Why do producers make up the base of the energy pyramid

Biology

galina1969 [7]3 years ago
3 0

The base of the pyramid is composed of species called autotrophs, the primary producers of the ecosystem. All other organisms in the ecosystem are consumers called heterotrophs, which either directly or indirectly depend on the primary producers for food energy.

The benefit of measuring the initial rate of a reaction, V0, is that early in the course of the reaction, A) Km is the substrate
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Rate of product formation is linear and [S] has not been lowered significantly.

Explanation:

The rate of enzyme-catalyzed reactions is affected by several factors, the contraction of substrates [S] is one of them. The substrate concentration keeps on changing as the reaction proceeds. This is why the reaction rate is measured at the initial stages of reactions when the substrate concentration [S] is much greater than the concentration of the enzyme. It is called the initial rate or initial velocity.

Under the conditions of higher substrate concentration and relatively much lower enzyme concentrations, only a few molecules of substrates are being converted into product. At a relatively higher substrate concentration, the rate of product formation increases linearly.

Which do you think would adapt and survive overtime to a mass extinction? A starfish or an eel?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Starfish

Explanation:

This is an opinion questions, so there really isn't a right or wrong answer.  You could just as easily choose Eel.  Your task is to pick one and defend your reasoning.

I chose starfish because starfish have a long history of demonstrated adaptability to a wide variety of conditions.  Their armored skin protects them from a variety of predators, as does the poison that many of them contain.  They have the ability to regrow limbs, and even regrow entire starfish from certain body parts.  When it comes time to breed, starfish meet together in groups.  Each female releases a few million eggs from the gonads in each of her arms.  Each male then releases billions of sperm from each gonad in each of his arms, thus covering the eggs with sperm to fertilize them.

Nat2105 [25]
The cell membranes begin to come apart when there is insufficient water around the cells. The cytoplasm of the cells becomes more concentrated, which slowly poisons the cells. The cell walls become brittle as they dry out, and some of them collapse. The central vacuoles in the cells lose water and can no longer help support the cells.
