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.

kkurt [141]

Answer:

The type of protein that binds a ligand on the cell surface or within cells are transmembrane receptors. These proteins have 3 domains: an extracellular part that does the binding, a hydrophobic domain that extends through the membrane, and an intracellular region that transmits the signal. The most common membrane-anchored receptors are: G protein-coupled receptors, receptor tyrosine kinases, and ligand-gated ion channels.

<h2>Diffuse co-evolution </h2>

Explanation:

The term ‘diffuse co-evolution’ was given by Janzen in 1980 to describe the idea that selection on traits often reflects the actions of many community members, as opposed to pairwise interactions between species

The idea was further clarified by Gould in 1988 by focusing on a variety of ecological and genetic mechanisms that might lead to diffuse co-evolution in response to selection from multiple species

Diffuse co-evolution as a whole can be defined as when selection imposed reciprocally by one species on another is dependent on the presence or absence of other species

In the given example panic grass can live only when the fungus protuberata is present and for Curvularia protuberata to colonize Curvularia thermal tolerance virus must be present so there is a web of multiple species where one species is dependent on other species and that other species in turn is dependent on different species hence referred to as diffuse co-evolution

What 2 things are produced by neutralization
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

neutralisation is the process of converting an acid or a base into the pH value 7.The 2 things produced r hydrogen gas and a salt.

acid+base=salt+hydrogen gas.This often occured in your stomach. when you have gastroble you are eating tablets which are base and a reation take place with hydrocloric acid in it
