Total questions: 15
Worksheet time: 8mins
What is the main cause of biodiversity loss?
human population growth
pollution
technology
forest fires
What shows the flow or transfer of energy from producers to consumers?
Food Chain
Energy Pyramid
Animal Chart
Energy Graph
A plant is a type of:
producer
herbivore
consumer
carnivore
The consumer that gets energy from a producer is called a:
secondary consumer
primary consumer
apex predator
plant
Where do producers (plants, trees, etc.) get their energy?
by eating other consumers
from the sun through photosynthesis
through the soil and water
from decomposers
In an energy pyramid, where is the MOST energy found?
at the bottom with producers
at the top with apex predators
in the tertiary consumer section
the energy is even throughout
How do consumers get energy?
By eating other organisms
By being in the sunlight for photosynthesis
By watching other consumers in their ecosystem
By eating abiotic factors
Rocks, temperature, sunlight, air, and water are all:
Abiotic
Biotic
Dogs, trees, plants, cats, and fish are all:
Abiotic
Biotic
A caterpillar that eats leaves of a plant are:
Herbivores
Producers
Carnivores
Decomposers
A lion that eats other animals for energy is a:
carnivore
herbivore
producer
decomposer
Why are decomposers an important part of an ecosystem?
They get energy from sunlight and share it with all other organisms.
They make resources available to producers by breaking down waste materials/ dead organisms
They change producers into a different type of plant form that consumers can digest better.
They are not an important part and the ecosystem can survive without them
What does biodiversity indicate about an ecosystem?
the types of animals that have been instinct there
which animals are carnivores or herbivores
the location of an ecosystem
the ability for an ecosystem to survive change
A symbiotic relationship where BOTH animals are helped or benefit is called:
commensalism
mutualism
parasitism
A symbiotic relationship where one animal is helped and the other is not helped or harmed is:
commensalism
mutualism
parasitism
