What to Focus On
- Ecosystem = Biotic components + Abiotic components
- Producers make food using sunlight through photosynthesis
- Consumers depend on producers directly or indirectly
- Food chain shows 'who eats whom' in sequence
- Each level is called a trophic level
- Only 10% energy transfers to next level
- Energy flow is unidirectional (one-way)
- Sun is the ultimate source of all energy
- Plants capture only 1% of solar energy
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Energy flows in both directions in a food chain - from producers to consumers and back from consumers to producers
Food chains and food webs are the same thing - just different names for the same concept
The 10% rule means exactly 10% of organisms move from one trophic level to the next
