To calculate the energy offered from food, multiply the number of grams of protein, carbohydrate, and fat by 4, 4, and 9, respectively.
Then add the results together.
Given: 500 grams of carbohydrates, 30 grams of protein, and 75 grams of fat in one day.
500 grams x 4 kcal/g = 2000 kcal
30 grams x 4 kcal/g = 120 kcal
75 grams x 9 kcal/g = 675 kcal
= 2795 kcal
From this data, you can calculate the percentage of k calories each of the energy nutrients give to the total.
Solution:
2000/2795 * 100% = 72% from carbohydrates
120/2795 * 100% = 4% from protein
675/2795 * 100% = 24% from fat
Total: 100%
Answer:
Release carbon into the atmosphere through respiration
Explanation:
During cellular respiration the molecule takes in oxygen and glucose. ... Pyruvate is transported into the mitochondria and loses carbon dioxide to form a two-carbon molecule.
Answer:
The organisms that eat the primary consumers are called secondary consumers. Secondary consumers are generally meat-eaters—carnivores. The organisms that eat the secondary consumers are called tertiary consumers. These are carnivore-eating carnivores, like eagles or big fish.
Explanation:
Answer:
The characteristic features of the phylum Chordata are a notochord, a dorsal hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, and a tailgut.

The correct answer is option D The population of foxes would probably decrease.
A food chain can be defined as a linear sequence of organisms through which the nutrients and energy flow as one organisms feeds on the other. Each level of the food chain is called the trophic level. They show organisms starting from the producers and end with consumers or sometimes with detrivores or decomposers. The producers which use solar energy and prepare their food occupy the first trophic level, followed by the primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary consumers occupying the next trophic level.
In the terrestrial food chain given above, grass → rabbit → fox, the decrease in the any population will effect the other organism at a different trophic level of the food chain. A sudden decrease in the population of rabbits will decrease the population of the foxes at the next trophic level as it is a secondary consumer feeding on the primary consumer which is the rabbit. So, a sudden decrease in the rabbit population will starve the foxes and thus decrease their number in the island.
