Answer:

0.01%

Explanation:

According to the ten percent rule of energy transfer, whenever energy is transferred from one trophic level to a higher trophic level only 10% of total energy available at the lower level gets transferred to a higher one.

Therefore, when the energy is transferred along with the food chain:

grass → grasshopper → mouse → snake → hawk, from grass to hawk there is a loss of 10% of energy at each level.

<em>Therefore, the hawk only gets 0.01% of the energy from the grass.</em>

Answer:

The best answer is Grass. The grass is photosynthetic, which means grasses make their energy from the sun. About 10% of this total energy is available to other organisms in the food chain.

Llamas have sexual reproduction. Some types of llamas have 74 chromosomes. That is how many chromosomes are in their somatic (bo
Sholpan [36]

Answer: 37 chromosomes.

Explanation: As is typical of mammals, llamas are diploid organisms, meaning that the number of chromosomes in each of their somatic cells is exactly twice of that found in the gametes (the so-called haploid number, referred to as "n"). If a particular species has 74 chromosomes in its somatic cells, we should expect to find 74/2=37 chromosomes in each gamete.
