Types of ConsumersKey Terms Description Examples
Food Web
Interconnected food chains; Complex diagram
showing feeding relationships
Food Chain
Energy Pyramid
A SIMPLE diagram showing flow of energy from ONE organism to another
A triangular diagram showing an ecosystem’s LOSS
of energy & its BIOMASS
The levels found on an energy pyramid or within food webs
Trophic Levels
Food Chain
Wait a second…how do producers get their energy?
Notice how it is linear…Food chains are very simple!
Energy Pyramid
Based on the data shown here…what
PERCENTAGE of energy moves up
the trophic levels?
10%
FOOD CHAIN Information
Consumers: Get ENERGY by EATING:Rabbit Grass, Grain, Leaves
Leaf Beetle Grass, Leaves
Mouse Grain
Frog Leaf Beetle
Snake Frog, Mouse, Rabbit
Hawk Snake, Frog, Mouse, Rabbit
Producers: How they get ENERGY:
Leaves/Grain/Grass Use sun’s energy to make theirown food
Let’s Create a Food Chain!•Use the organism cards provided to create two SIMPLE food chains.
•Make sure the ARROWS point to Who GETS the ENERGY!!
•When you are done, wait quietly for the timer to go off so we can share your ideas! (up to 5 min.)
Let’s Create a Food Web!•Now try combining more organisms to make a FOOD WEB.
•Make sure ARROWS point to Who GETS the ENERGY!!
•* You may use your eraser to draw arrows on your lab table connecting the organisms!
•When you are done, raise your hand to get it approved.
•Draw the web onto a sheet of notebook paper using WORDS & ARROWS only! (No pictures required!)
