Energy is always lost as energy is moved from one level to another. ... The loss of energy due to the second law of thermodynamics results in a pyramid with a large base and a 10% ratio between levels.
Answer:
Option B, It increases the probability that some offspring will survive long enough to reproduce.
Explanation:
The larger the number of eggs, the larger will be the available opportunities for at least few of the youngsters to develop into adult being and survive till the age of fertility. This shall enhance the chances of producing new offspring before the older one dies thereby replacing them without changing the population number and further producing offspring that can survive to replace them and continue this chain.
Hence, option B is correct
D. two atp are invested in the process of glycolysis
Answer:
(a) number of strands (n) = time (t) ÷ proportionality constant (k)
(b) The time needed for the bacterial to double its initial size is 3.36 hours.
Explanation:
(a) Let the rate (time) be represented by t and the amount (number) of strands of bacteria be represented by n
t is proportional to n, therefore, t = kn (k is the proportionality constant)
Since t = kn, then, n = t/k
(b) Initial amount of strands = 300
Amount of strands after 2 hours = 300 + (300 × 20/100) = 300 + 60 = 360
k = t/n = 2/360 = 0.0056 hour/strand
Double of the initial size is 600 (300×2 = 600)
Time (t) needed for the bacterial to double its initial size = kn = 0.0056×600 = 3.36 hours
the answer is c. hydrogen bonding
