Which statement best describes energy of an ecosystem?

Biology

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.

The strong force is one of the four fundamental forces of the universe and it holds protons and neutrons in the nuclei of atoms.
allsm [11]

Answer:

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

In the nuclei atoms we know that there are 2 type of particles named protons and neutrons.As we know that  the neutrons are uncharged and protons are positively charged thus in such a close proximity when the proton's are just touching each other the electrostatic forces of repulsion between the particles becomes exceedingly large thus rendering the nucleus theoretically unstable. But as we know that the nucleus is inherently stable indicating that there is another type of force that must act between the nucleons (proton's and neutrons) this fundamental force is known as strong nuclear force and is the strongest force among the 4 fundamental forces in nature.

White raven [17]

Answer:

1. The chi-square statistic is 0. The p-value is 1. Not significant at p < .05.

The chi-square statistic with Yates correction is 0.0642. The p-value is .800028. Not significant at p < .05.

Explanation:

2. By generating large sets of data the ratio will remain same (F1 = 3:1, F2 = 9:3:3:1) according to the Chi-Square analysis. In actual reality, it fails to justify by giving a probability value of 1 that is impossible due to the exceptions of Co-Dominance and Incomplete Dominance...

In a population of tree frogs, the allele that causes yellow eyes (Y) is dominant over the allele that causes orange eyes (y). I
Alex787 [66]

Allele that causes yellow eyes (Y) is dominant over the allele that causes orange eyes (y)

Y = 85% = 0.85 and

y = 100% - 85% = 15% = 0.15

f(y) = square root of y = √y = √0.15 = 0.387

frequency of the allele that causes orange eyes = 0.387

Once we know the value of y, Y + y = 1

Putting the value of y, we get

Y = 1 – 0.387

<span>Frequency of the dominant allele that causes yellow eyes = 0.61</span>
