Explanation:
This is due to the tilted earth's axis. During the summer, the sun's beams hit the Earth at a steep angle. The light does not spread out so a lot, subsequently expanding the measure of energy hitting any given spot. Likewise, the long daylight hours permit the Earth plenty of time to reach warm temperatures.

Everything else is microscopic.
Answer:
The correct answer is ecological isolation.
Explanation:
The condition when two species in spite of living in the same region, exhibits certain characteristics, which inhibits them from mating with each other is termed as reproductive isolation. The obstructions or the causes that prevent them from interbreeding is known as isolating mechanisms.
The given case is an example of ecological isolation and is one of the forms of reproductive isolation. Habitat or ecological isolation refers to the phenomenon in which two species cannot mate with each other as they thrive in two distinct locations. Like as mentioned, two species of garter snakes though coming from the same geographical area cannot interbreed, as one of them is living in the land and the other one in the water.
Answer:
E) 2
Explanation:
The energy transfer through the food chain is not 100% from one consumer to another, or from the producer to the primary consumer, but instead it is around 10%. This means that if a producer has the 100% of energy, as it is the one that produces it, the primary consumer will only get 10% of its energy while consuming it, while the predator of the the primary consumer will only 10% from the primary consumer, or rather only 1% from the energy of the producer. In this case we have 200 kg of plant material. The plant material represents a producer, thus it is the one with 100% of energy. A herbivore will eat the plant material, getting 10% of its energy, thus this plant material is supporting about 20 kg of herbivore. The predator of the herbivore gets only 10% from the herbivore's energy, or only 1% of the producer's energy, thus only 2 kg of predator can be supported by the initial plant material.
