Primary consumers eat

• consumers

• producers

• carnivores

• decomposers

• predator diagram

• food web

As you move from the bottom of the energy pyramid to the the top, or the apex, the amount of energy

• increases

• decreases

• remains the same

In this energy pyramid, which organisms have the most energy available?

• Producers
• Carnivores
• Herbivores
• Top Predator

The mouse in this food web would be considered a:

• Decomposer
• Producer
• Secondary Consumer
• Primary Consumer

This diagram shows a linear relationship of energy flow within an ecosystem and is commonly known as a(n)...

• Food Web

• Food Chain

• Abiotic Factors

• Food Pyramid

When the rabbit consumes the grass, most of the energy it gets will be used for what?

• Transfer energy to the next trophic level.

• To grow, move and reproduce.

• Break down dead material.

How much energy gets transferred to the next trophic level in an energy pyramid?

• 1%

In recent years humans have interfered with the natural balance within deer populations in various ecosystems. The interference includes eliminating predators of the deer. Which of the following statements correctly describes the long-term outcome of this interference?

• Other browsing species will thrive and out compete the deer

• The producers will evolve into species that are less palatable to the deer

• The deer that are the fastest and most agile will survive and reproduce.

• The deer population will be too large to be supported by producers
