Why are large numbers of ocean animals found in areas where upwelling occurs?

Biology
1 answer:
monitta4 years ago
6 0
Upwelling waters occur when the warm water, on the surface of the oceans in the equatorial regions are pushed towards the poles by winds and the denser cold currents on the ocean bottom move up to replace the displaced waters. The denser currents are usually nutrient-filled and are an ideal substrate for growth of phytoplankton as they warm up on the surface. The algae bloom attracts fish and other producers in the sea. The producers consequently attract other carnivorous fish.

Which statement correctly describes the flow of energy in a food web?
Snezhnost [94]
C. Energy from producers flows into multiple levels of consumers

Plants give the lesser animals in the food chain their energy, those same lesser animals will get consumed by the predators, which will give the predator some of the energy that the producer/plant gave to the eaten animal. It won’t be the same as eating it first hand, but it’s still being given to the predator
