Energy Transfer
❖ All living organisms require energy in order to maintain homeostasis
❖ #1 energy source = sun
❖ Two Major groups of organisms
➢ Autotrophs (known producer)
■ Make their own food (from the sun)
■ Through a process known as photosynthesis/Chemosynthesis
● Plants, bacteria
➢ Heterotrophs (known as consumers)
■ Eats food for energy
■ Can not make their own food
● 5 types
◆ Herbivore eat plants
➢ For ex
...
lions, wolves
◆ Omnivore eats meats and plants
➢ For ex
...
hyenas, opossum, crows, vultures
◆ Decomposers biodegrades things
➢ For ex
...
➢ Arrows show the flow of energy
■ 100% > 10% >1%>
...
❖ As an organism eat another only 10% of energy is transferred
...
➢ Moving of the pyramid is last so amount of energy decreases
...
❖ Not only is energy cycled in nature, but so is matter
...
Water vapor collects in the atmosphere as
condensation and forms clouds as accumulation continues
...
❖ Carbon Cycle
➢ All life on Earth is based on carbon molecules
...
Photosynthesis
❖ What is Photosynthesis?
➢ The process of changing sun energy into food plants can use
...
Cellular Respiration
❖ What is Cellular Respiration?
➢ Process used by living organisms to take food, break it down and turn it into
cellular energy that cells can use
...
➢ It’s job is simply to make ATP, energy for the cell
...
◆ Waste Products:
➢ Carbon Dioxide
➢ Lactic Acid (this is what makes you sore after
exercise and is used in yogurt and other dairy
products as bacteria
...
