What changes is pH occur during digestion of our food ?
mezya [45]

Which best describes the role of a primary consumer in a food web?
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Herbivore that feeds on producers

Explanation:

The producers are plants at the bottom of the food web. These are eaten by herbivores, that are the primary consumers.

Sometimes, these carnivores can be consumed by top predators, like a shark, snake or eagle.

<u>Options and why they are right/wrong</u>

Carnivore that feeds on producers  - carnivores do not feed on producers

Herbivore that feeds on producers  - this is correct

Herbivore that feeds on primary consumers  - primary consumers are animals and herbivores do not eat animals

Carnivore that feeds on primary consumers - this would be a secondary consumer

The description of a cell energy process is listed below.
Bumek [7]

Answer:

The electron transport chain

Explanation:

During the citric cycle in the matrix of the mitochondria, the NAD+ and FAD+ the metabolic cycle are reduced to NADH and FADH₂ through accepting electrons. The energy harnessed from the metabolic cycle is used to develop a proton motive force across the mitochondrion intermembrane. This potential energy is harnesses by ATP synthase to create ATPs. As the H+ ions drain back into the matrix of the mitochondria, they are used to reduce oxygen to water. In this redox reaction, the FADH₂ and NADH donate their electrons  and are recycled back to the citric cycle in their oxidized form.
