When energy passes from one trophic level to the next, I would guess that the two factors which decrease the total amount of energy from being passed up are:
1. An organism does not assimilate all the energy of food consumed. Within a consumer, digestion and assimilation of energy is not 100% efficient: some of the energy is lost.
2. A large proportion of energy assimilated by a producer and consumer is lost through respiration, i.e., day-to-day maintenance of metabolic processes.
Answer:
B is the correct answer. I got it right.
Answer:
This demonstrate the transforming principle.
Explanation:
Griffith performed the experiment on the virulent bacteria and non- virulent bacteria. The non- virulent bacteria produce rough colonies and did not cause pneumonia. The virulent bacteria produces smooth colonies that kill the mice and caused pneumonia.
When Griffith mixed the on virulent bacteria and heat killed virulent bacteria he found that the mice were killed. He concluded that there was transforming principle that turns the non- virulent bacteria into virulent bacteria from the heat killed bacteria. Something, has been transferred from the heat killed bacteria to the non- virulent bacteria. Later, he found that dead mice blood sample contained both the non-virulent rough bacteria strains and virulent smooth strains of bacteria.
Sorry i need pointsss the answer is nasal passages yeah
