Producers: organisms that make their own food through photosynthesis (sunlight). Consumers: organisms that cannot make their own food and need to eat other consumers. Decomposers: organisms that break down dead organisms and waste of living things. Scavengers: organisms that eat animals that are already dead.
- Herbivore - eats plants (producers).
- Carnivore - eats other animals (meat).
- Omnivore - eats both plants and animals.

Create a Everglade Food Chain
Using the organisms listed below create a food chain with 4 organisms.
Producers - Sawgrass - Mangroves - Cypress Trees - Phytoplankton - Bladderwort - Algae
Consumers - Marsh rabbit - Heron - White tailed deer - Osprey - Grasshopper - Alligator - Zooplankton - Raccoon - Frog - Sunfish
Create a Everglade Food Web
Using the organisms listed below create a food web with 10 organisms.
Consumers - Marsh rabbit - Heron - White-tailed deer - Osprey - Grasshopper - Alligator - Zooplankton - Raccoon - Frog - Sunfish
Producers - Sawgrass - Mangroves - Cypress Trees - Phytoplankton - Bladderwort - Algae
Create a Everglade Energy Pyramid
Using the organisms listed below create a energy pyramid with 4 producers and a total of 6 consumers.

Carnivore
Just A Little Vocab:
Primary - the first consumer, usually a herbivore.
Secondary - the second consumer, usually a carnivore or omnivore.
Tertiary - the third consumer, usually a carnivore or omnivore.
Quaternary - the fourth consumer, usually a carnivore (top/apex predator).
An energy pyramid shows how energy decreases from lower to higher trophic levels.
Each step of the food chain in the energy pyramid is called a trophic level.
10% Rule: Only about 10% of the energy from one step of the food chain is stored in the next step.
Food Chains & Energy Pyramids cannot exceed 5 organisms because the energy would run out.
