Q

each organism show homeostasis in unique ways

A

lizards and snakes
- not in tall mountain, extreme cold
- don’t have ability to maintain internal temp
- don’t use food/metabolize to maintain body temp
- restrictive to live where they can get heat; behavior dictate how it works
Humans live everywhere, anywhere, but water

Energy Flow

A

Energy is a constant in the universe
- total quantity never changes, only the form of energy
The way energy flows through the universe or part of the universe determines the nature of the things and events happening there

Q

Structure determines function

A
  • the structures found in living things are closely linked with their functions, so much so that the same structures are found over and over again in very different kinds of organisms because they serve the same functions.

64
Q

What is the purpose of the The decay and breakdown of previously living organisms

A

It releases nutrients back into the soil {or water} where the plants (or other producers) may use them.

65
Q

What is the purpose of decomposition process?

A

forms a cycling of nutrients (natures Urecycling” program).

66
Q

What are omnivores?

A

organisms that feed on both plant and animal materials.
o Eat anything that they can get their hands on
o Bear eats fish, rodents, berries, leaves, nuts

67
Q

What is ecosystem energy flow?

A

Energy flows through an organism as it ingests food, and then digests the food to release energy to do work.

68
Q

As organisms release energy to do work, what happens to the energy and why?

A

most of the energy is lost in the form of heat, because the energy conversion process is not very efficient.

69
Q

What is the purpose of the two energy laws of physics?

A

Two of the energy laws of physics can help us to understand what happens to energy.
Laws of Thermodynamics

70
Q

What is the first law of thermodynamics?

A

Energy can be neither created nor destroyed, only converted from one form to another.
 Only thing can happen change/convert type of energy form to another

71
Q

What is the second law of thermodynamics?

A

Whenever energy is converted from one form to another, some (often much) of the useful energy (energy available to do work) is dissipated (given off) to the surroundings as heat energy.

 Every time energy is converted it cannot be converted 100%
 Theres always a loss – always ends up as heat
 Heat – unusable form of energy
 Convert sunlight into chemical
o Never 100%
o Produce some heat (can’t be use by living things)
o Sugar (represent chemical energy) -> (loss energy- heat) -> C02 + H20
 Entrophy

72
Q

What is entropy?

A

Over time, this loss of useful energy (energy available to do work) results in a gradual disorganization of a system, the process known as Entropy.

73
Q

What are 3 principle functions within an Ecosystem?

A
  1. Producers (photosynthesis/autotrophs)
  2. Consumers (eats autotrophs – 2 basic type: primary, secondary)
  3. Decomposers
74
Q

What are the two basic types of consumers and what do they eat?

A
  1. Primary - eats only autotrophs

2. Secondary - eats primary consumers

75
Q

What does producers do?

A

 Producers
o Takes in inorganic materials: H20, CO2 and turns them into organic compound (sugar, protein, etc)
o These organisms are able to build up their own body tissues and energy reserves using energy from the sun, carbon dioxide from the air, and water
o Under ideal condition, plants store energy at three times the rate at which they use it
 Store in their tissue
• Food source for other organism

76
Q

Photosynthesis

A

 Process requires energy input that comes from the sun

 C02 + H20 = (sunlight) =  sugar + 02

77
Q

o 3 kinds of producers

A

 Green plants
 Algae
 Cyanobacteria

78
Q

Consumer Organisms

A 
o	Organisms that eat other organisms for food are called consumers
o	Consumers use the energy and nutrients stored in the tissues of their food
o	Primary consumers
	Herbivores
o	Heterotrophs (other feeders)
o	2ndary consumers
	Eats primary consumers
	Carnivores
79
Q

Trophic level Heirarchy

A

o Producers – plants
o Herbivores – primary consumers
o Carnivores – 2ndary consumers
o Top Carnivores - Organisms that has no predators; tertiary consumers

80
Q

What is the purpose of eating each other?

A

energy transfer

81
Q

Energy Transfer

A

 Powered ultimately by the sun
 A fuel chain
o One organism providing fuel for the growth of the next level

82
Q

Decomposers

A

o (All process organisms shedding tissue; waste products; dead leaves)
o Saprobes
o Process forms a cycling of nutrients (natures “recycling” program
 Organism that eat dead materials
o A type of consumer
o Heterotrophs
 Not hunting, not eating living material
o Returning organic material and turn it back into inorganic material
o Dead material
 Detritus
o Detritivores

83
Q

Types of energy

A 
o	Radiant
o	Heat 
o	Chemical
o	Electrical
o	Mechanical
o	Can be converted from one to another
84
Q

Ecosystem Organization

A

Nutrients are “cycled” within an ecosystem but energy “flows” through an ecosystem and thus must be continually replenished
 On avg the conversion of energy from one form to the next
o Transfer from trophic level to trophic level (herb to omni) only 10% (rest is heat)
Inorganic material – soil
By decomposers lose all energy loss as heat – all nutrients return to soil, but energy is lost
Energy flows through ecosystem in one direction, has to constantly be replenished by the sun
Nutrients gets recycled through ecosystem, energy one way

As each member of the “fuel chain” does its part there is less energy available to do work within the living organisms
 100% loss to environment of energy; nutrient returns to environment
Conversion Effeciency

85
Q

Top of of the food chain

A

 Fewer, rarer
Each level of trophic feeding level only gets 10% energy from what it eats, by the time it reaches the top of the food chain, it only gets .1% of energy from the sun. Top Carnivores does not get enough or have access to complete energy to reproduce.
Producers 100% energy -> primary consumers 10% -> secondary consumers 1% -> tertiary consumers (top) .1%

86
