Why an ecosystem requires a constant input of energy

Biology
1 answer:
pychu [463]3 years ago
3 0
The ecosystem requires a constant input of energy because energy cannot be stored. The enrgy always gets converted for supporting life in the ecosystem. Some amount of energy is also lost during this conversion. So if there is not a constant supply of energy, then the ecosystem will ultimately breakdown. In case of humans, the energy is received by consuming food. The energy of the food geets converted to the enrgy that helps a human being to complete his daily chores. So energy is being lost at every step. To regain this energy the humans have to eat food regularly. This way the humans need a constant supply of energy to survive. It is the same in the case of all living things in the ecosystem.

A husband and wife both have cleft chins, and when you look at their four children, three also have cleft chins; however, one do
Reptile [31]

Answer:

B- A cleft chin is due to a dominant allele

Explanation:

A husband and wife both having the phenotype for cleft chin and producing an offspring without a cleft chin, indicates heterozygousity in their genotype.

With the heterozygous genotype however, they both expressed the phenotype for cleft chin, indicating that the allele for cleft chin is dominant over the allele coding for normal chin.

Since both parents are heterozygous for cleft lip, the  sequence of genotype in their offspring will be:

  • 25% chance of having homozygous cleft chin
  • 50% chance of having heterozygous cleft chin
  • 25% chance of having homozygous normal chin

Because of the dominance of the cleft chin allele, both homozygous and heterozygous forms of the cleft chin allele, will be expressed in the offspring and only the offspring homozygous for normal chin will not express this allele.
