    1) The food chain begins with the sun providing energy to producers like plants through photosynthesis. 2) Bees, as primary consumers, rely on the nectar and pollen from flowers for food. Frogs, as secondary consumers, eat insects and small vertebrates. Snakes, as tertiary consumers, prey on smaller carnivores. 3) Mushrooms are decomposers that break down dead and decaying matter to obtain nutrients and energy. Energy is lost at each transfer between trophic levels in the food chain.

    ROLE PLAY IN ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE

    ABOUT FOOD CHAIN

    Characters / Roles:
    ● National Geographic Host: Chezka Nicole S. Maliwat
    ● Kid Watching YouTube: Kiel Arthur G. Torres
    ● Sun: Jofroyson M. Santiago
    ● Producer (Flower): Kyrsten Elissha B. Salazar
    ● Primary Consumer (Bee): Rhian Danielle D.R. Bagtilay
    ● Secondary Consumer (Frog): John Cedrick C. Callanta
    ● Tertiary Consumer (Snake): Mikaella Jialee S. Santos
    ● Decomposer (Mushroom): Xijer Argus S. Carrido

    Scene 1
    Kiel: I’m so nervous! We will be having a quiz in environmental science tomorrow, but I
    cannot understand the topic about food chains. Maybe, I should watch some videos on
    YouTube.

    Scene 2
    Chezka: Hi, everyone! Welcome to a brand new episode of National Geographic. For
    today’s video, with the help of our lovable animals, we will talk about the food chain. The
    food chain is a model that shows how food energy passes from one organism to
    another in a feeding pathway. The food chain that we will be having as an example
    today, well for all of the food chains, starts with the sun.

    Jofroyson: [Sun rising] Hi, I’m the sun! Wake and grow up with me.

    Chezka: The sun helps the producers, such as the plants, grow more due to the energy
    it has provided with the process of photosynthesis.

    Kyrsten: [Flower rising, dancing] Hi, I’m a flower. Dance with me and the air.

    Chezka: The flower is the producer in this food chain, in which they produce their own
    food by having the help of the ever-trusty sun.

    Rhian: [Bee rising, making sounds] Hi, I’m a bee, but not Jollibee. Would you want
    some honey?
    Chezka: A producer needs its consumer, right? The primary producer in this food chain
    is the bee. This animal relies on the nectar and pollen produced by a flowering plant. In
    addition to that, the bee is considered to be a herbivore.

    Cedrick: [Frog jumping, making sounds] Hi, I’m a frog! Do you want to wander around
    with me?

    Chezka: A consumer is perhaps consumed by another consumer– a higher and bigger


    consumer to be exact. This animal eats on insects and other small vertebrates. In
    addition to that, the frog is considered to be an omnivore.

    Jialee: [Snake rising, making sounds] Hi, I’m a snake! Beware of my venom.

    Chezka: Of course, the last consumer should not be absent in this food chain. This
    animal eats on smaller carnivores as this animal is considered to be a carnivore.

    Xijer: [Mushroom growing] Hi, I’m a mushroom! Ready to be decomposed.

    Chezka: The last stage in this food chain is the decomposer. The decomposer breaks
    down dead and decaying matter to make its own food. In addition to this food chain, one
    must remember that as the energy flows from organism to organism, energy is lost at
    each step. That’s all for today’s video. I hope you learned something!

    Scene 3
    Kiel: Oh wow, so that’s how the food chain works! In the shortest definition possible, it is
    a single linear path of energy transfer through the trophic levels of an ecosystem. Thank
    you, National Geographic, I’m now ready to take my quiz tomorrow.
