Answer:

In order to reach Net Primary Productivity, it is necessary to deduct from the Gross Primary Productivity the total organic matter that is consumed from a harvest field. So, we have to: <u>Net Primary Productivity (NP) = Gross Primary Productivity - organic matter consumed in the respiration process of the plants.</u>

Explanation:

The factors that influence the net and gross productivity of the ecosystem are: water, light, carbon dioxide and the available nutrients. The more sunlight the system receives, the greater the productivity. Thus, in tropical regions - where there is more sunlight and temperatures are higher throughout the year - productivity is higher than in places with a temperate, cold or polar climate.

It is estimated that 5% of sunlight is transformed into Gross Primary Productivity. The percentage transformed into Net Primary Productivity varies from 2.5% to 4%. For breathing, the plant takes advantage of 1% to 5% of solar energy. These data reveal that sunlight is not the only important factor for productivity: if there is no water in the place, as in deserts, productivity is low, as the soil does not offer conditions for the development of various species.

NPP can be directly assessed by measuring plant traits or harvesting plant material on the ground, but across large areas remotely sensed images can be used to estimate NPP.. im trying to help

The answer is (A. A warm current flows along the coast.) Currents carry cold and warm water from place to place. It's an amazing phenomenon that scientists are still trying to fully figure out.  Some think it's caused by wind, others think it's caused by the shifting of the tectonic plates, but one thing's for sure, currents are VITAL for this planets life.

Anton [14]

Answer:

The cilia in the upper respiratory tract move mucus  down toward the pharynx whereas the cilia in the  lower respiratory tract move them up toward the pharynx.

Explanation:

Through the internal nares, the air enters nasopharynx from the nasal cavity. This air has dust-laden mucus. The nasopharynx is lined with ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium. These cilia move the mucus down toward the most inferior part of the pharynx. The lining of the larynx inferior to the vocal folds is made up of ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium and have ciliated columnar cells, goblet cells, and basal cells.

The goblet cells serve to produce and secrete mucus. The mucus from goblet cells helps trap dust that was not removed in the upper passages. Therefore, the cilia in the upper respiratory tract move mucus and trapped particles down toward the pharynx whereas the cilia in the lower respiratory tract move them up toward the pharynx.
