The salinity of ocean water can be determined by measuring the conductivity of the water. The characteristics of water such as salinity, depth, temperature, density can be defined by the instrument called Conductivity Temperature Depth instrument. This instrument is placed in water which is to be measured. As this instrument is lowered into the water it continuously records the conductivity, temperature and depth of the water. The electric current is flowed through the water and as we know salt water is a good conductor of electricity it will pass the current fast. Using this technique oceanographers determine the salinity of water.

A grass starts with 30,000 MJ of energy. How much energy would a cheetah acquire after it ate a zebra that consumed the grass
Georgia [21]

In every trophic level, only 10% of energy is passed on.

Grass, with 30,000 kJ of energy, is eaten by a zebra.

Zebra then has 10% of 30,000 kJ from the grass, which is 3,000 kJ of energy.

Cheetah then eats the zebra, gaining only 10% of 3,000 kJ of energy of the zebra. Finally as conclusion, cheetah has 300 kJ of energy after having acquired the zebra.
