Food Chains & Food Webs
Producers make their own food by using energy from the sun, like plants.Consumers eat other organisms to get energy, all animals are consumers. 1. Herbivore is an animal that eats only plants. 2. Carnivore is an animal that eats only other animals. 3. Omnivore is an animal that eats both plants and animals.Decomposers are organisms that eat waste or dead organisms and make nitrogen compounds that can be used by plants.The arrows in a food chain show how energy moves from the food to the animal.Food webs contain many food chains that show many relationships between organisms.
Food chains and webs show how energy moves in an ecosystem. Food gives the energy to the organisms in an ecosystem.

Energy Pyramids
An energy pyramid is a diagram that shows the amounts of energy that flow through each level of a food chain.The most energy is at the bottom of the energy pyramid because some of the energy is used up before the organism gets eaten.Activities like running, breathing and thinking turned the food into the energy of body heat.Energy does not disappear, it just changes form.

Answer questions in your Science Journal.
1. Where is the greatest amount of energy in an Energy Pyramid? Why?
2. How do herbivores and carnivores get their energy?
3. What niche (role) do decomposers play in an ecosystem?
4. What do decomposers make when they break down remains of dead organisms?
