Energy Flow - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

  1. Heterotroph –organism that gets its energy from the food it eats (another word for consumer)
  2. Prey – animal that is hunted or seized for food
  3. Compost – mixture of decaying substances full of nutrients, can be used as fertilizer
  4. Respiration – cells use food (like glucose) to release its energy to use for all life processes.
  5. Decomposers – they feed on wastes of plants and animals or their remains after they die, replenish soil with nutrients (also called detritivores)
  6. Herbivore - feeding on grass and other plants
  7. Trophic level – each level in a food chain or (energy pyramid). 10 % rule – is passed from one level to the next level
  8. Energy pyramid – a model that shows the amount of energy available at each step of the food chain
  9. Environment – all the living and non-living things that surround and affect a given organism
  10. Consumers – they consume (or eat) plants or other animals
  11. Ecosystem (BIOME)– all the living and non-living things that INTERACT in an environment and how they affect each other
  12. Organism – is a living thing such as plants, animals, trees, bacteria
  13. Biomass - total mass of all living matter in a given area
  14. Carnivore – eats flesh (animals)
  15. Food web – a diagram that combines many food chains, shows how many animals are interconnected by different paths
  16. Omnivore - eats both plant and animals
  17. Decay – to decompose or break down
  18. Predator – an organism that feeds on other organisms
  19. Producers – produce their own food (plants)
  20. Population – is all on of ONE kind of organism
  21. Community – all the LIVING things in an ecosystem
  22. Autotroph – organism that can make own food by using energy from the sun (producer) PLANTS
  23. Food chain - single path as animals eat each other. Shows the flow of energy
  24. Compost bin –a container holding various decaying organic substances
