Exploring Energy Transfer in the Salt Marsh Ecosystem Food Web

This assignment focuses on illustrating the complex interactions within the Salt Marsh ecosystem, specifically how matter and energy are transferred among organisms. Students will color a food web diagram according to specific categories: producers, first-level consumers, second-level consumers, third-level consumers, and decomposers. Key tasks include identifying the various organisms in each category, discussing the role of decomposers, and naming specific food chains that structure the food web. This activity emphasizes the interconnectedness of life and the recycling of materials in the ecosystem.
