Presentation Transcript

  1. The Food Chain

  2. Every living thing needs energy in order to live.Every time animals do something (run, jump, move) they use energy to do so.

  3. Animals get energy from the food they eat, and all living things get energy from food. Plants use sunlight, water and nutrients to get energy (in a process called (Photosynthesis).

  4. Energy is necessary for living beings to grow. A food chain shows how each living thing gets food, and how nutrients and energy are passed from one organism to another. Food chains begin with plant-life(autotrophs/producers), and then energy is transferred to (heterotrophs/consumers).

  5. Decomposers recycle and break-down the remaining matter after producers and consumers die. Bacteria Fungi Protists

  6. A simple food chain could start with grass, which is eaten by rabbits. Then the rabbits are eaten by foxes. Arrows show energy transfer.
