Ecosystems and Plants

Ecosystems

6.L.2 Understand the flow of energy through ecosystems and the responses of

populations to the biotic and abiotic factors in their environment.

6.L.2.1 Summarize how energy derived from the sun is used by plants to

produce sugars (photosynthesis) and is transferred within a food chain

or food web (terrestrial and aquatic) from producers to consumers to

decomposers.

6.L.2.2 Explain how plants respond to external stimuli (including dormancy

and forms of tropism) to enhance survival in an environment.

6.L.2.3 Summarize how the abiotic factors (such as temperature, water,

sunlight, and soil quality) of biomes (freshwater, marine, forest,

grasslands, desert, Tundra) affect the ability of organisms to grow,

survive and/or create their own food through photosynthesis.
