Answer:

A. Chemical energy is used by each of the organisms in the food pyramid, resulting in less energy as it moves up the pyramid.

Explanation:

Green plants are autotrophs. They manufacture their own food through photosynthesis. Through sunlight, the food manufactured has chemical energy stored in them which is made available to the heterotrophs. Heterotrophs are mainly consumers, while autotrophs are producers.

Heterotrophs rely on autotrophs for their nutrition.

Thus, as consumers above at the top of the pyramid feeds on those below, the stored energy is being transferred up and used. These energy reduces as it goes up right to the top of the pyramid.

The best statement that describes how chemical energy is transferred up the pyramid is: "A. Chemical energy is used by each of the organisms in the food pyramid, resulting in less energy as it moves up the pyramid."

How does the genotype of a bacterium determine its phenotype? Use the terms gene, mRNA, ribosome, and polypeptide in your answer
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Typically, the genotype is encoded in the DNA by the gene; this gene in the DNA will then undergo the process of transcription and the information in the gene will be transcripted into mRNA. The mRNA will then undergo the process of translation and the information in the mRNA will  be translated into a polypeptide chiefly by the action of ribosome. Thus, bacteria with different genotypes will have different protein which automatically means that they will have different phenotypes.

What is the correct way to analyze a term that means "softening of the cartilage"?
Ber [7]

Chondromalacia is the synonymous of the cartilage softening (chondro = cartilage, malacia = soft). It's a pathology of softening affecting the joints and more particularly those of the knee (kneecap and femur).

This anomaly can be observed in several circumstances:

• the first is that of direct trauma. It is the cartilaginous lesion occurring before the fracture (fissure) of the cartilage.

• the second is that of common osteoarthritis. It is highly likely that the first stage of osteoarthritis begins with edema (swelling of the cartilage or closed chondropathy) that makes the cartilage less resistant and more vulnerable; this soft cartilage can then crack on its surface (open chondropathy) and these cracks will be more difficult to heal.
