# Definition Sets
1the hierarchical levels of the food chain through which energy flows from primary producers to primary consumers, secondary consumers and so on.12 sets
2the role of an organism in nutrient and energy flow6 sets
3role in a feeding relationship4 sets
4the role of an organism in nutrient and energy flow within an ecosystem (e.g.,herbivore,carnivore,decomposer)4 sets
5eac step in a food web or chain3 sets
6the role of an organism in nutrient and energy flow within an ecosystem (e.g., herbivore, carnivore, decomposer).3 sets
7the role of an organism in nutrient and energy flow within an ecosystem2 sets
8position in the food chain, determined by the number of energy-transfer steps to that level2 sets
9what position it is in what it eats and what eats it2 sets
10links in a food chain2 sets
11hierarchy of feeding relationships2 sets
12the levels on an energy pyramid2 sets
13links in food chains2 sets
14energy and chemical flow in population through feeding relationships2 sets
15the role of an organism in nutrient and energy flow within an ecosystem (e.g., herbivore, carnivore, decomposer)2 sets
16position of an organism in a food chain or food pyramid1 set
17producers (autotrophs), primary consumers (herbivores), secondary consumers (carnivores), and decomposers (...cock roaches and stuff.)1 set
18grouping organisms by how they get food; feeding levels1 set
19a specific level for organisms based on the organisms source of energy1 set
20one of the steps in a food chain or food pyramid; examples include producers and primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers1 set
21each of the feeding levels in a food chain.1 set
22the different levels that show energy flow1 set
23the energy levels or steps in a food chain or food web: primary producer, primary consumer, secondary consumer, tertiary consumer e1 set
24functional role in a feeding relationship through which energy flows1 set
25producers(plants), primary consumers(herbivores), secondary consumers(carnivores), tertiary consumers(carnivores)1 set
26funcional classification: definig grps of species that derive their energy in a similar manner: feeding groups: organisms that derive energy from consuming plant and animal tissure are called heterotrophs, or secondary preducers, and are further subdivided into herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores based on their consumptin of plant tissues, animal tissues or both.1 set
27organization of plants and animals in order to examine the production and utilization of energy1 set
28different energy levels within a given food chain1 set
29any class of organisms that occupy the same position in a food chain, as primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers1 set
30feeding level or position on a food chain1 set
31rule of ten in pyramids of energy1 set
32feeding step in the passage of energy and materials1 set
33position that the organism occupies in the food chain - what it eat and what eats it1 set
34energy is lost at each level - at each level, when it eats its enemy it uses energy1 set
35in a food chain there a rarely more then six links known as trophic levels1 set
36different levels of the energy pyramid1 set
37step in the movement of energy through an ecosystem; an organism's feeding status in an ecosystem1 set
38each feeding step of the food chain; represents passage of energy and materials1 set
39the relationships between producers, primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers1 set
40each step in the food chain1 set
