Organisms that can make glucose during photosynthesis are called
PRODUCERS.

Producers
use cellular respiration
to supply the energy they need to live.
![Page 7: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
CELLULAR RESPIRATION is the chemical reaction
that releases the energy in glucose.
6O2 + C6H12O6 --> 6H2O + 6CO2 + energy
![Page 8: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The energy that is not used by producers can be passed on to
organisms that cannot make their own energy.
![Page 9: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Organisms that cannot make their own energy are called
CONSUMERS.
![Page 10: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Consumers that eat Producers to get energy:
• Are first order or primary consumers
• Are herbivores (plant-eaters)
![Page 11: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Most of the energy
the primary consumer gets from the producer is used by the consumer.
![Page 12: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Some of the energy
moves into the atmosphere
as heat.
![Page 13: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Some of the energy
is not lost to the atmosphere or used by the consumer.
This energy is available for another consumer.
(about 10%)
![Page 14: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
A consumer that eats another consumer for energy:
• Is called a secondary or second order consumer
• May be a carnivore or an omnivore
• May be a predator
• May be a scavenger
![Page 15: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Most of the energy the
secondary consumer gets from the primary consumer is
used by the secondary consumer.
Secondaryconsumer
![Page 16: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Some of the energy
is lost as heat, but some energy
is stored and can be passed on to another consumer
(about 10%).
![Page 17: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
A consumer that eats a consumer that already ate a consumer:
• Is called a third order or tertiary consumer
• May be a carnivore or an omnivore
• May be a predator
• May be a scavenger
![Page 18: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Consumers that eat xx producers & other consumers
• Are called omnivores
• Omnivores eat plants and animals
![Page 19: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Consumers that hunt & kill other consumers
are called predators.
The animals that are hunted & killed are called prey.
![Page 20: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Consumers that eat other consumers
that have already died are called scavengers.
![Page 21: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Consumers that chemically breakdown organic matter like animal
remains are called decomposers.
![Page 22: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The transfer of energy from sun
to producer to primary consumer
to secondary consumer to tertiary consumer
can be shown in a FOOD CHAIN.
![Page 23: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
FOOD CHAINS
A food chain shows the path of energy from one organism to the next
– energy flows from producers to
consumers
– arrows point to who is eating
(plant is eaten by herbivore)
– Can vary in lengthCan vary in length
– Usually decomposers are left out
![Page 24: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Another food chain

Another way of showing the transfer of energy in an
ecosystem is theENERGY PYRAMID.
![Page 26: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
10% Rule
ONLY 10% of the energy from an organism on one level can be passed on to an organism on the next level.
![Page 27: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Energy Pyramids
show • That the amount of available energy decreases down the food chain
• It takes a large number of producers to support a small number of primary consumers
• It takes a large number of primary consumers to support a small number of secondary consumers

Food Webs:
• Are interconnected food chains
• They show the feeding relationships in an ecosystem
![Page 31: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
FOOD WEBS• Typically, food webs go like this:
PRODUCER
CONSUMER(HERBIVORE)
CONSUMER(CARNIVORE)
CONSUMER(OMNIVORE)
DECOMPOSER
remember: decomposers receive energy from all other organisms in an ecosystem
![Page 32: Flow of energy 2013](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020123/55ab332a1a28ab5b7a8b4584/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
FOOD CHAINS AND WEBS• Practice! Draw a food
chain that includes the following organisms:– grasshopper– mouse– grass– owl
• Now label the organisms as producers, consumers (which type?), or decomposers PRODUCER
CONSUMER(HERBIVORE)
CONSUMER(CARNIVORE)

FOOD CHAINS/WEBS & ENERGY PYRAMIDS
• Food chains/webs can be written as a pyramid:
– Producers form the base of the pyramid
– Consumers form the upper layers
