat consumers Omnivores= eat both Detritivores= eat dead things (clean things up) Vultures, maggots Decomposers = break down dead things Fungi turning a stump to soil

Ch. 22.1 Energy in Ecosystems pp.415-419 E flows through the ecosystem: Average of 10% transfer from one trophic level to the next Almost always less biomass up the food chain Calculate by dividing biomass by the previous level biomass 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑦 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑠𝑢𝑚𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑦 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑑𝑢𝑐𝑒𝑟𝑠 = 1000 𝐶 10000 𝐶 = 0.1 = 10%

Ch. 22.1 Energy in Ecosystems pp.415-419 Food chain = single E path Linear grass> rabbit> coyote Usually all E starts from Sun Food web = interactions of all food chains in an ecosystem

Ch. 22.1 Energy in Ecosystems pp.415-419 If you take out any one level of the trophic chain it can have affects on all the other levels: …and even the abiotic ecosystem. Wolf reintroduction in Yellowstone National Park http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysa5OBhXz-Q
