3. A food web is an interlocking system of independent food chains. The flow of energy is represented by an arrow. The arrow poi

nts in the direction in which the energy is being transferred. Example: Mouse → Snake (because the snake eats the mouse). Answer the following questions:
a. What do you notice about how plants get their energy?



b. Describe the direction of the arrows in the food web.



c. What would happen to the population of snakes and rabbits if hawks were removed from the ecosystem?

Answer:

  • Plants get their energy from the sun
  • The arrows continue up the food chain
  • The snakes would over-populate and kill off the rabbits

Answer:

Explanation:

a. plants get their energy through photosynthesis with the sun

b. Arrows in a food web start with the prey and go up to the top animals... example would be sun to grass to bunny to hawk to eagle. The web should be interlocking and not have any empty points, unlike a food chain

c. if hawks were removed from the food chain the rabbit and snake populations would increase rapidly. This is because the top predator was taken away. This happened in Yellowstone when people shot all the wolves and the elk populations grew out of control.

I hope this helps you!

Question 7(Multiple Choice Worth 4 points)
Maurinko [17]

Answer: The correct option is B (self-replicating molecules, such as RNA and DNA)

Explanation:

The current theory of the process of evolution makes use of present day knowledge of genes and chromosomes to explain the source of genetic variation upon which natural selection works. These genes are discrete units of inheritance which determine hereditary characteristics. All the information for the inheritable characteristics of an individual are contained in these genes.

When a cell divides, the genes duplicate themselves so that each daughter cell has an identical set of genes as the original parent cell. These genes are passed from parents to offspring in the gametes of the parents.

Gene are found in the DNA( Deoxyribonucleic acid) molecules or RNA (Ribonucleic acid) molecules. These molecules are capable of self replication due to a process called mutation. Mutations are random changes in DNA that alter genetic information and sin introduce new characteristics. They may occur

--> in body cells or

--> during gamete formation.

Thus, evolution from vesicles to true cells is through self replicating molecules through the process of mutation which is the raw material for evolution

In muscle cells, fermentation produces _____. In muscle cells, fermentation produces _____. carbon dioxide, ethanol, and NAD car
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

In muscle cell, fermetation produces <u>"lactate and NAD"</u>

<u>In fermentation Pyruvate is reduced and __NADH__ is oxidized.</u>

Explanation:

Muscle cells perform lactic acid fermentation when enough oxygen is not available to support aerobic cellular respiration. The process of glycolysis forms two molecules of pyruvate from one glucose molecule and uses NAD+ as electron acceptor. During lactic acid fermentation, pyruvate is reduced into lactate and NADH serves as an electron donor. The final products are lactate and NAD+. The reaction is catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase enzyme. The NAD+ produced by fermentation is required to continue the process of glycolysis.
