Create a model which accurately, in detail, depicts the potential pathways of carbon (biomass) and energy in an ecosystem with at least five trophic levels (don’t forget your decomposers, they can count as one trophic level). Make sure to incorporate the multiple pathways that biomass and energy could take at each trophic level. Lastly, clearly illustrate how carbon and energy flow in this ecosystem. Be sure to include adequate levels of detail for all pathways and differentiate the flow of carbon and energy in your model.

These various life forms are highly interdependent and have formed important systems that continually reshape the planet's landscapes, oceans, and atmospheres. Booming human population growth over the last two centuries has put, and continues to put, many of these life-sustaining systems out of balance and in serious jeopardy, endangering many of the plant and animal species that human beings directly and indirectly depend upon for long-term survival. Bigger human populations naturally mean increases in human activities worldwide, leading to changes in landscapes, oceans, atmospheres, and the path of human history. For example, as noted in the benchmark of this lesson, human activities like reducing the amount of forest cover, increasing the amount and variety of chemicals released into the atmosphere, and intensive farming, have changed the earth's land, oceans, and…arrow_forwardCreate a model which accurately, in detail, depicts the potential pathways of carbon and energy in an ecosystem with the following organisms: grass, mice, snakes, and hawks (don’t forget your decomposers as well).Make sure to incorporate multiple pathways and clearly illustrate how carbon and energy flow in this ecosystem.arrow_forward
