1) The answer is 56,000 Cal. Energy from the sun is taken by photoautotrophs (green plants) through the process of photosynthesis. Some of this energy is then taken by consumers when they feed on plants, with only 10% of the energy taken by the primary consumers, then when the secondary consumers feed on the primary consumers they also take 10% of the energy, and the process continues. The rest of energy is lost inform of heat energy. Therefore; the energy recieved by ocelot (tertiary consumers) is 10% of the energy from the macaw (secondary consumer). hence
(5600/10)×100= 56000 Cal

2) The answer is Less than 5600 Cal
When the number of Macaw (secondary consumers) decreases the number of tertiary consumers also decreases since they depend on the secondary consumers for energy. Thus the energy obtained from the remaining macaw will be lower.

Which of the following is least likely to have difficulties with economic access to potable water?

prisoha [69]

Australia is the least likely of the countries listed to have problems gaining access to potable water. They are a more developed country with more money and therefore more access to resources and basic necessities. Sadly, the other countries listed are not as developed.

In order for a polar compound to enter into the hydrophobic space of the phospholipid tails, it would need to break the many ___

Georgia [21]

Answer:

In order for a polar compound to enter into the hydrophobic space of the phospholipid tails, it would need to break the many polar covalent bonds bonds it has formed with the water and enter into a space where these bonds cannot form. Therefore, it is not a repelling action but a "lack of attraction".

Explanation:

Water as polar solvent and the phospholipids:

Water is very different on the molecular and that is due to the more polar nature, which is caused by the hydrogen bonding with in a H₂0 molecule. As the water molecules forms bonds with the other molecules in a specific formation of unequal polarities on its molecules. As the molecules have an unequal amount of charges present on it. For, the phospholipids they have two hydrophobic tails and the hydrophilic head. Through which they form most of the cell membrane structures.

In order to add any polar molecule to the hydrophilic head of the phospholipid there are many covalent bonds which are required to be broken, as these bonds include the covalent bonds found inside the molecular level. While, the hydrophobic tails of the molecules can't arrange themselves to form the bonds with the polar molecules more frequently.
