4. copyright cmassengale
Organisms that can store chemical energy in glucose during photosynthesis are called PRODUCERS.
copyright cmassengale

5. copyright cmassengale
Plants are producers (autotrophs) which use most of the energy they make for themselves.
copyright cmassengale

6. copyright cmassengale
Producers use cellular respiration to supply the energy they need to live.
copyright cmassengale

7. 6 O2 + C6H12O6 -->  6 H2O + 6 CO2 + energy (ATP)
CELLULAR RESPIRATION is the chemical reaction that releases the energy from the glucose organic compound.

8. copyright cmassengale
The energy that is not used by producers can be passed on to organisms that cannot make their own energy.
copyright cmassengale

9. copyright cmassengale
Organisms that cannot make their own energy are called CONSUMERS or heterotrophs.
copyright cmassengale

10. Consumers that eat producers to get energy:
Are first order (1st) or primary consumers
Are herbivores (plant-eaters)
copyright cmassengale

11. copyright cmassengale
Most of the energy the primary consumer gets from the producer is used by the consumer, about 90%.
copyright cmassengale

12. Some of the energy moves into the atmosphere as heat.
copyright cmassengale

13. copyright cmassengale
Some energy in the primary consumer is STORED & not lost to the atmosphere or used by the consumer itself. This energy, about 10%, is available for another consumer (predator).
copyright cmassengale

14. A consumer that eats another consumer for energy:
Is called a secondary consumer or 2nd order consumer
May be a carnivore or a omnivore
May be a predator
May be a scavenger
copyright cmassengale

15. copyright cmassengale
Most of the energy the secondary consumer gets from the primary consumer is used by the secondary consumer.
copyright cmassengale

16. copyright cmassengale
Some of the energy is lost as heat, but some energy is stored and can be passed on to another consumer.
copyright cmassengale

17. A consumer that eats a consumer that already ate a consumer:
Is called a 3rd order or tertiary consumer
May be a carnivore or a omnivore
May be a predator
May be a scavenger
copyright cmassengale

18. Consumers that eat producers & other consumers
are omnivores
Omnivores eat plants and animals
copyright cmassengale

19. copyright cmassengale
Consumers that hunt & kill other consumers are called predators. The animals that are hunted & killed are called prey.
copyright cmassengale

20. Consumers that eat other dead consumers are called scavengers
copyright cmassengale

21. copyright cmassengale
The transfer of energy from the sun to producer to primary consumer then to higher order consumers can be shown in a FOOD CHAIN.
copyright cmassengale

22. copyright cmassengale
More Food Chains
The arrows show the direction of energy flow.
copyright cmassengale

23. Food Chains Show Available Energy
copyright cmassengale

24. copyright cmassengale
Another way of showing the transfer of energy in an ecosystem is with an ENERGY PYRAMID
copyright cmassengale

25. copyright cmassengale
Energy Pyramids Show
Amount of available energy decreases for higher consumers
Amount of available energy decreases down the food chain
It takes a large number of producers to support a small number of primary consumers
It takes a large number of primary consumers to support a small number of secondary consumers

26. copyright cmassengale

27. copyright cmassengale
Food Webs:
Are interconnected food chains
They show the feeding relationships in an ecosystem
copyright cmassengale

28. How Many Chains are in this web?
