-large molecules -Carbohydrate, Lipid, and Protein (aka 3 building blocks of life) -responsible for most structure and functions of the body;energy, storage, insulation, growth, communication

- carbon based -carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids

symbol for carbohydrate, lipid, and protein

Carbon; C,H,O Lipid; C,H,O Protein; C,H,O,N

Net energy release that creates energy molecules when bonds are broken

ATP; Adenosine Triposphate; energy molecules that allow cells to do the work needed to keep the organism alive and functioning.,

General rule for processes such as cell respiration

The more carbon atoms there are in a molecule, the more energy that molecule can provide to the organism when it is used as food

Which molecule is more likely to be a good source of energy for an organism

Protein because animals gain more

Process that ATP support

-cells growing -cells moving -cells dividing/reproducing -cells expelling waste

Elephants use mostly _____ from their diet for energy

Carbohydrates because their diet is herbivorous

Lions use mostly _______ from their diet for energy

Proteins because their diet is carnivorous

Basic unit for nutrient micro molecule

Carbohydrate- Glucose (C6H12O6) Protein- amino acids lipids(fats)- 1 glycerol and 2 fatty acids

Why do some species lack canine teeth?

Because their diet doesn't require them

They are used for grinding and chewing food

What makes plant material hard to digest

it contains cellulose, which is hard to break down.

Carnivore Omnivore herbivore Detrivore

organism that only eats meat- shorter digestive track organism that eats both eat and plants organisms that only eats plants- longer digestive track organism that feeds on other dead beings =, and return nutrients back to the soil

-feeding levels -Tertiary (consumer, carnivore) Secondary (consumer, carnivore) primary (consumer, herbivore) producers(auto- trophs)

make their own food- process of photosynthesis

Does the type of animal determine which trophic level they exist in

No, it depends on what the animal eats

Why are detrivores important

Help break down dead organic material and return them to the soil

all chemical activities inside the body

How does nitrogen get into the food web

-plants absorb nitrates from the soil, and animals eat the plants -through producers
