Which statement best describes energy of an ecosystem?

Biology
2 answers:
tatuchka [14]3 years ago

The correct answer is option C

The only source of energy in an ecosystem is the sun. The green plants make food by the help of photosynthesis. These plants are also eaten by the herbivores and then these herbivores animals are eaten by the carnivores animals present in the ecosystem.

The energy from the sun is transferred to herbivores, then from herbivores to carnivores.

Some amount of energy is also lost during the process of energy transfer.

The energy transferred from one level to another + the energy lost

= energy absorbed from the sun.

The energy of the ecosystem can be best described as option C. The amount of energy entering an ecosystem from the Sun is equal to the amount used by organisms plus the amount lost as heat.

For both actin and microtubule polymerization, nucleotide hydrolysis is important for ______. Group of answer choices promoting
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

For both actin and microtubule polymerization, nucleotide hydrolysis is important for decreasing the binding strength between subunits on filaments.

Explanation:

Cytoskeletal filaments are common to eucaryotic cells and are impotartant to the spatial organization of cells. Intermediate filaments provide mechanical strength and resistance to shear stress. Microtubules determine the positions of membrane-enclosed organelles and direct intracellular transport. Actin filaments determine the shape of the cell's surface and are necessary for whole-cell locomotion. A large number of accessory proteins are present that link the filaments to other cell components, as well as to each other. Accessory proteins are essential for the assembly of the cytoskeletal filaments in particular locations, and it includes the motor proteins that either move organelles along the filaments or move the filaments themselves.

Actin filaments and microtubules are assembled with expenditure of energy i.e the ATP/GTP tightly bound to actin/tubulin is irreversibly hydrolyzed to ADP/GTP during the assembly process, and liberation of Pi in the medium occurs subsequent to the incorporation of subunits in the polymer. Pi release acts as a switch, causing the destabilization of protein-protein interactions in the polymer, therefore regulating the dynamics of these fibres. The progress is made in four areas: the chemistry of the NTPase reaction; the structure of the intermediates in nucleotide hydrolysis and the nature of the conformational switch; the regulation of parameters involved in dynamic instability of microtubules; and the possible involvement of nucleotide hydrolysis in the macroscopic organization of these polymers in highly concentrated solutions, compared with the simple case of a equilibrium polymers.

Which creature cannot survive in the presence of oxygen? Give Examples. What does the creature need to survive instead of oxygen
yan [13]

Answer:

Instead of oxygen a creature would also need nutrients. Simple everyday things like water and food.

Explanation:

Although it is kind of impossible to live without oxygen. There are organisms on the earth who do not need it and can survive. They metabolize hydrogen or methane or a number of other compounds.
