Standard: Show Content Tip
2b Students know producers and consumers (herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, and decomposers) are related in food chains and food webs and may compete with each other for resources in an ecosystem.


Holistic Rating: Limited coverage of this standard.
Pages 54-58 and 213 provide limited coverage of this standard.


Aspects that do not help student learning:
Illustrations on page 56 and 213 show the decomposers only at the dead carnivore end of a food chain. Decomposers actually function at all levels of food chains and food webs (see CONTENT TIP).

There is limited or no coverage of competition for resources.
