Food pyramid Analysis and Food Chains

Moss can fit into both the decomposer section and the primary producer section. It breaks down certain organisms, like trees, but it is also a feeding source for some animals, like the caribou.

Food Chains

Matter and EnErgy Pt.1

The producers in my system include willow, moss, lichen, grass, labrador tea foxberry,and the pasque flower.

Matter And Energy Pt.1

These producers use photosynthesis. Its equation is 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Photosynthesis Continued

Water is an abiotic feature that should be included to help with photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast

Consumers

The consumers in this system include the ermine, lemming, duck, pika, musk ox, caribou, owl, wold, fox, and polar bear.

These animals use cellular respiration, which equation is C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

Matter and Energy Pt.2

ATP is very important because it is the main source of energy for these organisms.

The mitochondria is where cellular respiration occurs.

Matter and Energy

Matter and Energy

Carbon dioxide is expelled by animals when breathing out, while oxygen is obtained by breathing in. Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are related because their outputs and inputs are the same, just flipped.

Energy is transferred via the food chain by animals eating each other. However, every time energy is passed down from organism to organism, only 10% of that energy goes to the new organism.

Energy is lost within an ecosystem because after a few sections of the food chain, only a little bit of energy is left in some animals due to the 10% rule.

Components of the ecosystem

Components of the Ecosystem

The animals in my food web will live in the arctic climate. The average winter temperature will be around -30° F, while the average Arctic summer temperature will be around 37-54° F. There will be two seasons, winter and summer. There will be low precipitation throughout the year, but still plenty of snow. There will be full days of sunlight in the summer and low amounts of sunlight in the winter, with some days receiving none.

The arctic fox lives in burrows in the ground. They may also dig into the snow for a quick shelter. They don’t need much water and get what they do need from their prey.

My animal lives with very small groups of other arctic foxes, but does not hunt with them.

Arctic foxes are small animals, so they only need enough space for them to be able to sleep.

Water cycles through the ecosystem through animals, which is how arctic foxes get their hydration needs.

Creating A System

My system is open because there are inputs coming in but no outputs going out.

The boundary of my exhibit is a glass dome.

Feedback loops like increased reproduction when a population is low will sustain the system.

The populations include families of the animals in the arctic. The community is all of the animals in the entire system. The ecosystem includes all the animals plus the abiotic features like water and terrain. The biosphere is the arctic climate.
