Tiny photosynthetic organisms usually found in large bodies of water and are the most common producers in these waters Variable we make different in an experiment or test. Variable that we measure during an experiment Organisms that get their energy from the sun through photosynthesis Organisms that cannot produce their own food and must eat to get energy Organisms that only consume producers. Tiny organisms usually found in large bodies of water that consume other small organisms. A waste product produced by plants during photosynthesis Carbon Dioxide, water, and sunlight A sugar produced during photosynthesis by producers Organisms that eat only consumers. Organisms that get their energy by breaking down dead organisms and animal wastes AND make nutrients in the soil. Organisms that eat both plants and animals
