  1. Unit 7, Day 3

  2. Homework Quiz (6) • Open Note (stamp) • Autotrophs (all types) • Heterotrophs (all types) • Food Chains • Food Webs • Producers and Consumers (all trophic levels) • Energy, Biomass, and Numbers Pyramids

  3. Agenda (1) • Homework Quiz • Agenda • Homework Debrief • Learning Goal • String Activity • Activity Analysis • Pyramid Activity • Island Application (Research) • Homework

  4. Homework Debrief (6) • Autotrophs (all types) • Heterotrophs (all types) • Food Chains • Food Webs • Producers and Consumers (all trophic levels) • Energy, Biomass, and Numbers Pyramids

  5. Learning Goal (1) • Objective 2.5.F (Energy Models) – I can describe how energy flows through an ecosystem and I can model this with food chains, food webs, and ecological pyramids.

  6. String Activity (15) • If possible, find the person with the same word • Together, hypothesize if/who you consume AND if/who consumes you • There may be multiple answers! • Approach those other organisms. IFF they agree with your hypothesis, then place a string between you. • Try to keep string untangled • Please do not push through strings

  7. Activity Analysis (10) • Based on what we as a class determined, work with your table to draw a food web. • Determine what each organism is: primary producer, primary consumer, secondary consumer, tertiary consumer, detritivore, or decomposer • It’s okay for you to be incorrect! Take a risk. • Alligator Lizard, Bacteria, Cricket, Dead Animals, Dead Leaves, Earthworm, Fox, Fungus, Hawk, Maggots,Maple Tree Leaves, Millipede, Mushrooms, Pillbugs, Robin, Rotting Log, Sun

  8. Activity Debrief (3)

  9. Notes (4) • Detritivores CONSUME detritus • Detritus = dead plants/animals, feces • Millipedes, woodlice, dung flies, slugs, worms, sea stars, sea cucumbers, fiddler crabs • Decomposers CAN’T EAT. They ABSORB & BREAK DOWN cells. • Bacteria (dec. meat), fungi (dec. fruits/veggies)

  10. Pyramid Activity (4) • On panel 1: • Ecological Pyramids • Graphs of trophic structure • Trophic levels (feeding position) • Primary producer = autotroph • Primary consumer = herbivore • Secondary/Tertiary consumer = omnivore/carnivore

  11. Pyramid Activity (8) • Panel 2 • Pyramid of Energy • Flow of energy • Lose 90% of energy as heat • Only 10% of energy available for next trophic level • Base has 100% of energy available

  12. Pyramid Activity (8) • Panel 3 • Pyramid of Biomass • Biomass per area • Biomass = mass of each individual x number of individuals at each trophic level • g/m2

  13. Pyramid Activity (8) • Panel 4 • Pyramid of Numbers • # of individuals per area • Large # of producers at base • Lower # of carnivores at top • (Usually)

  14. Island Application (22 + 3 cleanup) • Must have primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers, and decomposers. • Must contain autotrophs, herbivores, omnivores, carnivores, and detritivores. • Create a food web that contains at least 3 organisms at each trophic level + decomposers + detritivores • Humans do not count!

  15. Homework (1 min) • Due Wed 4/17 or Thu 4/18 • YouTube Video: Biogeochemical Cycles • Homework Quiz: Biogeochemical Cycles • Homework quiz is open note • Suggestion: Draw each cycle!!!
