The structure shown by the red arrow is cell membrane.  

In biology, cell membrane refers to the thin layer, which develops the external boundary of a living cell. It has three primary functions, which are as follows:  

1. It comprises channels and receptors, which permits particular molecules like nutrients, ions, metabolic components, and wastes to pass between the cell and the outside environment.  

2. It prevents toxic components from entering the cell.  

3. They distinguish essential but incompatible metabolic procedures conducted within the cell.

Looks like a cell membrane. So the function would be to control what goes into and out of the cell.

Determine if the following statement is true or false and why. “Primary and Secondary Consumers lose about 30% of the energy the
Elodia [21]

True. The correct option is C.

<h3>Energy transfer in the ecosystem</h3>

Energy is transferred from lower to higher trophic levels of the food chain in any ecosystem.

In other words, energy is transferred when primary consumers feed on producers, when secondary consumers feed on primary consumers, and so on.

However, when energy is transferred through feeding from lower to higher trophic levels, a certain percentage of the energy is lost to the surroundings as heat.

In actual fact, scientists believe that about 90% (and not 30%) of the energy is lost as heat to the surrounding. Only about 10% of the energy is converted to useful energy.
