b. 10% of energy is transferred from the first to the second trophic level.

Explanation:

In trophic level flow of energy is one way, only a small amount of energy get transferred with the organism. A large amount of energy gets dissipated in life processes like respiration, reproduction and digestion. The energy is also released as waste product. Thus, only ten per-cent of the total energy is present in the organism.

The energy transfer does not depend on the number of trophic levels.

Each trophic level receives the 10% energy from the previous trophic level as when algae is eaten by flagship.

With advancing age, the lymphatic system ________.
Pepsi [2]

The right answer is D (less responsive to antigens)


It is proven that, after puberty, thymus activity (an organ that is included in the lymphatic system, producing T cells that pick up antigens) decreases and that in adult and aged people the thymus has no role. Work done in humans indicate that in fact the cellularity begins to decline from birth in favor of lymphocyte perivascular spaces and connective and adipose tissue, which leads to a decrease in the capture of antigens.

If a mutation occurs such that photosystem ii no longer functions as efficiently as it should, what might be most directly affec
ivolga24 [154]

Out of the following given choices;

a) The amount of oxygen produced

b) The rate of ATP synthesis by ATP synthase in the chloroplast

c) The rate at which NADPH is produced

d) The rate at which the protons are transported into the thylakoid

The answer is; A

The photosystem captures energy from sunlight and uses it to split a water molecule.   After splitting the water molecule (by taking an electron), the protein complex transports the electron to plastoquinone. The splitting of water molecules results in evolving of oxygen molecules. The hydrogen is what is used to reduce carbon dioxide to glucose.
