I. OBJECTIVES
The learners demonstrate an understanding of:
A. Content Standards
the one-way flow of energy and the cycling of materials in an ecosystem
The learners should be able to:
B. Performance Standards
make a poster comparing food choices based on the tropic levels
Describe the transfer of energy through the trophic levels;
C. Learning Specific objectives:
Competencies/ a) analyze the transfer of energy from one organism to another
Objectives b) construct an energy pyramid in a given ecosystem
Write the LC code for
each

(EXPLAIN)

Q1. Which group of organisms has the greatest biomass? Which has the
greatest energy?

Q2. Which group of organisms has the least biomass? Which has the least
energy?

Q3. What happens to the amount of biomass from the bottom to the top of
the pyramid?
Processing of outputs
Guide Questions:
1. What did you notice on the amount of energy transfer from the
bottom to the top of the pyramid? Is it decreasing or increasing?
2. How much percentage of biomass or energy is being transferred
from one trophic level to the next trophic level?

H. Finding practical (ELABORATE)
