Think of an animal that eats other animals.Why would soil be important to this animal

Biology
1 answer:
miskamm [114]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Food chain is the process or method that connects plants and animals to the ecosystem. In this process, herbivorous animals feed on plant for their nutrition and the carnivorous animals feed on the herbivores as their source of food.

Soil plays a key role in this process as it contains many molecules like phosphorous, nitrogen etc. which is taken up by the plants through roots and hence consumed by the animals. This is how energy ascends from one trophic level to another although there is a decrease in each increasing trophic level.

Answer:

Only one of the three statement is true; and that is,

(ii.) Different metabolic end products result from the two types of fermentation

Explanation:

Fermentation is the process by which organic molecules such as glucose are broken down into smaller molecules to extract energy as ATP in the absence of oxygen.

Fermentation is carried out by many organisms including man.

In man, fermentation occurs in very active skeletal muscles such as in an athlete running. It involves the reduction of pyruvate produced from the glycolytic pathway to lactate in the muscles. The net yield of ATP from glucose breakdown to produce lactate is 2 ATP molecules.

In microorganisms such as yeast, the fermentation product of py ruvate derived from glycolysis is ethanol and carbon dioxide, CO₂. The net ATP yield in fermentation of glucose in yeast cells is also 2 ATP molecules.

From the options provided in the questions, the correct option is:

Only one of the three statement is true and that is that, ii. Different metabolic end products result from the two types of fermentation.

Based on the information in the table, which of the following changes is least likely to produce a phenotypic
yaroslaw [1]

GAU to GAC​ is least likely to change phenotype of an organism.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Phenotype of an organism is defined as the physical characteristics of an organism. This phenotype is dependent on the genotype of the organisms. This means the phenotypic characters are actually the expressions of the genes of the organisms. Now the genes are expressed in form of codons that are the three nitrogen base sequences. Each codon codes for a particular amino acid which in turn polymerises to from the protein which actually forms the phenotype of the organism.

Now there are 20 amino acids and 64 codons. Thus there are more than 1 codons for a single amino acid. So, if a codon is replaced by another codon which codes for same amino acid, then the phenotype is least likely to be affected.

Both the GAU and  GAC​ codes for aspartic acid. So the phenotype won't be affected much by this mutation

According to modern classification I will say that Jake is correct. With the use of tracing back and DNA technology then we can say that this is the digital way which is used nowadays to classify animals.

What is an example of a stimulus and a response that humans exhibit? Can a similar behavior be seen in any other organisms?
Sedaia [141]
Common examples of this would be if you place your hand in extremely warm or cold water, and an immediate response of pulling out of the water or any fluid, is an example of this extreme response, other responses are what is done in everyday, like being thirsty or hungry etc.

These behaviours are shared by all organisms even the most simple ones.
