Why is it necessary to have a constant input of energy into an ecosystem?

Biology

IrinaK [193]3 years ago

If there was not a constant Input of energy into the ecosystem then nothing would have the power to do anything and nothing would be alive. the energy starts with the sun, then goes to plants, then animals that eat the plants, and then the animals that eat those animals, Ect. if this chain reaction did not happen then the plants wouldn't have to power to go through photosynthesis and then we would get no energy. the amount of energy lessen with every chain that it goes through, this is why we get more energy eating plants and why they are healthier.

The energy an organism requires to transport materials and eliminate wastes is obtained directly from
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

ATP

Explanation:

ATP is regarded as 'root of energetics' for living organisms. So, the organisms utilizes ATP to transport material and eliminate wastes from the body. Not only these functions are carried out by ATP but also several others infact all energy requiring processes are carried out ATP. e.g. muscle movements, neurotransmission, heart beats and various chemical reactions in the body all are carried out with the help of ATP.

In animals ATP is produced from the breakdown of glucose in the cellular respiration, glucose is obtained from the diet we take in. In plants ATP is generated from the process of photosynthesis. The source of energy within ATP is phosphate bonds, the breakdown of one phosphate bond while conversion of ATP into ADP produces or releases 30.6 KJ/mole of energy.

Which point in this graph shows the beginning of a period of exponential
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

C. Point B

Explanation:  

The exposed curve represents a logistic growth model. Population growth depends on density. Natality and mortality depend on the population size, meaning that there is no independence between population growth and population density.

When a population grows in a limited space, density rises gradually and eventually affects the multiplication rate. The population per capita growth rate decreases as population size increases. The population reaches a maximum point delimited by available resources, such as food or space. This point is known as the carrying capacity, K.

K is a constant that equals population size at the equilibrium point, in which the natality and the mortality rate get qual to each other.

Referring to population size as N, when

  • N<K, the population can still grow.
  • N approximates to K, the population´s growth speed decreases.
  • N=K the population reaches equilibrium,
  • N>K, the population must decrease in size because there are not enough resources to maintain that size.  

The sigmoid curve represents the logistic growth model.

  • Point A: During this period, the population size is relatively stable. Little growth is expressed.
  • Point B: At the beginning of this period, population growth increases softly. The more individuals are in the population, the more that reaches sexual maturity and get to reproduce, leaving fertile offspring. This fertile offspring also get to reproduce and leave more fertile individuals. At the end of the period, the curve shows a sharp slope, reflecting the significant increase in the population reproductive rate.  
  • Point C: At the beginning of this period, the population keeps on growing exponentially. But at the end of the period, the curve tends to stabilize, meaning that the population stops growing in size so fast. The population slow and gradually reaches the equilibrium point, K.
  • Point D: The population got to stabilize.
