Diagram showing the trophic level ~ Level in food chain

Main source of energy for all living things

Makes its own food ~Autotroph~

The process of making food ~Making in producers~ Sunlight + Carbon Dioxide (CO2) + Water (H2O) —> Sugar (Energy) + Oxygen (O2)

An organism that eats other organisms (Heterotroph)

An organism that only eats plants

An organism that only eats animals

An organism that eats organisms that are already dead

An organism that eats both plants and animals

An organism that breaks down the remains of dead plants and animals ~Recycles~

The transfer of energy ( ~ Food ~ ) from one organism to another

When different chains overlap

The contest among organisms to get all they need to survive

The role ( ~ Job ~ ) a species has within a community

An organism that kills and eats prey to obtain energy

An organism that gets eaten by the predator
