1 answer:

<span>10% rule (efficiency between trophic levels): limits how long an ecosystem's food chain can be
Predator/prey cost benefit analysis (i.e. foraging) -- cost is risk of being eaten or killed along the way, benefit is energy/nourishment obtained: limits distribution of predator v. prey
Immigration/Emigration with other populations and ecosystems
Island biogeography: size of land and distance from another population/ecosystem (mainland): limits population size and variability on island</span>

For energy, a plant breaks apart some of the small sugars it builds. What does the plant do with the rest of its small sugars?

balandron [24]

Answer:

The plant stores them as starch

Explanation:

A typical plant synthesizes sugars from photosynthesis by using water and carbon dioxide.

$6CO_2 + 6H_20 + energy --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2$

Parts of the sugar synthesized via photosynthesis is used to generate energy during respiration. The energy generated is useful for other metabolic processes in the plant's body.

$C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2 --> 6CO_2 + 6H_20 + energy$

<em>The remaining sugar is utilized in the synthesis of starch and stored in the various tissues of the plant.</em>
