It always bears repeating: if something is not eating your plants, then your garden is not part of the ecosystem.

This is an example of a trophic pyramid chart- basically another way of looking at a food web and how energy flows through the food web. This level shows our primary producers- Plants, Cyanobacteria, and Algae. These guys undergo photosynthesis to turn energy from the sun into sugars and oxygen that the rest of us living beings need for our own metabolic systems. As we go through the different levels on this pyramid, you’ll start to see why these primary producers are critical to our own survival 🌳🌿🌱💚

The monarch butterfly fluttered a step closer to extinction Thursday, as scientists put the iconic orange-and-black insect on the endangered list because of its fast dwindling numbers.

Plants are SO important! I think it’s safe to say that we all learned about photosynthesis in school- but have you ever stopped to really think about this amazing process? Plants are among the ONLY organisms that can take the energy from the sun and convert it into a useable form of energy (for the rest of us) through photosynthesis. These guys are the primary producers in our food webs- without them, there would be no source of energy for the herbivores, omnivores, and carnivores in the upper levels in our food webs…the ecosystem would literally collapse without these primary producers! 🌱💛 Graphic by Science Sparks.
