The horizontal and vertical circulation of ocean waters are known as currents. The main causes of ocean currents include variation in water density, gravity and wind friction. Surface ocean currents are primarily caused by the wind. Drift currents are surface currents produced primarily by the wind!

How do the laws of thermodynamics relate to the transformation of energy in organisms? Use the terms autotroph and heterotroph w
yarga [219]

Answer:

he organisms that can fix energy from inorganic sources into organic molecules are called autotrophs. Organisms that cannot make their food from inorganic sources but depend on energy rich organic molecules synthesized by autotrophs for their energy needs are called heterotrophs.

The only source of energy for all the ecosystems of the earth is the sun. Light falling on the plants is trapped by the producers or autotrophs in the presence of chlorophyll and is used in synthesizing the organic food called glucose by the process of photosynthesis. By photosynthesis radiant energy of sunlight is transformed into potential energy of food. A part of this energy is trapped by the producers while the rest of the energy is dissipated. The remaining part of energy which is used in the synthesis of plant biomass is called photosynthate which is then available to the next trophic level in the food chain that is the consumers or heterotrophs. In an ecosystem there is a unidirectional flow of energy.
