Energy comes from the sun ☀️ plants uses the suns solar energy for photosynthesis which creates gluc]]> 2017-12-05 19:12:19 UTC https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/213464438 The first law thermodynamics artaviuswarren https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/213465304 Energy can change one form to another form but it can’t be destroyed or created]]> 2017-12-05 19:13:54 UTC https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/213465304 The Second Law of Thermodynamics artaviuswarren https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/213858060 2017-12-06 18:46:55 UTC https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/213858060 How Producers get their energy ? artaviuswarren https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/214272870 Producers makes sugar known as glucose through Photosynthesis. The energy from the sun helps producers do such a thing ]]> 2017-12-07 18:48:46 UTC https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/214272870 How herbivores get their energy ☘️ artaviuswarren https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/214276066 Herbivores are plant eaters. Herbivores get their energy by eating plants which are Producers which uses the sunlight to create Glucose.]]> 2017-12-07 18:54:39 UTC https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/214276066 How do Omnivores get their energy ? artaviuswarren https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/215164746 Omnivores get their energy from eating a diet containing plants, animals, algae,  and fungi. Due to the large variety of food options, they will eat what they can hunt and scavenge in their environment to make the most of what is available.]]> 2017-12-11 18:44:20 UTC https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/215164746 How do Carnivores get their energy ? artaviuswarren https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/215167979 Animals that eat other animals are called carnivores.Carnivores that eat herbivores are called secondary consumers, and carnivores that eat other carnivores are called tertiary consumers.]]> 2017-12-11 18:50:11 UTC https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/215167979 How do Decomposers get their energy ? artaviuswarren https://padlet.com/artaviuswarren/artaviusarren/wish/215169446 Decomposers break down dead organisms and animal waste.Through this process, decomposers release nutrients, such as carbon and nitrogen, back into the environment. These nutrients are recycled back into the ecosystem so that the producers can use them.
