When you think you have ALL of the interactions for the duck, go on to the fish and do the same within the chart.

Reflect & Synthesize:
Answer the following questions in your blog post. Remember to have at least one follow-up sentence for each question, when possible.
Answer the following questions in your blog post. Remember to have at least one follow-up sentence for each question, when possible.
- What do living things get from their ecosystems?
- What evidence do you have to support your answer to Question 1?
- What does the term ecosystem mean, based on your experience in this lesson? (Don't use the definition from the BIG IDEA here. Put it into your own words.)
- Brainstorm at least one question you have about Ecosystems that you hope you learn from this unit.
- Look at the image below that shows a portion of a forest ecosystem. Name at least five components (living or non-living things) of the ecosystem that you can either observe directly or infer.
- What are three (or more) interactions that might occur in this portion of the forest ecosystem?
- They get their food and energy.
- Mr. Solarz said so and I also researched and 4 websites said that.
- It means the enviorment that living things live in.
- Why is it called an ecosystem?
- I can infer that they live in the woods. They live in a lake, they are living things, they eat fish, and they like water.
- The deer would eat berries and the berries are from the sun and get their energy from the sun.
I see ducks, trees, plants, bushes and fish. In the Great Lakes, producers can be microscopic phytoplankton (plant plankton),algae, aquatic plants like Elodea, or plants like cattails that emerge from the water's surface. Herbivores, such as ducks, small fish and many species of zooplankton (animal plankton) eat plants. (http://www.miseagrant.umich.edu/lessons/lessons/by-broad-concept/life-science/food-chains-and-webs/
