The Food Chain or Ecosystem and
Life Cycles for Animals
An ecosystem consists of four parts.
It begins with the sun at the top which
provides
energy to our green plants.
Green plants such as grass uses the sun
to produce sugar and protein in order to
grow.
The ecosystem consists of producers and consumers.
Plants are producers in the ecosystem chain.
Animals which are consumers are next in the
ecosystem.
Some of these animals are known as herbivores
which only eat plants.
Carnivores are the animals that get their
energy from eating other animals.
The next category are the people and animals
who eat plants and animals which are omnivores.
The end of the ecosystem consists
of another group of life which are the decomposers.
Decomposers such as bacteria and fungi eat
dead plants
Rabbits are Herbivores
Tigers are Carnivores
Dogs are Omnivores
Especially this little guy
Fungi such as mushrooms are Decomposers

Living Together
One way that living things can be linked
is in a food chain, which
may look like this: Above food chain image
Another way to link living things is in a
food web, which may look
like this: Image below
