Explain why an energy pyramid in any ecosystem typically is limited to four or five levels only

Biology
1 answer:
Delvig [45]3 years ago
6 0
Because there is only a finite amount of energy. Energy is lost between each trophic stage. The top predator would gain the least amount of energy, shared between the least amount of organisms within the predator species. Typically there just aren't any other animals that can kill and eat the top predator, but there also wouldn't be enough of the top predator to eat so any species above them would quickly die out.

What will happen if the pollen tube pore its content inside the embryo sac?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Once the embryo sac has developed, pollination has occurred, and the pollen tube has grown into the ovary to make contact with the ovule, fertilization (fusion of egg and sperm) can occur.Typically, the pollen tube reaches the embryo sac via the micropyle (Greek, mikros + pyle = small opening), or opening, in the integuments of the ovule.. There, it discharges its sperm into the embry

Explanation:

The pollen tube enters into the ovule, through the micropyle. Inside the embryo sac, the tip of the pollen tube ruptures and the 2 male gametes are set free near the egg apparatus. Inside the embryo sac, one of the 2 male gametes fuses with the egg nucleus and forms a diploid zygote. This process is called syngamy or true fertilisation.
