7. The energy lost between trophic levels

Biology
1 answer:

7 0

The energy lost between trophic levels is used in the course of normal living.

As an organism of one tropic level consumes an organism of the tropic level below it, only about 10% of the net productivity of one level ends up as net productivity at the next level. Thus, Energy transfer between trophic levels is inefficient.

Most of the stored energy is used by organisms for daily metabolic activities such as the formation of new cells, respiration, movement and temperature regulation, where most of the energy is lost in the form of heat.

Energy is lost as heat when the organisms from one trophic level are eaten by organisms from the next level.

Eg. When a Hawk eats a snake some energy is lost.

Pretty easy question (s) but I am not good at explaining things so I need help
luda_lava [24]

I'm guessing the rocket scenario is the first one and the asteroid one is the last. That being said...

1) The fuel in the rocket provides it with the energy it needs to propel itself into space. The rocket throttles at the bottom, allow it to break free from the earth's gravity by pushing against the earth's greater mass.

2) If you are inside of the bus, in a fixed spot not moving, and the bus is moving. That means you are moving in the same direction as the bus. If it stops, you're still moving at the speed that it was once originally moving at. Obviously, since you weigh less than the bus you are going to fly forwards.

3) There is no gravity or friction in space, so items won't slow down no matter what. Even if an object such as a meteor is flung into space with the tiniest bit of force it will keep flying through space at a consistent speed, since there's nothing to slow it down... unless it hits something else.

4) Looking back at the previous answer, the asteroid is flying through space at a consistent speed (which is really fast). Suddenly it comes in close range to the moon which is bigger in size, and thus has a stronger gravitational pull, and pulls the asteroid into it's field.

3. How are chloroplast like solar panels
vichka [17]

Answer:

Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells. It is like a solar panel that changes sunlight energy into electric energy. The entire process is called photosynthesis and it all depends on the little green chlorophyll molecules in each chloroplast.

Show how the alleles for tall plant height and short plant height are segregated from each other during gamete formation
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

"T" X "t" yields offspring that are all heterozygous with genotype "Tt"

Explanation:

An Allele refers to either of a pair of contrasting genes.

So, "TT" being the same yeild just one allele (T), while "tt" also yield one allele (t)

So, the cross of the both alleles

"T" X "t"

yields offspring that are all heterozygous with genotype "Tt"

Thus, the crossing dominant tall plant height "TT" and recessive short plant height "tt" yielded heterozygous tall plants "Tt"
