SCI 7 Unit 6
Matter and Energy in Ecosystems
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the matter that makes up the nonliving parts of an ecosystem? | Abiotic Matter |
| What is the matter that makes up the living and dead organisms in an ecosystem? | Biotic Matter |
| What is an organism that needs to eat in order to get energy storage molecules? | Consumer |
| What is an organism that gets energy storage molecules by breaking down dead matter? | Decomposer |
| Starch, fat, and glucose are all examples of what? | Energy Storage Molecules |
| Air and water are examples of what type of matter? | Abiotic Matter |
| What is all the living and nonliving things interacting in a particular area? | Ecosystem |
| What are the inputs (reactants) of photosynthesis? | Water, Energy from Sunlight, and Carbon Dioxide |
| Grass is a producer, which would be consider what type of matter? | Biotic Matter |
| What are the outputs (products) of cellular respiration? | Released Energy, Water, and Carbon Dioxide |
| Fungi, bacteria, mushrooms, and worms are all examples of what type of organism? | Decomposers |
| What atom can be part of both biotic and abiotic matter? | Carbon |
| What process moves carbon from abiotic to biotic matter? | Photosynthesis |
| Are Energy Storage Molecules biotic or abiotic? | Biotic |
| Is Carbon Dioxide biotic or abiotic? | Abiotic |
| What are each of the types of organisms to use cellular respiration? (List all 3 types) | Producers, Decomposers, Consumers |
| What is the only type of organism to use photosynthesis? | Producers |
| What are the outputs (products) of photosynthesis? | Energy Storage Molecules, Oxygen |
| If there is more sunlight in an ecosystem, how would that impact producers and the process of photosynthesis? | More ESM's / more photosynthesis |
| If there is less carbon dioxide in an ecosystem, how would that impact producers and the process of photosynthesis? | Less ESM's / less photosynthesis |
| What process moves carbon from biotic to abiotic matter? | Cellular Respiration |
