Use of a bug spray has decreased the number of mosquitoes. What will probably happen to the number of frogs and snakes? Frogs will increase, snakes will decrease Frogs will decrease, snakes will increase Frogs will decrease, snakes will decrease Frogs will increase, snakes will increase 3 / 15 Mushrooms get energy from breaking down dead organisms. Are mold and mushrooms the same type of organism? No, because they are different species. No, because they look different from each other. Yes, because they both get energy from breaking down dead organisms. Yes, because they both get energy from the Sun. 4 / 15 Organisms that break down dead organic material and wastes secondary consumer decomposers primary consumer producers 5 / 15 It is a detailed description of the species within a community and their relationships with each other; it shows how energy is transferred up food chains that are interlinked with other food chains.

The nonliving, physical factors that affect the living components in an ecosystem. Organisms that can make their own food, usually green plants. The living components of an ecosystem. 12 / 15 They only eat plants. herbivores vegetarians omnivores carnivores 13 / 15 Food chains show energy transfer between organisms. The size of a food chain can vary, yet there is a limit to the number of levels that a food chain can reach. Why is there a limit to the number of levels that a food chain can reach? Plants are not infinite in number. Energy is lost at each trophic level. Producers are limited by consumers. Carnivores are too large to be eaten. 14 / 15 Maggots feed on dead and decaying organisms for energy. What are maggots? producers decomposers heterotrophs autotrophs 15 / 15 It is a linear sequence of organisms through which nutrients and energy pass as one organism eats another.
