Ecology Basics & Feeding Relationships

Biology Georgia Performance Standards

SB4b. Explain the flow of energy and matter through the ecosystem.

Biotic vs. Abiotic

After watching the clip explain the difference between biotic and abiotic and at least two interactions between these factors.

Biotic

Abiotic

At least two interactions between biotic and abiotic factors:

Organization

Define each of the terms: organism, population, community, & ecosystem

Organism

Population

Community

Ecosystem

Biome & Biosphere

Define each term and create an analogy for each.

Biome

Analogy for Biome

Biosphere

Analogy for Biosphere

E.Q. How do organisms get their energy?

Think-Pair-Share

Autotrophs (A.K.A. Producers)

Create an analogy for autotrophs (self-feeders)

Heterotrophs (A.K.A. Consumers)

Create an analogy for heterotrophs

Consumers

After watching the video clips, define herbivore, carnivore, and omnivore. Give an example of each type of consumer.

Herbivore

Ex.

Carnivore

Ex.

Omnivore

Ex.

Detritivores & Decomposers

Watch the video clip: then define detritivores and decomposers and create an analogy for both.

Decomposers

Analogy for Decomposers

Detritivores

Analogy for Detritivores

Closing

Revisit your think-pair-share activity, write at least two things you did not include when you completed this activity that you learned during this lesson. BE PREPARED TO SHARE!!!!

Ecological Organization & Energy Extended Notes

Species or Individual one of a particular organism.

Population all of a particular species living in an area at a given time.

Community an interacting group of species in a common location.

Ecosystem a group of interacting communities and their interaction with their environment.

Biome geographically and climatically similar regions on Earth with similar climates and communities and abiotic factors.

Biosphere the earth and its atmosphere that are capable of supporting life.
