Muslim leader

Ibn al-Haytham was the first to explain that vision occurs when light reflects from an object and then passes to one's eyes. He was also the first to demonstrate that vision occurs in the brain, rather than in the eyes. Building upon a naturalistic, empirical method pioneered by Aristotle in ancient Greece, Ibn al-Haytham was an early proponent of the concept that a hypothesis must be supported by experiments based on confirmable procedures or mathematical evidence—an early pioneer in the scientific method five centuries before Renaissance scientists.

Born in Basra, he spent most of his productive period in the Fatimid capital of Cairo and earned his living authoring various treatises and tutoring members of the nobilities. Ibn al-Haytham is sometimes given the byname al-Baṣrī after his birthplace, or al-Miṣrī ("of Egypt"). Al-Haytham was dubbed the "Second Ptolemy" by Abu'l-Hasan Bayhaqi and "The Physicist" by John Peckham.Ibn al-Haytham paved the way for the modern science of physical optics.

Which organism gains energy directly from eating the krill?
Marianna [84]
The answer is whales. In the Antartic and Arctic regions, krills and whales are very abundant in numbers. Whales are number one consumer of krills in these regions. They can feed on a large swarm of krills when they feed.  They also have less competition on these icy waters. They gain energy every time from eating them.
