Resumo de Recurso
GCSE AQA Biology 1 Energy Transfer, Decay and The Carbon Cycle
Pyramids of Biomass
Biomass: Mass of living material
Less energy/biomass as you go up trophic levels
Mostly pyramid-shaped
Producer at the bottom
Energy Transfer
Energy from Sun - source of energy for life
Anotações:
Light energy converted to chemical energy
Green plants use small % of light in photosynthesis
Energy stored in cells - animals eat them
Respiration supplies energy for movement
Energy lost to surroundings as heat
Anotações:
Especially in mammals and birds - have to keep body at constant temp.
Some material is inedible and some is lost as waste
Hardly any food chains more than 5 levels
Anotações:
Because so much energy is lost. Therefore, there is not enough left to support more organisms
Decay
Plants take in elements and pass through food chain
Anotações:
Like carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen
Elements returned in waste products or when they die
Materials decay - broken down by microorganisms
Anotações:
Elements return to soil
Microorganisms work best in warm & moist conditions with oxygen
Composting
Benefits
Recycles minerals & nutrients
Reduces landfill
Reduces production of methane
The Carbon Cycle
Only 1 arrow coming down - photosynthesis
Anotações:
Carbon dioxide is removed from atmosphere by green plants, some of the carbon is used to make carbohydrates, fats and proteins in the plants
Some carbon returned as carbon dioxide - respiration
Anotações:
Some carbon moves through food chain to animals
When plants/animals die, detritus feeders and microorganisms feed on remains
These organisms respire
Animals produce waste
Anotações:
Broken down by detritus feeders and microorganisms
Useful plant/animal products are burnt (combustion) - releasing carbon dioxide
