Answer:
<em>The total amount of energy transferred during photosynthesis for this ecosystem equals</em><em> 260,000 kcal/m2/yr.</em>
Explanation:
To answer this question, we need to know that
- gross primary productivity (GPP) = energy captured and converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis
- net primary productivity (NPP) = difference between GPP and respiration rate
So, to calculate GPP we need to sum NPP to Respiration rate. This if,
NPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr
R = 95,000 kcal/m2/yr
NPP = GPP – Respiration
Then,
GPP = NPP + R
GPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr + 95,000 kcal/m2/yr
GPP = 260,000 kcal/m2/yr
The answer is <span>A. Meiosis: It increases genetic variation, which helps ensure the species will survive.
Meiosis increases genetic variation. This means there is a great variety of genotypes among the population. Hence, there are organisms able to survive in a wider range of temperature. If </span><span>there were drastic changes in temperature in an ecosystem, some of the organisms will survive because their genotype allows them to live in such conditions. If there were no variety thanks to meiosis, all of the organisms would die. And that is not beneficial to a species.
Imagine on the other hand that mitosis occurred. Mitosis does not provide a variety of genotypes and all of the organism will be the same. </span><span>If there were drastic changes in temperature in an ecosystem, all of the organisms would die because all of them could respond to the change in the same way.</span>
Answer:
Larger aerosol particles in the atmosphere interact with and absorb some of the radiation, causing the atmosphere to warm. The heat generated by this absorption is emitted as longwave infrared radiation, some of which radiates out into space.

Water is the body's most indispensable nutrient. Indispensable means the most essential, in this case, it's water.
Smog is an abiotic factor affecting a biotic factor(s).
This is because smog isn't a living organism so it is abiotic while humans are multicellular organisms so therefore, they are biotic factors.
Smog has a negative effect on many biotic factors.
