Answer:

C. Ringed seal

Explanation:

A marine food web illustrates how energy is passed from one organism (level) to another in this aquatic rich ecosystem.

In the following food web, the interaction goes like this:

  1. The Arctic cod feeds on plankton and silverslides and it is preyed upon beluga whales and ringed seals.
  2. The sea duck goes to the bottom of the ocean to feed on benthic organisms and also consumes plankton and silverslides. It doesn't really have predators.
  3. The beluga whale doesn't really have predators, but it feeds on fish such as silverslades and Arctic cod.
  4. Ringed seals feed on plankton and Arctic cod and are then consumed by polar bears.

Therefore, according to this information, all organisms except the ringed seal feed directly on silverslides.

11. Countercurrent exchange in the legs of geese
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Reduces heat lost to the water

Explanation:

In some birds such as the geese, to reduce the amount of energy cost when regulation their temperature, some morphological and behavioural has been used to maintain the rate of heat gain and loss. For uninsulated parts of the birds's body such as the legs, there is the presence to countercurrent head exchange between wherein the arteries and veins in the legs lie in close contact with each other in other to retain heat as these uninstalled regions are potential areas of heat loss since they are uninsulated unlike insulated parts (parts covered with feathers). Constriction of the arteries and veins will ensure blood flow to the feet of the geese at a low temperature.

As described in "A Note About Bacterial Reproduction -- and the "Culture Bias,"" the organism Epulopiscium does not divide by bi
gayaneshka [121]

In liquid media or broth difference between dry and wet will give biomass of the Epulopiscium.

Explanation:

Biomass of bacteria can be measured by dry or wet mass. Bacteria numbers can be counted by spread plate method under the microscope.

In solid media the colonies obtained are diluted and number of cells will be seen by plate count method or on automated cell counter. The number would help calculate biomass

The biomass will be calculated by measuring wet and dry mass. Equipments required will be:

hydraulic gravity convection oven and centrifugation set up.

A cellulose acetate filter membrane is used which is 47 mm in diameter and 0.45 micron of pore size.

The cells  grown settles down due to gravity. They are stirred to evenly spread in the broth and is kept in centrifuge.

The cells obtained after centrifugation will be taken and wet weight is obtained.

To obtain dry weight the cells are placed in oven for 6 hours to 24 hours. The resultant cells are weighed and dry weight obtained.

Biomass will be calculated by subtracting the wet mass to dry mass. This way biomass is obtained in epulopisicuium. Here the cells will be of different size so on centrifugation 2 or more phases of cells can be seen due to gravity change.
