Animals that adapt...

What is the role of a producer?

Keep other species from overpopulating

What's the role of consumers in a food chain?

Eat other species and keep them from overpopulating

What is the role of decomposers in a food chain?

Break down dead organisms and add nutrients to the soil

Eat other organisms to gain energy

Make the food for the whole food chain

What does a food web represent?

All connections of energy flow throughout all organisms in a ecosystem.

The specific ways that mutualism is carried out.

A single pathway or energy flow between organisms.

What can you infer from the fact that the disappearance of just one species can disrupt an entire food chain?

Food chains are extremely fragile

Every food chain depends entirely on a single species

Food chains can regenerate on their own

Food chains would not exist without humans

How is a food web different from a food chain?

Food webs contain many different, linked food chains.

Food webs contain only producers, not consumers.

Food webs do not include decomposers.

Food webs exist in aquatic environments; food chains exist in terrestrial environments.

How might a lack of sunlight disrupt the food web?

It would prevent producers from producing nutrients.

It would cause consumers to consume less.

It would prevent decomposers from decomposing matter

It would not disrupt the food web at all.

How are primary consumers different from secondary consumers?

Primary consumers eat only plants; secondary consumers eat other consumers.

Primary consumers eat other consumers; secondary consumers eat only plants.

one species benefit, the other is harmed

the variety of species within an ecosystem

a large number of the same species in an ecosystem

an abundant amount of the same primary consumers
