Ecology Project Day 3

Create an energy pyramid.
Place each organism into the correct trophic level.  List the names only. No drawing is needed.



 You will construct a Food Web by using the  animals listed. The ecosystem represents a farm area.  The corn is the main source of food for many of the herbivores in the area.   You do not have to draw pictures, you can just use the animal namedand draw arrows between them.

The species to use for this food web are: snake, corn, caterpillar, deer, crow, mouse, cougar, squirrel, micro-oganisms, (decomposers).


From the list above, identify:
1) Producers
2) Primary consumers
3) Tertiary consumers
4) herbivores
5) Carnivores
6) Omnivores
7) What elements are missing from this food web?
