SPRINT 2 RETROSPECTIVE

• Did all the work get done on time?
• How was the communication in the group?
• What went well?
• What could be improved?
• Would you change the group rules?
• Who is the next scrummaster?

STAND-UP MEETING: SPRINT 3

• Is sprint 3 organised?
• Does everyone have acces to all folders?
• Does everyone know what they need to do?
• Is everyone on track?
• Have your organised the scrumboard for sprint 3?
• WILL SPRNT 3 BE FINISHED FOR THE DEADLINE?

TODAY:

• ROLES
• TROPHIC LEVELS
• FOODCHAINS/ FOODWEBS
• PYRAMIDS

KERBOODLE PAGES 302-304

Producers

• THESE ARE USUALLY PLANTS BECAUSE THEY PRODUCE ENERGY BY MEANS OF ............
• IT CAN ALSO BE PHYTOPLANKTON OR BACTERIA.
• A FOOD CHAIN MUST ALWAYS START WITH A PRODUCER
• THESE ORGANISMS ARE AUTOTROPHIC

Consumers

• A CONSUMERS EATS OTHER ORGANISMS
• A PRIMARY CONSUMER EATS APRODUCER
• A SECONDARY CONSUMER EATS THE PRIMARY CONSUMER

AND SO ON...

• THESE ORGANISMS ARE HETEROTROPHIC

Decomposers

DECOMPOSERS ARE ALSO KNOWN AS DETRITIVORES EAT THE WASTE AND DEAD ANMALS AND CONVERT THIS INTO NUTRIENTS FOR THE PRODUCERS

Vores:

- herbivore

- carnivore

- omnivore

- detritivore

Pyramid of numbers:

• The amount of individual organisms in the community reflected in a pyramid.
• Each trophic level of a food chain is represented with a bar. 
• The amount of individuals in each trophic leel is represented by the size of the bar. 

Pyramid of biomass:

• The total biomass of all organisms in the community reflected in a pyramid.
• The total bimass of each trophic level of a food chain is represented with a bar. 
• The amount organisms in each trophic level is multiplied by the mass of each individual to get the biomass.

PROJECT SPRINT 3:

• a food chain / food web including your apex predator
• Explain how your apex predator has specialised for hunting its prey and how has the prey adapted to survive. (250 words)

STAR 1

CREATE A PYRAMID OF NUMBERS OF BIOMASS SHOWING THE POSITION OF YOUR APEX PREDATOR WITHIN THE ECOSYSTEM. (50 WORDS AND A PICTURE FOR EVERY TROPHIC LEVEL)

STAR 2

(250 WORDS AND PICTURES)

HOW IS YOUR APEX PREDATOR PLACED ON THE WORLD EXTINCTION LIST

WHAT IS/CAN BE DONE TO PROTECT THEM

WHAT HELP DOES THE SPECIES NEED TO SURVIVE?
