Trophic Levels of the Food Chain

*Click on a given trophic level in order to learn more

ProducersPrimary Consumers

Tertiary Consumer (same as Secondary Consumers)

Secondary Consumers

Producer• Largest portion of the food chain.

Autotrophic organisms; meaning, they produce there own food from the SUN. Click below to watch a video on

how to remember the facts about photosynthesis!Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis Diagram

Primary Consumer• Primary consumers are strictly the

HERBIVORES. They only eat plants (producer).

Secondary Consumer• Secondary consumers are

carnivores because they eat the primary consumers, which are

other animals.

IMPORTANT!1. All consumers are also known as

heterotrophic organisms because they do NOT produce their own food, as autotrophs (producers) do.

2. Autotrophs = PRODUCERS

3. Heterotrophs = HERBIVORES, OMNIVORES and CARNIVORES (ALL consumers)

QUICK REVIEW 1. Carnivore

2. Herbivore

3. Omnivore

WEATHER

LESSON REVIEW

QUIZ

Message from Spongebob!

LIGHTNING• Cause: in thunderstorms,

when liquid and ice particles above the freezing level collide and build up large electrical fields

Click for Video

TORNADO• Cause: when warm, moist air

along the ground rushes upward, meeting cooler, drier air.

Click to watch Tornado Video!

THUNDER• Cause: caused by the lightning

bolt! Sharp cracks of thunder are produced as the air around the lightning bolt gets super heated (60,000 F) and rapidly expands.

Click to watch Thunder Video!

HURRICANE• Cause: Earthquakes generated

in a subduction zone. A subduction zone is an area where an oceanic plate is being forced down into the mantle by plate tectonics.

EARTHQUAKE

Click to watch Earthquake Video!

Cause: Sudden release of energy in the Earth’s crust that creates seismic waves.
