Food Chains - 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.

    Food chain
  2. an increase in the number of individuals of a species over what its ecosystem can sustain
    Overpopulation
  3. different populations that share an ecosystem
    Community
  4. all living and nonliving things & all their interactions in an area
    Ecosystem
  5. an action that occurs when 2 or more objects have effect on each other
    Interaction
  6. are the living elements in an environment. Ex: plants, animals, bacteria
    Biotic Factor
  7. objects that have biological processes to keep them alive. Ex: Plants & animals
    Living
  8. an organism that uses sunlight to make its own food for energy
    Producer
  9. an animal that eats other animals
    Predator
  10. is represented by arrows. The arrows point the direction that energy moves
    Flow of energy

  21. a single, self-contained, living thing
    Organism
  22. an organism that BREAKS down the remains of dead plants & animals

  23. process by which producer/plants use the energy in sunlight to create their own food
    Photosynthesis
  24. an interconnected set of food chains
    Food web
