Sexual reproduction cells. Or just sex cells
Energy flows through an ecosystem and cannot be recycled.
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
Answer:
The answer is C, 40,000.
Explanation:
You can obviously tell that 400 is too low... that's one meal for all of the turtles! They would need 40,000 minnows because it's a stable number. They can reproduce, and keep the population up. 4,000, though, is too low because they wouldn't have enough time to reproduce and continue to keep the population alive. Therefore, 40,000 should be a stable population.
