Living organisms release energy gradually. why?
MArishka [77]

Answer:Living organisms release energy gradually to prevent most of the energy from heat loss. The cells release the chemical energy present in food and it should be utilized gradually to prevent the energy loss in the form of heat and light.Most of the energy released by the body is through cellular respiration.The energy is produced by the continuous process that occurs in the body ,breakdown of food and energy production.If a huge amount of energy will be released from the body it will only be in the form of heat loss so to prevent the energy from lost in the form of heat living organism release energy gradually

What TWO factors do scientists track and monitor in all types of freshwater ecosystem?
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

A: light availability

B: nutrients

Explanation:

Both nutrients and light availability affect the primary productivity of the freshwater ecosystem, therefore, scientists study both factors to track associated changes. This is because photosynthesis is driven by sunlight and nutrients availability. It is suggested that the abundance of autotrophs (e.g. phytoplanktons) in an aquatic ecosystem increases as light and nutrients availability increase. Thus, there will be more food available for secondary and tertiary consumers to feed upon. Resultantly, the aquatic environment will turn a biodiversity hotspot where many species of living organisms start dwelling. Thus, scientists mainly ecologists would focus on these two parameters at first that lead to consideration of other parameters.
