Answer:
The correct answer is - as energy lost at every trophic level.
Explanation:
In any ecological ecosystem the energy pyramids always upright unlike other pyramids such as biomass showing the number of organisms, that can be diamond shape, inverted or upright.
The main reason behind this is due to the fact that it is only a pyramid in the ecosystem that always unidirectional in the food chain which is always some energy lost with an increase in the trophic level in the food chain. This loss of energy always gets back to the atmosphere in each step of the food chain.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
this is because these photosynthetic protists have chlororphyll which is capable to make their own food materials through photosynthesis
The molecule is formed from glucose, which fits together nicely and becomes sturdy. It relates to the function of the cellulose model because it aids in strength and structural support.
Answer:
Wind pollinated have light and small pollen grains to be easily carried away. They also lack petals or have small ones, so that the pollen can be exposed and easily swept by wind.
Answer:
It will remain a part of the environment
Explanation:
Energy cannot be destroyed but can change from one sate to another. Usually in a food chain animals eaten and the energy is passed from one animal to the next. In the case of larger animals the energy is only made available is they pass away or lose an appendage such as a tooth or antlers, that other animals can feed on.
If a shark is not preyed on and remains in the ecosystem, it's energy will not be cycled but this animal will get larger and larger.
Should a shark pass away and nothing feeds on it there are two things that will happen:
- Energy will be stored and the animal will eventually become volatile or slowly disintegrate and the energy will be released from the atoms and molecules when the bonds are eventually broken by chemical reactions brought on by the environment (sun. wind, currents, etc).
- The animal will eventually solidify and may turn into stone. The energy will be locked into the animal and will be encased and become a part of the substrate
It is not likely that a shark will keep it's energy and not be eaten by other animals after death but on the chance that it does it may slowly disintegrate or become solidified.
