Answer:

True

Explanation:

Producers are very important for an ecosystem as they trap the solar energy received from sun through the process of photosynthesis in order to produce food for consumers. This food when consumed by other organisms leads to flow of energy from one organism to other which lie at different trophic levels of a food chain.

Producers lie at the base of an energy pyramid and thus are the initiators of the food chains.

If there would have been no producers, there would have been no food cycle/chains and thus no flow of energy and and hence no stable ecosystem.

Being extremely important for the ecosystem , producers are living being such as trees, plants, algae etc. and thus they are the most important biotic factor in an ecosystem

Vaselesa [24]

Well, this is called echolocation. It is possible because the animals make noise, and it bounces off objects and plants. Their brain takes the sound waves that bounce off objects and register it into their brain at another way of seeing. They can see up to 200 miles away with this, and other animals can hear these noises from far away. I hope this answer cam to your desired help.

Answer:

The answer (Image 1) is attached. Since the options weren't provided, I've attached the image of the options, too.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is composed of phospholipids, a special form of lipids with a hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail. According to the fluid mosaic model, the hydrophilic heads are positioned towards the outside where they freely interact with the extracellular matrix and cytosol. Whereas, the hydrophobic tails are positioned towards the inside so they aren't exposed to water.

Liposomes are lipid bases particles used for drug and vector delivery. The picture shows a typical liposome.

In the current case, for water to move both outside and inside, hydrophilic heads should be present inside as well as outside the tails.
