POD # 19
Where did your dinner come from?
1.
2.
Across the top of a sheet of paper, list the
different types of foods you ate for dinner
last night.
Under each item, write the name of the plant,
animal, or other organism that was the
source of that food. Some foods have more
than one source.

Producers
Consumers
Decomposers
Ecosystems and Biomes
2. Producers?
Autotrophs
3. Consumers and
decomposers
Heterotrophs

and animals

bodies of dead organisms
POD # 20 Food Web and Food Chain
1.

3.
What is the difference between a food web
and a food chain?
What are the 3 energy roles organisms have
in an ecosystem?
Create a food chain that goes to a second
level consumer.
Ecosystems and Biomes
5. Food chain?
 Movement of energy
through an ecosystem
 Begins with producers
 Food chain is specific

6. Diagram pgs 712-713
7. Food web:
 Movement of energy
through an ecosystem
 Many overlapping food
chains

Ecosystems and Biomes
8. Energy Pyramid?
It shows how energy
decreases at higher
levels of a food web
Ecosystems and Biomes
9. Eating the Sun?
 Producers (autotrophs)
convert the sun’s energy
 You either eat the
producers
 Or you eat the animals that
eat the producers
Home Work

Complete the Energy- Role walk activity on
page 715. List 20 producers, consumers, and
decomposers that you see. Create a list of
the organisms and their energy roles. For
each consumer, try to classify it further
according to what it eats and its level. Then
draw a energy pyramid for at least one food
chain. This is a QUIZ grade!!!
POD #21 Water Cycle
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
What are the three forms of water?
What does evaporation mean, give an
example?
What is the difference in condensation and
Precipitation?
What is groundwater?
The suffix –ion means action or process,
explain why that would be important with
the water cycle. (look at key words)
10. The Water Cycle?


Evaporation: water
changes to water vapor
(gas)
Condensation: water
vapor rises, cools, and
turns back to liquid
10. The Water Cycle?
Precipitation:
The water vapor droplets
grow larger and larger
until they fall back to
Earth


Water molecule story…
Glacier, stream, ocean, cloud, stream, animal,
cloud, glacier, ocean
 “I was a lonely water molecule frozen in a
glacier on top of a mountain. When the spring
came and the ice thawed, I melted into a
stream. Down the mountain, the stream
roared going over large boulders. After the
long journey I reached the ocean.”

another organism and then soaking it into their bodies?
a. producers
b. consumers c. decomposers d. herbivores
3.What organisms are able to produce their food?
a. producers
b. consumers c. decomposers d. herbivores

a. producers b. consumers c. decomposers d. herbivores
5.What organisms eat both plants and other animals?
a. producers
b. carnivores c. omnivores d. herbivores
6.Where is the largest amount of energy found on an energy pyramid?
a. top b. middle
c. bottom
d. each level is the same
Ecosystems and Biomes
11. Forest fires?
 During fires, lots of CO2 are
released into the air
 Fire leaves fewer trees to
absorb the CO2
 Too much CO2 warms the
atmosphere
Ecosystems and Biomes
12. How humans affect
cycles.
 Burning fuel and clearing
forested land raises CO2
 Lowers oxygen levels in
the air
Ecosystems and Biomes
13. How does nitrogen get
returned?
 Bacteria release nitrogen
into the air
 Decomposers break down
wastes and remains
returning them to the soil
Ecosystems and Biomes
14. Nitrogen-fixing bacteria?
Live in nodules on the roots of
plants
15. Biogeography?
The study of where organisms
live
Ecosystems and Biomes
16. Continental Drift?
 Millions of years ago, the
continents drifted apart
 The continents drifted
based on tectonic plates


25. Savannas vs. Prairies?
Savanna:
A grassland that receives more rain
than prairies with scattered
shrubs and small trees
Ecosystems and Biomes
