Ch. 1 &2 Study Guide
Concepts
□ I can explain the one-way flow of energy through the biosphere and how
stored biological energy in the biosphere is eventually “lost” as thermal
energy
□ I can explain how biological energy in the biosphere can be perceived as a
balance between both photosynthetic and chemosynthetic, and cellular
respiratory activities
□ I can explain the structure of ecosystem trophic levels, using models such
as food chains and food webs
□ I can explain quantitatively, energy exchange in ecosystems, using models
such as pyramids of energy , biomass, and numbers
□ I can explain the interrelationship of energy, matter and ecosystem
productivity (biomass production)
□ I can explain how the equilibrium between gas exchanges in photosynthesis
and cellular respiration influences atmospheric composition
