Before assessing the two given cases, an assumption needs to be made about the digestion of the two types of food items, corn and beef. Let us assume that both get digested by expending same amount of energy by the human body. Let the amount of energy at producer level be an arbitrary X.
Case 1: Corn to human:
Since corn is at the producer level, it will have X amount of energy. The transfer of energy from corn to human will take place with a loss of 90% energy at the producer level. Hence the humans will receive 10% of X amount of energy.
Case 2: Corn to cow to human:
Since corn has X amount of energy, only 10% will pass to the next level, i.e. cow. So cow has 10% of X. Cow transfers only 10% of the energy that it has. Hence humans receive only 10% of 10% of X amount of energy.
It can be seen that humans receive more energy in case 1 than case 2. Hence we can say that it is more efficient for humans to feed on corn.

Answer:
<u><em>BRIEF EXPLANATION</em></u>
Photosynthesis is the anabolic process of building up glucose and making O2 from CO2 and water while cellular respiration is the opposite catabolic process of breaking down glucose by oxidizing it with O2 to get CO2 and water.
Explanation:
<em><u>MAIN ANSWER TO THE QUESTION.</u></em>
Photosynthesis is like when you’re trying to gain muscle and you eat tuna and eggs to turn it into muscle tissue. This takes energy in the form of food just like how photosynthesis requires sunlight for energy.
Cellular respiration is like when impoverished people starve for a week because they don’t have sufficient food to eat for nutrients. They have to get them from somewhere else. So the body breaks down glycogen, body fat and muscle tissue to provide the energy.
Answer:
The answer is A
Explanation:
You can tell that rocks are older or younger depending on if other layers overlap. B is the oldest because all the others cover it, C is the second youngest because D and A overlap it. From what I could tell, when I took the test, it was either A or D, neither overlap each other so I was not sure so I guessed A and got it right. Though it could be looked at that A is smaller than D since its still growing and building.
Answer:
cell walls and chlorophyll
Explanation:
they are the key difference between the two types of cells .plant cells have chlorophyll and cell walls while animal cells only have a cell membrane
