Final Jeopardy
$100 Question from H1
Why is the seemingly simple process of fungi slowly breaking
down and digesting a dead leaf important?
$100 Answer from H1
It is important because it allows energy and nutrients to flow through
ecosystems, because the fungi converts the cellulose into usable
nutrients that can be consumed by consumers.
$200 Question from H1
What does ‘Biomass’ refer to?
$200 Answer from H1
Biomass refers to the total mass of living plants animal's, fungi and
bacteria living in the given area.
$300 Question from H1
How did the fungi make the leaf tissue disappear?
$300 Answer from H1
The fungi secrete enzymes break down leaf tissue and cellulose
into smaller nutrients.
$400 Question from H1
In an ecosystem what are the producers, primary consumers,
secondary and Tertiary consumers?
$400 Answer from H1
Producers: Plants
Primary consumers: herbivores
Secondary and tertiary consumers: carnivores
$500 Question from H1
What do plants produce during photosynthesis that is used as
food?
$500 Answer from H1
Carbohydrates
$100 Question from H2
In which two ways does an organism interact in an
Ecosystem?
$100 Answer from H2
Organisms in an ecosystem interacts with that ecosystem in two ways:
1)The organism obtains food energy from the ecosystem.
2) The organism contributes energy to the ecosystem.
$200 Question from H2
What is energy flow?
$200 Answer from H2
The flow of energy from one ecosystem to an organism and from one
organism to another is called energy flow.
$300 Question from H2
If an insect such as a bee feeds on a plant such
as a sunflower it is a ____
$300 Answer from H2
Primary Consumer
$400 Question from H2
Organisms such as bacteria and fungi are called decomposers.
Decomposers change what into useable nutrients?
$400 Answer from H2
Decomposers change wastes and dead organisms into useable nutrients.
$500 Question from H2
What happens during biodegration?
$500 Answer from H2
Living organisms such as bacteria break down dead organic matter.
This process is called biodegration.
$100 Question from H3
What is each step in a food chain called?
$100 Answer from H3
Trophic level
$200 Question from H3
Give one example of a:
Primary producers
Primary consumers
Secondary consumers
Tertiary comsumers
$200 Answer from H3
Primary producers: algae
Primary consumers: krill
Secondary consumers: crab
Tertiary consumers: sea otter
$300 Question from H3
What are Dertrivores?
$300 Answer from H3
Dertrivores are consumers that obtain their energy and nutrients by eating
the bodies of small dead animals, dead plant matter and animal waste.
$400 Question from H3
Between Herbivores, Carnivores and Omnivores
Which one eats just plants?
$400 Answer from H3
Herbivores
$500 Question from H3
What role do herbivores have in a food chain?
$500 Answer from H3
To eat primary producers.
$100 Question from H4
True or False:
When you eat meat, vegetables or fruit, the foods energy
is transferred into your body.
$100 Answer from H4
True
$200 Question from H4
Food pyramids are often referred to as
______ _____.
$200 Answer from H4
Ecological pyramids
$300 Question from H4
What does a food pyramid tell us about energy flow?
$300 Answer from H4
Food pyramids illustrate that most of the suns energy that is
trapped by plants flows out of an ecosystem. Food pyramids
also show how important plant life is for making energy
available in ecosystems.
$400 Question from H4
What happens to the food energy taken
by an organism?
$400 Answer from H4
This energy is used for chemical reactions in
the body and eventually is lost to the ecosystem
As heat.
$500 Question from H4
How do you know when food energy is wasted?
$500 Answer from H4
You know food energy is wasted when some foods remain
