Answer:

Decomposers recycle essential nutrients back into an ecosystem

Explanation:

An ecosystem works thanks to the constant transformation of energy. The role of the decomposers will be to transform energy into something useful in the ecosystem. For example, The bacteria which will rotten the apples that fall from a tree onto the ground are recycling or making available this energy for other organisms to use it. As part of this example, the essential nutrients of the apples will be available to be reabsorved by the roots of the apple tree thanks to the transformation of energy done by the bacteria in the apples.

Answer: • Decomposers recycle essential nutrients back into an ecosystem.

Explanation:

The decomposers are the small microorganisms which can be found in the soil habitat. These organisms obtain energy by break down of organic matter generated after the death of plants, animals and their residual matter. Through the process of decomposition the decomposers release nutrients such as nitrogen and carbon back to the environment. These nutrients are absorbed by the plants through soil. This way the nutrients are recycled in an ecosystem by decomposers.

What is the percentage of calories were absorbed by your system??? Helpppp
denpristay [2]
Calories in and of themselves aren't a reliable way of describing energy density in food. It doesn't reflect what actually happens in your body (look up bomb-calorimeter for how people figure out calorie content in foods). So based on this, the question is a bit of a non-sequitur. But if you disregard that and go with a regular answer, it really depends on what kind of calories you're ingesting because foods get digested in a function of different amounts of time. Carbohydrates will get digested and converted into glucose almost immediately - being very close to 100% energy efficiency. Fats are the slowest as your body needs to produce bile in order to digest it - not enough bile = undigested fat = unused calories. Proteins are turned into either amino acids (not an energy source per se) or converted into glucose like carbs but instead through gluconeogenesis which is a less efficient form of glucose conversion than carbohydrates (since your liver/kidneys need to produce the enzymes to convert it). The efficiency of protein is likely in the range of 50-60% calories. This is just the tip of the iceberg though - your metabolism also plays a part as to how much and when these calories are either used, stored, and excreted by your body. Ever got the meat sweats? That's your body burning excess energy through thermogenesis when you eat too much protein. So it really depends why you're asking because the answer will differ for each scenario.

Managing southeastern forests specifically for the red-cockaded woodpecker question 8 options:
denis-greek [22]
I believe the answer is included providing nesting cavities for breeding groups. This would increase the abundance and diversity of other bird species in the forest. Managing the forest would mean a lot more habitat for the birds to live in and procreate. This would result to an increase in birds.
