consumers, producers and decomposers have different roles and interactions within a habitat; food chains can be used to represent feeding relationships

- observing living things in a local habitat and categorising them as producers, consumers or decomposers
- researching the different types of decomposers and the importance of these within a habitat
- representing feeding relationships of producers and consumers as a food chain and comparing food chains across different habitats
- investigating the impact of introduced predators such as foxes on small mammal species in Australia
- researching how the removal of a food source from within a habitat, such as through an insect or rodent infestation, affects other living things within that habitat
