6.L.2 Understand the flow of energy through ecosystems and the response of the populations to the biotic and abiotic factors in their environment 6.L.2.3 SUMMARIZE how the abiotic factors (such as temperature, water, sunlight, and soil quality) of biomes affect the ability of organisms to grow, survive and/or create their own food through photosynthesis
(E) Investigate and explain the interactions in an ecosystem including food chains, food webs, and food pyramids.
Day 1
Construct a 3 door foldable
Instructions:
Materials:
1 sheet paper Scissors Pen Colored pencils/crayons Food web illustration Glue/tape
Hotdog fold a sheet of paper Hamburger fold the paper 2 times to evenly divide the paper into thirds Cut along the fold lines from the edge to the valley. Label the bottom of the flaps from left to right Food Chain, Food Web, and Food Pyramid Paste the picture of a food web provided onto the center flap
Day 2
Under the Food Chain flap, record the following: route for the transfer of matter and energy through an ecosystem arrows ALWAYS point to the organisms receiving the energy (food). Example:
Day 2 continued.
Under the Food Web flap, record the following:
shows all possible feeding relationships in a community at each trophic level. a network of interconnected food chains. The arrows ALWAYS point to the organisms receiving the energy (food). Under the Food Pyramid flap, record the following: Shows the relationship between food energy available at the trophic levels from bottom to top: producer, primary consumer, secondary consumer, tertiary consumer Less energy available at higher trophic level; most energy at producer level More pollutants at higher trophic levels
Question
In a typical forest community, plants are producers, rabbits are
primary consumers, and wolves are secondary consumers. Which diagram correctly represents these relationships?
Question
a. food choices of individual niches b. the amount of food energy at each trophic level c. oceanic zones of habitat d. the relative heights of the organisms
Question
Day 3
On the flap labeled Food Chain, draw a
food chain from the food web provided on the center flap. Be sure the arrows are pointing in the correct direction. On the flap labeled Food Pyramid, draw a food pyramid from the food web provided, placing the organisms at the correct trophic level
Day 3
For the food web provided,
name the: 3 producers 3 primary consumers 7 secondary consumers 5 tertiary consumers Note: Organisms may appear in more than one trophic level. Bonus: Which organism(s) is/are also a 4th level consumer?
Day 4
Construct a 3 door foldable
Instructions:
Materials:
Hotdog fold the handout along the fold line Cut the flap along the dotted lines Color the terms on the flaps, each a different color
Day 4 notes
Under the herbivore flap, record the following: Primary consumers only Consume plants (producers) Under the omnivore flap, record the following: 2nd level or higher consumers Consume both plants and animals Under the carnivore flap, record the following: 2nd level or higher consumers Consume animals
Day 5
For the food web provided,
name the: 3 herbivores 1 omnivore 10 carnivores Note: omnivores are also herbivores and carnivores Record the consumers under the appropriate flap of your foldable as examples of herbivores, omnivores, and/or carnivores
Question
According to this food
Day 6
Construct a 3 door foldable
Materials:
Instructions: Hotdog fold the handout along the fold line Cut the flap along the dotted lines Color the terms on the flaps, each a different color
Day 6 continued
Under the parasites flap, record the following: animals that live off other organism by harming it Under the scavengers flap, record the following: animals that eat dead animal carcasses Under the decomposers flap, record the following: mainly bacteria and fungi that break down and obtain energy from dead organic matter essential to the environment
recycle nutrients fix unusable nitrogen gas into a usable form which will be picked up by plants
Question
The picture shows a piece of
c. Wood regenerating
d. Genes transforming
