Food Chains and Trophic Levels

Autotroph

r

self producer

Primary Producer

r

feeling level in which organisms use photosynthesis to create or produce their own food so are named producers

P.P

r

stands for primary producer

1TL

r

1 trophic level

Protists

r

a single celled organism like algae that can photosynthesize

Plants

r

a living thing that can photosynthesize

Bacteria

r

free living organisms found everywhere that can photosynthesize

Heterotroph

r

different producer which feeds off autotroph or other heterotrophs

Primary Consumer

r

feeding level in which organisms are the first to feed on or consume another organism so are named primary consumers

2TL

r

2 trophic level

1°C

r

first degree consumer

Herbivore

r

only eats plants

Quarternary Consumer

Carnivore/Omnivore

r

carnivore - only eat meatomnivore - eat plants and meat

4°C

r

forth degree consumer

5TL

r

5 trophic level

Tertiary Consumer

4TL

r

forth trophic level

Carnivore/Omnivore

r

carnivore - only eat meatomnivore - eat plants and meat

3°C

third degree consumer

Secondary Consumer

Carnivore/Omnivore

r

carnivore - only eat meatomnivore - eat plants and meat

2°C

r

second degree consumer

3TL

r

third trophic level

Bioaccumulation

r

Occurs at each trophic level as individual organisms absorb the chemical and store it in their body

Biomagnification

r

Toxin increases that are transferred from one trophic level to the next in a food chain.

Biotic

harmful

r

hurtful

Competition

r

species rival for resources like food , mates or homes

Parasitism

r

one species (parasite) lives with/on/in a host that harms the host

Predation

r

one species hunts and kills another

non harmful

r

non hurtful

r

interaction between two species that benefits one

Mutualism

r

interaction between two species that benefits both

Sustainability

r

maintained for a long time. Lots of resources for now and future to be stable
