In this section, students engage with exercises that enhance their understanding of ecosystems, food chains, and the roles of different organisms within these systems. The exercises encourage students to think critically about environmental issues and their personal responsibilities.
In this section, we explore how various exercises provide insights into ecosystems and the interdependence of organisms, from producers to consumers and decomposers. The exercises prompt students to design an aquarium, categorize organisms based on how they obtain food, and examine food chains. Moreover, the emphasis is placed on understanding the impact of human activities on ecosystems, such as waste disposal and chemical use, leading to critical discussions regarding environmental conservation and sustainability.
Ecosystem: A community of organisms and their environment interacting as a system.
Food Chain: A sequence showing how energy is transferred from one organism to another.
Producers, Consumers, Decomposers: The three main types of organisms in an ecosystem.
Biodegradable vs Non-biodegradable: Understanding waste types and their impact on the environment.
From plants to herbivores, energy flows, up to carnivores, everyone knows!
In a lush green garden, a curious rabbit munches on grass, while a wise old owl watches from above, teaching us how life interconnects.
Remember 'P-C-D' for Producers, Consumers, and Decomposers in nature!
A garden as a natural ecosystem with its plants and animals.
A classroom as an artificial ecosystem, where students observe interactions among resources.
