  1. 29.Ocean Food Webs • EQ: What are the different aquatic ecosystems? Why are they so important to life on Earth? • LT:I can identify the organisms within various trophic levels in aquatic ecosystems (such as estuary, wetlands and oceans) . • POU: I will differentiate between plankton, nekton, and benthos. • I will identify the different types of animals in the ocean. • I will identify key properties of Earth’s oceans.

  2. Welcome! It’s Tuesday 3/11/14 WARM UP: 1. What is an ecosystem? 2. What is the difference between a PRODUCER and a PRIMARY CONSUMER? • Please record your responses at www.goo.gl/vta7d1

  3. The food web show the interactions between organisms in a meadow ecosystem • Which organism gets food energy directly from both plants and animals?

  4. How are estuaries connected to oceanic organisms? • Estuaries provide a nursery grounds for oceanic organisms • Estuaries provide sunlight for oceanic organisms. • Estuaries provide primary food for oceanic organisms. • Estuaries provide excess dissolved oxygen for oceanic organisms

  5. HW: What’s for lunch or dinner? Create your own food chain based on a recent meal. Label each item in the meal, diagram where the food item comes from Label the different trophic levels This is a HOMEWORK assignment due Friday 3/14/14

  7. Ocean Food Webs 20

  8. Plant life: small, unicellular plant cells, photosynthesizing algae, & seaweeds.

  9. Animal life: Many different types, sizes, species.

  10. Here is the Energy Web: Suns Energy  Plants, Algae & Photoplankton (“Producers” - do photosynthesis)  Animals & Zooplankton (“Consumers” - Eat to get energy)

  11. Types of Animals in the Ocean Plankton • Plankton = Floating animal (usually one to a few cells) • Nekton = Swimming, maneuvering animals (fish, sharks, seals, etc.) • Benthos = Bottom dweller (on or in the seafloor) Nekton Benthos (ex. Halibut)

  12. TED Video: Secret Life of Plankton (5:40 minutes) http://www.ted.com/talks/the_secret_life_of_plankton?utm_source=newsletter_weekly_2012-04-03&utm_campaign=newsletter_weekly&utm_medium=email#

  13. Popplet: Create an Ocean Food Web • You need 3 plankton, 3 nekton, and 3 benthos in your food web. • You also need at least one TERRESTRIAL (a.k.a. land) organism that eats something in your Ocean food web. • This is due by Friday 3/14/14

  14. Google Drive: To SUBMIT YOUR WORK • Log in to your Google Drive account • Use your zscalerusername@dpsnc.netand your zscalerpassword to login • Create a new folder and label it 6.Name.Science.Folder • Click the i or on your folder • Tap the Share icon • Type my email address: • cynthia.stoffregen@dpsnc.net • Click “✔” • Put the following items in the Folder (upload to your google drive, then • Water Cycle Travel Log • Picture of Page 17 • Food Chain Activity • Ocean Food Web Popplet
