Producer, Consumers, and Decomposers

hello I'm cbgyo65 and The topic that I will be talking about today is going to be producers, consumers, and decomposer's.Three interesting things I learned about this topic is that producers only get eaten they don't eat at all well actually they are able to make their own food with out going out to find it. But consumers have to go out and find there food like to eat plants (producers).Then decomposer's brake down all the consumer's and producers that are now dead to create nutrients and bring back producers .Two other interesting facts that I learned from another source is that another word for producers is autotroph an another word for consumer is heterotroph. I got those pieces of information from http://www.uic.edu/classes/bios/bios101/ecosys/sld009.htm.In my opinion I would think it would be better to be a autotroph because you wouldn't have to hunt or kill anything you have an advantage.

Ecosystem Class Response

The class response that I am doing is about the ecosystem.I learned new interesting facts about a ecosytem like how it is living and nonliving interacting ,basically anywhere could be a eycosystem , and how the living organisms and non living organism's use each other to survive.I also learned more information like how organism's use each other to survive, like how the animal's in the desert use the sand and dig whole's and sleep in there were it is cooler at night. Also how cactus can soak up water and save it.I've got this last two piece's of information from http://www.brainpop.com/science/ecologyandbehavior/ecosystems/. My opinion on this subject is that for different place's there are "in a way" different ecosytem.Like the desert human's would not be able to survive in there for long they dont have or do half of the stuff that the animal's do to survive in the desert , they would only really be able to survive in their own ecosytem.
