7 th Grade Science Ecosystem All the living and nonliving things that interact in an area Biotic Factors a living part of an ecosystem Abiotic Factors All of the nonliving parts of an ecosystem. Sound Energy . Chemical Energy . Electrical Energy . Mechanical Energy . Light Energy . Thermal . Energy . 5. th. Grade Science. Unit 4 Part 1. energy. - is the ability to do work. flow. . – to move or travel smooth in a certain direction. Everything is cycled throughout the planet!. Everything in nature is cycled throughout the entire planet. Since matter and energy cannot be created or destroyed, it is changed, or transformed into many different things.. and Matter Exchange in the Biosphere. Unit A. Systems. Objects . or . groups of objects . that has a relationship to something else. Open . Energy and matter cross the systems boundaries. humans, trees. – interaction between two species. Sometimes . beneficial. , sometimes . harmful. …. There are a few types:. Commensalism. Mutualism. Parasitism . Commensalism. Commensalism. - an . association between two organisms in which one benefits and the other derives . &. Matter and Energy. . Main Idea. You will be able to . demonstrate. . an understanding of the properties of matter and energy and their interactions.. [8 questions on STAAR]. Matter has measurable physical properties. . Objectives:. Identify and describe the flow of nutrients in each biogeochemical cycle. . Explain the impact that humans have on the biogeochemical cycles. .. What happens to energy in an ecosystem?. using various models including . food chains. , food webs, and ecological pyramids. Lesson frame. :. We will analyze the flow of energy and matter through a food chain.. I will complete the Looney Labels Food Chain activity. Biosphere: All life on earth and parts of earth in which life exists (land, water and atmosphere). Studying Our Living planet. Science of Ecology. Study of interactions of living things, their surroundings or environments. Think!. What is a cycle? What are some cycles you know about in the world we live in?. What is a cycle?. A single complete execution or a periodically repeated phenomenon.. What does that mean?. Single – it happens one time. Matter and Energy What is matter? Matter and Energy What is matter? It's what everything that occupies space and has mass is made of And everything like that is made out of chemical elements There are 92 naturally occurring chemical elements, and a number of synthetic ones UnitSummaryHow do some organisms turn electromagnetic radiation into matter and energyStudents provide a mechanistic account for how cells provide a structure for the plant process of photosynthesis i Cycling of matter within living systems. Example of living system: compost bin. Conservation of Matter. Matter of a closed system will remain constant over time. Matter is not created or destroyed but transformed into more complex forms. Honors. Chemistry. Guiding Questions. Why do substances boil or freeze at different temperatures?. . Why do we put salt on the roads in the winter? . Why does sweating cool us? . What is energy? . How do we measure energy? . Photosynthesis . and . Cellular Respiration. Energy is the ability to do work.. Without ability to . obtain & use . energy, life would NOT exist.. One of the most important compounds that cells use to store & release energy is .
