Answer:

Food Webs and Food Chains are similar in the fact that they both show what animals eat, decomposer and other environmental food factors (if that makes sense).

Food Webs though are more complicated than Food Chains.

Food Webs show how many animals eat one thing, while Food Chains show how one thing gives something energy, and then what eats that thing.

For example:

FIsh A gets eaten by Fish B and then Fish B gets eaten by a Shark

A Food Web though, shows how many animals eat Fish A and then how many eat Fish B

For example:

Fish A gets eaten by Fish B, Fish C, Fish D, Humans and Whales

Fish B gets eaten by Humans, Whales, and Sharks

And so on and so forth

I hope this helps!

Answer:

Food chains differ from food webs in that they are showing a single line of feeding relationships. Food webs actually consist of many food chains together. A food chain is a linear display of energy movement and consumption. On the other hand, a food web shows interrelated relationships and multiple food chains in one.

<span>Basically both operate by bouncing tiny particles or waves off of objects in order to make them visible. Electrons are smaller than light photons so we can see smaller objects clearly with electron microscopes. There are disadvantages though. First, color is a function of light wave frequency so we can't see electron micrographs in color. Color can be added artificially though by computer to differentiate structures, (think photoshop). Also, we cannot see electrons so we make them visible by bouncing them off a cathode ray screen similar to a TV set or computer monitor</span>

Answer:

Afferent arteriole

Explanation:

A glomerulus is formed from the afferent blood vessels, a branch from the renal artery. The afferent arteriole collects blood from the glomerulus and extends to the renal tubule where it divides into capillaries that ramify the tubule. The afferent arteriole is wider than the efferent arteriole.
