Energy and Matter
Arrows in a food chain show the flow of __________________.
Food Chain
____________ describes who eats whom. Starts with a producer, then proceeds w/ the levels of consumers (primary, secondary, tertiary).
Consumers
_____________ rely on other organisms for energy..

Food Webs
_____________ show us how different living things in an ecosystem are related through the food they eat .
A predator is an organism that eats another organism; the prey is the organism the predator eats.
Describe the predator prey relationship.
Decomposers like fungi and bacteria
What Breaks down Dead Organisms, this process eventually restores some materials back to soil.

Secondary Consumers
Biomass Pyramid
_________________ an ecological pyramid that shows the amount of matter contained in the organisms at each trophic level.
Genotype
____________are responsible for traits that are not directly observable, and directly inherites from parents.
____________________ are carnivores that eat herbivores

Tertiary Consumers
__________________ are carnivores that eat other carnivores .
populations
_____________ gets smaller as you move up each trophic level.
Apex Predators
_______________ are at the top of the food chain, and need to eat a lot because they only get 0.1% of original energy.

10%
As you move up each trophic level, only _____ of the energy is actually retained.
Plants
_______use sunlight to make organic compounds (sugars), which provide energy for their metabolic processes.
Animals
_________ get their energy and mass from food they ingest/absorb.
Consumers
___________ are directly or indirectly dependant on the photosynthetic output of producers.

Producers
_____________ organisms such as plants and algae that produce energy through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.
Marine
____________ is the largest biome covering 3/4ths of the earths surface (oceans, coral reefs, and estuaries
Freshwater
__________ biome charecteristics include low salt content and includes lakes, ponds, streams, rivers, and some wetlands).
Forest

5E Model
________________ is a teaching method containing 5 parts, each of the work together to make learning active, fun, and effective.
RNA
____ is single stranded and has a Uracil base (U), it is also a messenger for protein synthesis, and a structural component of ribosomes (tRNA).
Gene
_______ refers to the segments of DNA, which determines a specific characteristic or trait of an organism (can be a few bases or thousands of base pairs long).
Central Dogma for protein synthesis
_________________________________ is the process of converting the infor stored in DNA into proteins (DNA replication, transcription, translation)

Holistic
_________ rubrics provide one overall score for the assignment rather than evaluating each criterion seperately .
Analytic
_______ rubrics are a type of assessment rubric in which component categories are broken down.
Generalizations about the new learning is applied to previous investigastions and new hypotheses are tested to draw conclusions
