Answer:

Explanation:

The author concludes the passage by asserting that: “one thing will never change: fathers and mothers, if you have children, they must come first. You must read to your children. And you must hug your children. And you must love your children. Your success as a family, our success as a society, depends not on what happens in the White House, but on what happens inside your house.” In context, therefore, the anecdote about the complaining husband reinforces the importance the author attaches to cherishing “human connections,” particularly those within the immediate family (“what happens inside your house”). In the story, the wife’s remonstrations offer a critique of the general tendency to view childcare as a chore (“babysitting”); instead, the author suggests that caring for “your own kids” should be viewed as an opportunity to make one of “the most important investments you will ever make.”

Using the diagram above, identify the relationship between the mice and the wheat as it relates to the amount of available energ

jenyasd209 [6]

There is no diagram or image attached. However, from the question, it is easy to deduce that the subject is about Trophic Levels and Energy Transfer.

Please see the attached image.

According to the science of Energy Transfer, the amount of energy available at each successive level of the food chain or food pyramid, or trophic level becomes smaller and smaller relative to the energy level available in the preceding level.

As seen in the image to the left, the sun which is a natural source of energy contains an abundant amount of energy. The plant is a primary producer because it produces food directly from the sun and hence has at its disposal an abundant amount of energy.

Mice are an omnivore (that is, they eat both plants (such as wheat) and animals such as grasshoppers) hence it can be found at the two levels above the plant's trophic level. This means that they can be primary or secondary depending on what they are feeding on at the time.

So in its relationship with the wheat, the mouse is a secondary consumer. Because energy is lost as one travels up the trophic level, the amount of energy available to mice at that level is way lower than the amount available to the wheat.
