Question

reading tool make connections the concept map below shows the relationships between different organisms in this lesson. as you read, complete the concept map using vocabulary terms and other key terms from the lesson. after you have completed the concept map, use a colored pencil to shade all the producers. then use a different colored pencil to shade all the consumers.

Explanation:

Autotrophs are also called producers. Producers that use solar energy perform photosynthesis, and those using chemical energy perform chemosynthesis. Consumers that are meat - eating are carnivores, plant - eating are herbivores, plant - and meat - eating are omnivores, detritus - producing are decomposers (in a sense as they break down organic matter), detritus - feeding are detritivores, and carcass - consuming are scavengers.

Answer:

Top - right box: producer
Middle - left box: photosynthesis
Middle - right box: chemosynthesis
Bottom - left box (meat - eating): carnivore
Bottom - middle box (plant - eating): herbivore
Bottom - middle box (plant - and meat - eating): omnivore
Bottom - left box (detritus - producing): decomposer
Bottom - middle box (detritus - feeding): detritivore
Bottom - right box (carcass - consuming): scavenger
