The sun allows the plants to make their own food and be the producers. Eventually if the animals die by natural causes, or if their bodies are on the ground decomposers will feed off of the body to get their nutrience. ]]> 2019-02-08 19:34:25 UTC https://padlet.com/92603/v7vy8fep45eg/wish/329380716 92603 https://padlet.com/92603/v7vy8fep45eg/wish/329380991 coho salmon and steelhead because they are the ones who support important fisheries. ]]> 2019-02-08 19:35:03 UTC https://padlet.com/92603/v7vy8fep45eg/wish/329380991 92603 https://padlet.com/92603/v7vy8fep45eg/wish/329381303 Humans planted eucalyptus trees that had come from Australia. They are taller and have roots that go far into the ground. Its flowers attract insects that and the bird that eat those insects. The flowers are sticky so birds had to adapt. ]]> 2019-02-08 19:35:46 UTC https://padlet.com/92603/v7vy8fep45eg/wish/329381303 92603 https://padlet.com/92603/v7vy8fep45eg/wish/329381501 Birds eventually evolved to have long bills so then they wouldn't get caught in the sticky gum, but they could still interact with the tree. The ecosystem becomes filled with litter such as fallen leaves and bark. They eucalyptus tree also kills the plants below it so that it can survive.]]> 2019-02-08 19:36:13 UTC https://padlet.com/92603/v7vy8fep45eg/wish/329381501 92603 https://padlet.com/92603/v7vy8fep45eg/wish/329381579 The tree could destroy other plants, which are the producers in the ecosystem. Without the producers the other animals above them would start to die out without the correct amount of food that they need to feed themselves and reproduce. Then without the birds feeding off of these producers, the owl would die off because it can't eat the birds. ]]> 2019-02-08 19:36:26 UTC https://padlet.com/92603/v7vy8fep45eg/wish/329381579 92603 https://padlet.com/92603/v7vy8fep45eg/wish/329381883 https://www.nps.gov/cabr/learn/education/upload/Life%20in%20Coastal%20Sage%20Scrub%20Teacher%20Packet.pdf
