The energy passed to each subsequent trophic level in food chain is 10% of the energy in the last trophic level. Therefore:
Algae- 4,000 kJ
Larva- 400 kJ
Anchovy- 40 kJ
Eel- 4 kJ

The reduction in the energy passed is due to the fact that when an organism consumes a given amount of energy, it is utilized for different functions within the organism's body and is lost in a form that can not be recovered, for example, as heat energy.

After doing PCR on the same region between two individuals, you notice that each person's DNA yielded pieces of different sizes.
vitfil [10]

Answer:

C. This is an example of VNTRs.

Explanation:

VNTRs are Variable Number Tandem Repeats. These are short sequences of DNA repeated in tandem (that is, the sequences are repeated one next to the other) a certain number of times. Unrelated individuals have a different number of repetitions for a certain region of the DNA, therefore the total length of the fragment is variable among individuals, depending on how many times the short sequence is repeated.
