What is the role of decomposers in a food chain?
Bacteria/ Fungi that break down dead plant/animals matter.

One adaptation is the ability to excrete less urine.
True or False: Climate graphs can help predict future weather patterns.
True
What is a secondary consumer?

What are the two main components of a climate graph?
Temperature and precipitation.
How have gerbils adapted
Can burrow through rough sand - strong, powerful, sharp paws to create a burrow where the temp is moderate - during the day desert = hot, during the night desert = cold.

What is energy in the food chain (generally)?
- Sun!* REMEMBER!
What is energy in the food chain (generally)?
- Sun!* REMEMBER!
Why is the energy/ sblankn so important in the food chain?
The producer (a plant that converts the sun’s rays into energy) will not be able to receive sun’s energy - whole food chain collapses, lots of interdependence!
