ECOSYSTEMS Ecosystem video I understand the relationships that occur in ecosystems 0 1 2 3 4 5
2
ECOSYSTEM Be ready to sort Marsh animals into biotic and abiotic categories What is a niche?
4
Plants(producers)have the ability to turn light energy into chemical energy(photosynthesis) They are the foundation of every energy cycle! Without them ecosystems do not exist. Producers
5
Consumers can not do photosynthesis so they must eat other plants and animals to get chemical energy. Consumers:
6
1.Herbivores: Plant eaters (deer, rabbit, and ducks) 2.Carnivores: Meat eaters (fox, coyotes, and owls) 3.Omnivores: Plant and meat eaters (raccoon, Opossum, skunks, and painted turtles ) Consumers:
8
1. Biotic to Biotic...predator/prey, racoon/ducks… 2. Biotic to Abiotic...Humans drinking water or breathing oxygen 3. Aboitic to Aboitic...weathering,erosion,deposition 3 types of relationships
9
Animals and plants who need each other in order to survive and reproduce… Watch video # 2 Define and give at least 3 examples of diferrent types of interdependence Interdependence
15
How can red tail hawks and great horned owls affect an ecosystem? Interspecies competition
16
Why would an apple tree farmers place beehives in the middle of his apple orchard? ????????????????????
17
.Label as biotic or abiotic 1.Water 2.A owl 3.A mushroom 4.Oxygen 5.Bacteria 2. Explain the concept of interdependence between bees and apple trees. 3. From the notes… define: a. niche b. symbiosis c. Mutualism d. interdependence e. Parasitism 4. How does the alligator and the bird that cleans its teeth show mutualism? 5. How does a dog and a flea show parasitism? 6.What are the 3 types relationships that occur in an ecosystem? (between biotic/abiotic) 7. In a Venn Diagram compare producers to consumers
18
ENERGY IS NEITHER CREATED OR DESTROYED...IT SIMPLY CHANGES FORM Go with the flow! I understand how energy flows through an ecosystem 0 1 2 3 4 5
19
1.What does the law of Thermodynamics state. How do producers cause this process on our planet? How do consumers carry on this process? 2.What happens as energy moves up the energy pyramid? Where does it go? 3.What are the various categories of consumers? Give local examples of each. 4.What is the niche of the decomposer group? Why are they important? 5. Create an energy pyramid? (Your best one!) Study Guide:
