Where does the energy come from?
![Page 4: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Organisms and Energy
All the energy on Earth comes from the sun!!
![Page 5: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Producers Organisms that use
the energy from the sun to produce their own food.
Ex: Plants, algae and some bacteria.
![Page 6: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Photosynthesis
![Page 7: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Consumers Organisms that obtains energy by feeding
on other organisms. 3-Types
1. Herbivores
2. Carnivores
3. Scavengers and decomposers
![Page 8: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Herbivores Heterotrophs that
consume plants only.
Ex: cows, deer, rabbits…
(First order consumers)
![Page 9: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Carnivores Heterotrophs that
consume other animals.
Ex: Humans, cats…
(Second… order consumers.)

Scavengers Feed on dead
organisms.
Ex: vultures
![Page 11: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Decomposers Break down wastes
and dead organisms and return the raw materials to the ecosystem.
Ex: Bacteria and fungus
![Page 12: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Are the decomposer nature´s recyclers?
While obtain energy for their own needs, decomposer return simple molecules to the environment. These molecules can be used again by other organisms.

How does energy flow through the ecosystem???
In ONE direction only
The movement of the energy through the ecosystem can be show in diagram called
food chain

Food chain and Food web The energy enter as sunlight and converted
to food molecules by producer. After this energy is transfer to each
organism that eat a producer And to another organism that feed on these
consumers.
![Page 16: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Food Chain DEFINITION: It´s a
series of events in which one organism eats another to get energy
The figure represent a simplest exchange of energy.

Food Web: Many interconnected and overlapping food chains
![Page 21: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Ecological Pyramids
Shows how energy flows through the ecosystem
![Page 23: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Energy Pyramid Shows the amount of
energy that moves from one feeding level to another in a food web
Only 10% of the energy is passed onto the next level.
![Page 24: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Energy Pyramid
The most energy is available at the producer level of the pyramid
As you move up the pyramid, each level has less energy available than the level below.

Cycles of the matter What is a cycle?
Is a series of things that repeat over and over again
What are some example of cycles?
Water cycle Oxygen cycle Carbon dioxide

through the ecosystem, never disappearing.

Water Cycle 3 parts…
1. Evaporation
2. Condensation
3. Precipitation
![Page 28: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Evaporation The process by which molecules of liquid
water absorb energy and change to a gas
From oceans, lakes, river. From living things: Leaves of trees, liquid
wastes and when you exhale.
![Page 29: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Condensation This process by which a gas changes to a
liquid. When the gas rises the atmosphere , it cool
down and a little drop are formed. The water droplets collect around particles
of dust , eventually forming clouds.
![Page 30: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Precipitation To more water condenses the drop grow
larger and heavy then fall back to earth as precipitation.
Over ocean and lake When fall in land may soak and become
groundwater.

Carbon cycle
![Page 35: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Oxygen Cycle
![Page 36: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Oxygen and carbon cycle
These two elements are essential to the life on the earth
In ecosystems the process of carbon and oxygen cycles are linkedProducers, consumers, and decomposers play important roles in recycling carbon and oxygen.
![Page 37: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Carbon cycle The cycle can start when producers take in
carbon dioxide gas from the air and release oxygen during photosynthesis.
They take the carbon and make food molecules such as sugar and starches to get energy
![Page 38: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Carbon cycle When consumers eat producers, they take
in the carbon-containing food molecules to obtain energy.
The consumer break down the carbon compounds in a process called respiration in this time they release
Then carbon dioxide is cycled back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide
![Page 39: Energy flow in ecosystems](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555d061ad8b42a08668b5882/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Oxygen cycle
The oxygen is found through the ecosystems Producers release oxygen in the
photosynthesis process. The organisms take the oxygen from air or
water and use it to carry out their life process.

Human Impact (Released CO2)
Industrial pollutions, when people burn oil or fuels.
Clear forests and burn Less trees – less absortion f CO2 from the
environment.
