6. Producers and consumer interact with anothers to form food chains.

8. SUN • Key Point #1: • The ___________ is the source of all energy.

9. Source What does the sun supply with energy?

10. Where does all of the energy enter the food chain? • Key Point #2: • All energy begins with the producer

11. SOURCE PRODUCERS Who consumes the producers?

12. ENERGY SOURCE PRODUCERS Herbivore Omnivore Carnivore

13. Key Point #3: • Primary consumer: Eats producers • Secondary consumer: Eats primary consumers • Tertiary consumer: Eats secondary consumers

14. ENERGY SOURCE Secondary Consumer Tertiary Consumer PRODUCERS Primary Consumer Herbivore Omnivore Carnivore

15. Organisms in food chains are connected by: • Arrows • Key Point #4: • Arrows show the flow of energy

16. OR

17. Key Point #5: • Arrows point TO the organism receiving energy • Tip: arrow points from the food into the belly of the predator.

19. A food web is made of multiple food chains

20. The arrow pointing from seed-eating birds to foxes shows that... A. Foxes eat birds B. Birds eat foxes C. Foxes and birds share food D. Foxes and birds compete for the same food A

23. But what happens if the food web gets interrupted? • Suppose the wolves eat ALL of the chickens and there are no chickens left? What do you think would happen?

24. Food Web Interactions • What do you think will happen to the rabbits, if all the vegetation is destroyed? • Key Point #7: Loss of food sources= extinction

25. Food Web Interactions • What do you think will happen to the cougar, if all of the deer die? • Key Point #8: Loss of SOME of food sources= decrease in size

26. Food Web Interactions • What do you think will happen to the mice, if all of the foxes are eaten by the cougars? • Key Point #9: Loss of PREDATORS= increase in size

27. What will happen to the mouse population, if a disease kills all the plants? A. All will go extinct B. Increase in size C. Decrease in size D. Reproduce more A
