Across
- 4. Region of planet containing life, made of many ecosystems
- 5. Living
- 7. C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy (ATP)
- 8. The study of relationships between living and nonliving things in an environment
- 11. Type of energy considered low quality and not easily used to do work so is often released as waste
- 14. Use photosynthesis, turn sunlight into chemical energy
- 15. Organisms that must eat to get energy
- 17. Nonliving
- 18. Organisms that can create their own energy
Down
- 1. Type of productivity where herbivores create biomass by eating plants
- 2. Type of feedback that amplifies a change/ effect (good or bad)
- 3. Type of primary productivity involving the rate at which consumers make useful chemical energy
- 6. The process where bacteria create chemical energy from other substances (no sunlight)
- 9. Type of species that hold the energy flow of the ecosystem in balance
- 10. Type of productivity involving photosynthesis where plants use sunlight and nutrients to grow
- 12. Type of primary productivity involving the total rate of photosynthesis in a given area
- 13. 6CO2 + 6H20 +light energy -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
- 16. Organisms in an area and their physical surroundings
