Answer:
They break down all types of biological polymers—proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids.
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer is "Tertiary consumers would have less food".
Explanation:
Animals in the tertiary trophic level are omnivores that eat animals that are in the secondary trophic level because they are carnivorous as well. An invasive top predator such as boa constrictors not necessary eat animals in the tertiary trophic level, however they affect them because they eat their food. Boa constrictors' diet include a wide variety of animals, including birds, mammals, and other reptiles
The correct answer is the second option. Animals have two major types: vertebrates and invertebrates. Vertebrates are animals that have backbone while the invertebrates do not have one. Examples for vertebrates are birds and mammals while the latter are insects and squid.
Photosynthetic organisms use sunlight to provide the energy necessary to combine carbon dioxide and water to form organic molecules and ATP. Those same photosynthetic organism also use cellular respiration to breakdown those organic molecules whenever there is an energy demand greater than what can be provided by photosynthesis or in the absence of light.
Answer: diversity of niches
, large area and warm climate
Explanation:
An ecosystem is a biotic community in which the living beings interact with their non-living physical environment. The following factors which are responsible for higher biodiversity in an ecosystem:
Diversity of niches: A niche can be define as the functional role an organism performs in an ecosystem so as to sustain it's life. For example the type of habitat, food and breeding season chosen by the organism. With the increase in the differences in the diversity of niches the organism exhibit variations and differences from the members of the same species or from the members of the other species.
Large area: The large area can support the reproduction and abundance of members which belongs to different species hence will help in promoting higher biodiversity in a region.
Warm climate: The warm climatic range will offer the chances of adaptations to the living organisms to sustain their lives in harsh environmental conditions. This will lead to evolution of new species from the parent species.
