1.) The first very important thing I learned, was that animals can be the predators and the prey. Say for example, the snake kills the mouse. The Hawk will eat the snake. Therefore in this case, the snake is the prey and the predator.
2.) Another important thing I learned, was that everything uses energy. But the key to that, is that they use energy growing. Therefore when the predator goes to get the prey, they won't get all of the energy the producer got from the sun because they used some of the energy growing.
3.) I also learned that decomposers are very important to the food chain. Without them, there would be dead bodies all over the ecosystem. They help to clean it up and make sure it doesn't get really unhealthy.
4.) I learned that there is basically a set order for a chain. Like how the carnivore always goes after herbivore and producer.
5.) Lastly, I learned the difference between scavengers and predators. Scavengers take care of things that are already dead, most of the time things that predators killed. Scavengers just take the nutrients that predators didn't.
