Why are decomposers and detritivores essential parts of all food webs?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer: Detritivores improve the nutritional value and the texture of the soil: This makes the soil productive to plant life which translates to availability of food for the herbivores and carnivores like human beings. They however do not complete the energy cycle as their wastes are energy products that need to be decayed.

Decomposers help in converting the leftovers of animals and plants to useful substances for other living organisms. They are mainly bacteria and fungi. Have you ever wondered what would happen if the decomposers and consumers were not in the ecosystem?

Detritivores play a very important in the cycle as they are the consumers of dead leaves, old skin, carcasses and manure. They include millipedes, earthworms and slugs that feed on dead plants and animals but leave some parts and their feces that are converted to energy by the decomposers. Players in the energy cycle function hand in hand, a decomposer is found at the lowest part of the cycle as it deals with the remains. They complete the energy cycle. The roles of the decomposers and detritivores almost coincide.

Hope this helps !!! Good luck !!! ;)

Question 9 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)
Vilka [71]

The two organisms that are most closely related according to Linnaean taxonomy are <em>Felis catus</em> and <em>Panthera pardalis</em>, because they belong to the same family

<h3>What is taxonomic classification?</h3>

Linnaean system of classification consists of a hierarchy of groupings called taxon. Each taxon is arranged in a hierarchical order.

The hierarchical arrangement of the taxon are as follows:

  1. Kingdom
  2. Phylum/Division
  3. Class
  4. Order
  5. Family
  6. Genus
  7. Species

These taxa are arranged from the most inclusive to the most exclusive i.e. members of the same species are the most closely related in that order.

This suggests that <em>Felis catus</em> and <em>Panthera pardalis</em> are the most closely related because they belong to the same family.

Absorbe nutrientes por medio de micro vellosidades que recubren y aumentan la superficie de absorción
Likurg_2 [28]

Sobre la pregunta:

Cucigrama. Pregunta 1 vertical. Absorbe nutrientes por medio de micro vellosidades que recubren y aumentan la superficie de absorción

Answer:

Intestino delgado

Explanation:

El intestino delgado es el organi mas largo del tubo digestivo, pudiendo medir 7 metros de longitud y 3 cm de diametro. Se caracteriza por estar sumamente plegado sobre si mismo. La primera porcion, llamada duodeno, recibe secresiones de glándulas biliar y pancreática, y las mezcla con enzimas digestivas. Esta mezcla se encarga de degradar la comida y transformarla en sustancias solubles, como amino ácidos.

Es en el intestino delgado donde ocurre la absorción de nutrientes.  Las paredes intestinales estas cubiertas por microvellosidades que aumentan la superficie de absorción.  

Las microvellosidades son células que componene el epitelio columnar, y que extienden proyecciones hacia el lumen del organo.
