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.

Explain how the use of a chemical designed to kill grasshoppers could reduce the population of peregrine falcons.
Butoxors [25]
Peregrine falcons have a wide diet, including many types of smaller birds. These birds eat bugs like grasshoppers. So, if the grasshopper population decreases, then the birds who are a food source to peregrine falcons will also have a lower population. This means that there is a lesser amount of food for the peregrine falcons to eat, so their population will decrease as well.
