7. The energy lost between trophic levels

Biology

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.

saw5 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is A    DNA  is replicated before mitosis begins

Explanation:

DNA replication is one of the most significant event of a cell cycle. .DNA replication occur in the S phase or synthesis phase of the cell cycle.

       DNA is replicated once per cycle to maintain to normal chromosome number in daughter cells.

     DNA is replicated to form two new DNA molecules which are then equally distributed in each daughter cell during the mitosis phase.

jonny [76]

Answer:

More than two complete sets of the chromosomes (polyploidy).

Explanation:

Assembly of spindle microtubules assist the chromosomes to arrange in the equator of the cell during metaphase. This is followed by the splitting of centromere and segregation of sister chromatids towards the opposite poles of the cell to ensure equal distribution of chromosomes among the daughter cells.

Any drug that prevents the assembly of the spindle apparatus would not allow the alignment of the chromosomes in the cell's equator. This would prevent the anaphasic segregation of daughter chromosomes to the opposite poles.  

Some of the resulting daughter cells are most likely to have more than two sets of chromosomes.
