This document contains power point slides about ecosystems. It defines a food chain as a hierarchical series of organisms with each dependent on the next as a food source. It explains trophic levels as the feeding positions in a food chain, such as producers, herbivores, and carnivores. It describes an ecological pyramid as a graphical representation showing the biomass at each trophic level in an ecosystem. It also outlines the carbon cycle which is based on the movement of carbon between air, water, and living things via carbon dioxide. The slides were edited from other sources and are meant to teach about ecosystems, food chains, trophic levels, ecological pyramids, and the carbon cycle.
