Energy Around Us Quiz

Which type of animal primarily consumes plants?

The predator in a food chain is the producer.

What term describes an animal that eats both plants and meat?

Energy is ___________ from one organism to another in a food chain.

Match the following terms with their definitions:

Which of the following is NOT a type of energy?

Energy can only move things, but it can't change them.

How do living things obtain energy?

The energy transfer begins with ________ energy from the sun to the corn plant.

The harder we kick a ball, the further it will move.

Match the energy types to their sources:

When a hand hits a drum, energy is transferred from the hand as __________ energy.

Which statement about energy transfers is correct?

Energy around us

Different types of energy exist including; food, heat, light, movement, sound
Energy cannot always be seen but can be observed through its effects
Energy can change things, not just move them
Living things get energy through consuming food
The harder an object is kicked, the further it will move

Energy transfers

Energy can be transferred multiple times
Energy transfer between things is called an energy chain.
Energy transfers differently into different types of materials
The sun's energy is transferred to a corn plant
The corn plant is then consumed by a cow
The cow then provides energy to a human
The human releases energy through movement
Ice can receive heat energy from a hand
This transfers energy from the hand to the ice

Energy changes

Hand energy is transferred to a drum to make sound vibrations
Vibration energy from the drum then turns into sound energy
Electrical energy can be changed into:
- Light energy
- Heat energy
- Movement energy
Energy cannot be destroyed or created
Energy is always around us

Energy and living things

A producer makes its own food
An herbivore is an animal that eats plants
A carnivore is an animal that eats meat
An omnivore is an animal that eats both plants and meat
A consumer eats other organisms for energy
The predator in a food chain is a consumer
A food chain shows direction of energy transfer
Food chains contain at least one producer and one consumer
Example food chains:
- Carrot (producer) -> rabbit (consumer) -> fox (predator)
- Grass (producer) -> cow (consumer) -> man (predator)

Explore the different types of energy and how they transfer through various processes in this engaging quiz. Learn about energy chains from sunlight to food consumption and the transformations of energy types. Test your understanding of energy's impact on living organisms and the environment.
