The answer is: the source of information could be biased

The scientist is interviewing environmentalists and then generalized their opinion as "people". An environmentalist is a person that cares about the environment, so they will more likely to deny the option that harms the environment. If the dam harmful to the environment, most environmentalists will not approve it.

<span>I don't know if you have any options, but I'd say that the rhyme scheme of this poem is aabbcc, etc. - this means that two lines rhyme, and then the next to lines rhyme, etc. The entire poem is written in the octosyllabic couplet, meaning that each line has 8 syllables (an octave), and the term couplet refers to the rhyme - that every two lines rhyme. </span>

The net primary production of a pine forest on a lava flow on Mount Fuji is about 165,000 kcal/m2/yr, and the plant respiration
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

<em>The total amount of energy transferred during photosynthesis for this ecosystem equals</em><em> 260,000 kcal/m2/yr.</em>

Explanation:

To answer this question, we need to know that  

  • gross primary productivity (GPP) = energy captured and converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis
  • net primary productivity (NPP) = difference between GPP and respiration rate

So, to calculate GPP we need to sum NPP to Respiration rate. This if,

NPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr

R = 95,000 kcal/m2/yr

NPP = GPP – Respiration

Then,

GPP = NPP + R

GPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr + 95,000 kcal/m2/yr

GPP = 260,000 kcal/m2/yr

Do you think it would be possible to construct a pyramid where the number of carnivores was more than the number of herbivores?
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pyramid is the use of graph to represents the flow of energy in each trophic level. There are five trophic level and each has its own energy level pyramid help to show the energy at each level.

Each energy level must have at least One tenth of the energy level of the organisms before itself, this indicates that the energy in the lower tropic level is higher than the trophic level above.

Hence, carnivores cannot be more than herbivores in a biomass they need enough of herbivores to survive in the biomass as the energy level moves from the herbivores to the carnivores.
