3. RECAP!!!
There are three types if Consumers in the
animal kingdom.
Herbivores – Animals that eat only plants.
Carnivores – Animals that eat only animals.
Omnivores – Animals that eat both animals
AND plants. Humans are also Omnivores.
4. WHAT ARE CONSUMERS
AND PRODUCERS?
A consumer is a person or thing that don’t
make their own food.
A producer is a person or thing that makes
or grows goods or their own food.
6. Every living things need energy
in order to live.
All living things get energy from
the food they eat.
Plants use Sunlight, water and nutrients to get
energy (in a process called Photosynthesis).
Energy is necessary for living beings to grow.
7. TROPHIC LEVELS
Primary producers – Organisms that make their
own food from sunlight and are the base of
every food chain.
Primary Consumers are animals that eat primary
producers also call Herbivores (plant-eaters).
Secondary consumers eat primary consumers.
They are Carnivores (meat-eaters) and
Omnivores (eat both plants and animals).
Tertiary Consumers eats secondary consumers.
8. WHAT ARE FOOD CHAINS?
A Food Chain shows how each living thing
gets food, and how nutrients and energy
passes from creature to creature. Food
Chains begin with plant-life, and end with
animal-life.
Some animals eats plants and some animals
eat other animals.
Example: Simple Food Chain
Grass Rabbit Fox
( Means Eaten By)
10. FOOD WEB
A food web (or food cycle) is the natural
interconnection of food chains.
11. DECOMPOSERS
Decomposers are Bacteria and Fungi
because they eat decaying matter-dead
plants and animals and in the process they
break them down.
They release nutrients and mineral salts
back into the soil – which then will be
used by plants!
12. ASSIGNMENT THREE
The students will get into their groups and come
up with a food chain on their own, drawing it
onto paper.
