Answer:

The tiger is not on the same level and nor receives the same amount of energy in both chains.

Explanation:

As you may already know, a food chain is divided into trophic levels which are: producers, consumers (primary, secondary, tertiary, ...) and decomposers.

The plants are the producers. They absorb solar energy to build nutritious organic molecules that provide a lot of energy. Primary consumers eat these plants and receive all the energy available from them. Secondary consumers eat primary consumers, but receive less energy since the primary consumer used part of the energy they had. Tertiary consumers, in turn, receive even less energy and so on.

In the two food chains, shown in the question above, we can see that the tiger is not on the same level. In the first food chain, the tiger is a tertiary consumer and received a lower level of energy compared to the second food chain, where the tiger is a secondary consumer.

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Allele G represents the strong jaw, and allele g represents the weak jaw. This is because as the generations go by, allele G’s population increases, but allele g’s population decreases. If hard shelled animals are the only foods available to them, you would need a strong jaw to eat them. This means that allele g wouldn’t be able to eat these reptiles, so their population would decrease from lack of food.

tangare [24]

Epigenetic theory  states that the tissues and the form of an organism arise in an organized and sequential manner from the undifferentiated cells of the fertilized egg.

Many environmental factors tag the certain genes in the fertilized egg that may either suppress or activate them. These tags may certainly impact the genetic inheritance being passed to the offspring.

Hence, the given blank can be filled with' impact the genetic inheritance being passed to the offspring'.
