Answer: Matter and energy are conserved as they pass through a food web.

A food chain is the linear sequence of transfer of food and energy when one organism is fed or consumed by another organism in an ecosystem. A food web is an interconnection of food chains within an ecosystem. In food web, each food chain is dependent upon other food chain for it's food and energy requirements. A food chain comprises of trophic levels according to the type of consumers it exhibit like primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers , tertiary consumers and quaternary consumers. At each trophic level of the food chain matter and energy remain conserved in the form of biomass. This biomass is distributed as an outcome of the overall feeding process between the food chains. Therefore, matter and energy are conserved as they pass through a food web.

Like plants, human beings have similarities and differences. God gave us talents which He wants us to use. What can you do best?

asambeis [7]

Well, humans have talents. Whether those talents are god given is up for debate. I'd argue those talents are a result of millions of years of evolution and natural selection as proven by Charles Darwin, not given by an unproven deity, but I don't know what school year you are in so you may not have escaped the years where religion is forced upon you :P

Anyway, if you're being asked this question, what do you like doing? I'd say my talent lies in science, as I was the top performing physicist throughout my gcse years, and I love the subject. In my opinion what you do best is what you love doing most, as if you have a passion for something it will almost always be your best talent. I can't answer that question for you.

Sharing this talent to others is basically teaching and also spreading your passion for your talent to others. They probably won't ever be as good as you because they will have their own talents and passions, but you can give them an insight into it by teaching them what you know and encouraging them to invest some time into it.

How do scientists determine the depth of the ocean?

IgorC [24]

Explanation:

The most common and fastest way of measuring ocean depth uses sound. Ships using technology called sonar, which stands for sound navigation and ranging, can map the topography of the ocean floor. The device sends sound waves to the bottom of the ocean and measures how long it takes for an echo to return.
