Ecological Pyramid Assignment
Use pyramid cut out to do the three pyramids; energy, numbers, biomass
1. Energy expressed in kilocalories
2. Numbers expressed in organisms
3. Biomass expressed in kilograms
Energy Pyramid
Label the five trophic levels ( Producer, Primary Consumer, Secondary Consumer, Tertiary Consumer, and* Final Level Consumer) and show
the 10% going up each level with an arrow
ex: 10%
Put your birthdate (the day) and year (yyyy) in bottom left corner express in kilocalories and follow the ten percent rule of biomass moving
up the trophic levels
ex: you were born (January 14, 1995) your number would be 141,995 Kcal
Numbers Pyramid
Draw 5 small pictures of producers on lowest level, then 4 primary consumers on the next, then 3 secondary consumers on next, then 2
tertiary consumers on the next , and 1 quaduary level consumer.
Put your month, birthdate (the day) and year (yyyy) backwards in bottom left corner express in organisms and follow the ten percent rule of
biomass moving up the trophic levels
ex: you were born (January 14, 1995) your number would be 5,991,411 Organisms
Biomass Pyramid
Put all the definitions in the levels, must write small enough to get all of the following in the area.
Producer
Final Level Consumer
Carnivore
Primary Consumer
Autotroph
Detrivore
Secondary Consumer
Heterotroph
Scavenger
Tertiary Consumer
Herbivore
Decomposer
Quaduary Consumer
Omnivore
Put your month, birthdate (the day) and year (yyyy) in bottom left corner express in kilograms and follow the ten percent rule of biomass
moving up the trophic levels
ex: you were born (January 14, 1995) your number would be 1,141,995 Kg

Ecological Pyramids
Energy pyramid- represents the amount of
energy that moves up a trophic level
Numbers pyramid- represents the total
amount of organisms in a trophic level
Biomass pyramid- represents the total dry
weight of the organisms in each trophic level
10% MOVES UP EACH LEVEL
