- B2b - Energy Flow
- Energy comes from the sun
- Animals can't take in this energy
- Organisms have 7 life processes (MRSNERG)
- Plants take in light energy from the sun
- They convert it to an energy that is stored as glucose
- Plants are producers
- Animals are consumers
- Herbivore eats plants
- Carnivores eat meat
- Omnivores eat meat and plants
- Carnivores eat meat
- Energy is passed between trophic levels
- Arrows show pass of energy
- Food webs exist because consumer belongs to more than 1 trophic level
- Arrows show pass of energy
- Pyramids show feeding relationships
- Pyramid of numbers = number of organisms in a food chain
- Pyramid of biomass always has a large bar at the bottom
- Resembles pyramid
- Biomass = dry mass of living matter
- Energy is wasted at each trophic level
- Respiration
- Egestion
- Efficiency = Energy used/ energy supplied x 100
- Energy comes from the sun
- Herbivore eats plants
- Carnivores eat meat
- Omnivores eat meat and plants
