It's an important part of the bird's ability to maintain its body temperature.
Air is a poor conductor of heat, so the air trapped among the feathers
prevents the loss of heat in cold atmosphere, and prevents overheating
in hot atmosphere. Much like our wearing several layers of clothing.
Answer:
There is no data to show but there would definitely be a decrease in the population of the other organisms in lower trophic level (sea otter).
Explanation:
This question involves an aquatic food chain involving organisms like clams, sea stars, sea otters, and sharks. In this question, the shark appears to occupy the highest trophic level i.e. tertiary consumer. Ideally, as the food chain progresses from the lowest to highest trophic level, the population of each organism decreases.
However, an increase in the population of sharks will mean more mouths to feed on other consumers. Hence, causing a decrease in the population of other organisms in lower trophic level especially the organism that occupies the secondary consumer trophic level.
False. Resolution is how highly the magnification is set to.
Answer:
<em>X Free nitrogen is in the atmosphere
</em>
<em>Y Producers absorb nitrogen compounds through their roots.</em>
Explanation:
Nitrogen is present in the soil. The plants take up nitrogen along with other minerals as they draw water from the soil. Nitrogen enters the soil when decomposers feed on dead and decaying matter. They breakdown nitrogen and release it into the soil. The plants take this nitrogen from the soil.
The area labelled X shows that nitrogen is present in the air. Nitrogen is one of the abundant gases which is found in the Earth's atmosphere.
