Answer:

Option B, 18.11 \frac{N}{cm^{2}}

Explanation:

Given-

The average surface area of one foot pad of an elephant is 2920 cm^{2}\\

Weight of an Asian elephant is 52900 newton

As we know, pressure is equal to total weight divided by total area of the surface on which it is concentrated.

Thus, pressure on one foot  pad of elephant is \frac{52900}{2920} \frac{N}{cm^{2}} \\

= 18.11\frac{N}{cm^{2}}

Hence, option B is correct answer

The average conversion energy from producers to primary consumers is a. 1% b. 10% C. 50% d. 100%​
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The average conversion energy from producers to primary consumers is b. 10%.

Explanation:

This percentage actually holds true for all transfer of energy at any trophic level in the food chain. Majority of the energy loss can be attributed to metabolic processes that give off heat and other forms of energy. It is important to note that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it is simply transformed from one form to another.

Answer:

1. in animal cell and 3. in plant cell In animals mitochondria transforms energy and chloroplast in plant cell  absorb energy from sun light and turns water and carbon dioxide into glucose

Explanation:

1. Mitochondria: It is the powerhouses of a cell oval in shape found in eukaryotic cell.Its a site of cellular respiration. It converts glucose in chemical energy known as ATP (Adenosine triphosphate). ATP provides energy to carry out cellular function by breaking high energy bond.Mitochondria are abundant in cells requires energy to perform functions such as muscle and liver cells.

2. Chloroplast: In plants and algae chloroplast is a site of photosynthesis,it contains a pigment chlorophyll which captures energy from sunlight and turn water and carbon dioxide into glucose as food of plants.
