  2. Eats other organisms. Consumers

  3. If a fox eats a bunny, and the bunny eats grass, what type of consumer is the fox? Second-level consumer

  4. Makes its own food. producers

  5. Best way to represent a large complex system (ex. water cycle). computer model

  6. In which process do producers use carbon from carbon dioxide to produce other carbon-containing molecules? photosynthesis

  7. What shape would the carbon cycle be in a physical model? circular

  8. Group of land ecosystems with similar climates and organisms. biome

  9. Ponds and rivers are what types of ecosystems? Fresh water

  10. Organisms that were brought by humans from one part of the world to another. Exotic species

  11. Overlapping food chains in an ecosystem. Food web
