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.

What components of the eukaryotic cell were visible in the onion root tip? Which components were not? Why do you think some comp
ruslelena [56]

Looking at the onion root tip under the microscope you can see large, rectangular cells with visible distinct cell walls surrounding it (cells have a more regular shape because of the wall). Inside the cells, you can notice darkly stained nucleus, large vacuoles at the center and sometimes small granules within the cytoplasm. Looking the onion root tip under the microscope is often the way to observe mitosis. Usually, you cannot see organelles such as mitochondria, ribosomes, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, centrioles and Golgi body as they appear translucent and because are too small to be seen under the light microscope (electron microscope required). Also, chloroplasts are not present in an onion cell because it is not a photosynthetic cell.

Answer:

The man's father genetics for aniridia is XAY because one copy of the altered gene in each cell is sufficient to cause this disorder.

Explanation:

The aniridia allele in females has to be in the XAXA or XAXa form to be expressed but in males, can be expressed when genotype is XAY.

Migraine headaches allele in females has to be in the XMXM or XMXm form to be expressed but in males, can be expressed when genotype is XMY.

A man with normal vision and without migraines (XaY/XmY) had a father who had aniridia (XAY).

The man's father genetics for aniridia is XAY because one copy of the altered gene in each cell is sufficient to cause this disorder.
