The cause. We can have only one of these in each experiment The amount of energy passed when one organism eats another in the next trophic level. series of steps in an ecosystem in which organisms transfer energy AND transfer matter by eating and being eaten Food chains show a flow of ________ from the organism that is eaten to the organism that is eating it. Energy is lost due to unusable heat and waste A group of overlapping food chains connected together in an ecosystem (complex). A possible start to the food chain and are in the first trophic level of an energy pyramid Eats other carnivores to get energy and is in the fourth energy level of the trophic level. Type/form of energy each organism in a food chain is AND the form of energy passes along from one organism to another. Eats herbivores to get energy and is in the third trophic level of the energy pyramid. The variable that is measured in an experiment. The effect in an experiment. We can have only one of these in an experiment Eats producers to get energy and is in the second trophic level of the energy pyramid. Type of energy lost to the environment in a food chain A good way to show how energy moves from one feeding level to another in a food chain. Different feeding positions in a food chain or web. The variable that is kept the same in an experiment so that the results are not thrown off. We need as many as possible of these
