Answer:

76.5Kj

Explanation:

A food chain consists of different trophic levels of organisms ranging from the PRODUCERS to the TERTIARY CONSUMERS. According to the pyramid of energy, only about 10% of energy is available for use for the next trophic level as majority of the energy (about 90%) is lost as heat.

Hence, if the primary producers in the energy pyramid contains 76500kJ of energy, the following energy would be available for each trophic level.

Primary producers: 76500kJ

- 10% of energy will be available to the primary consumer = 10/100 × 76500 = 7650kJ

- 10% of energy (7650kJ) will be available to the secondary consumer = 10/100 × 7650 = 765kJ

- 10% of energy (765kJ) will be available to the tertiary consumer = 10/100 × 765 = 76.5kJ

Hence, 76.5kJ of energy will be available for organisms at the tertiary level.

A carbon atom can bond with other atoms in a variety of ways. Wich set of bonds would a typical carbon atom in a compound
notsponge [240]

Answer:

A carbon atom can form up to four covalent bonds as one carbon atom has four valence electrons (in outermost shell). It is a fact that the number of valence electrons in a atom determines the number of covalent bonds it will form. Thus, each electron in carbon atom is used to form four covalent bonds with various four atoms.

Explanation:

A bond between a carbon and hydrogen atom is a non-polar covalent bond. The non-polar covalent bond are the bonds between two atoms which share equal number of electron(s) with each other. Example: as in case of methane, where one carbon atom shares its 4 outer valence electrons with four hydrogens by sharing equal number of electron.

In contrast, polar covalant bond are the bonds between two atoms which share unequal number of electron(s) with each other. Thus these bonds are partially ionic.

Choose one biogeochemical cycle and explain.
ziro4ka [17]
The carbon cycle:

The carbon cycle is the process in which carbon travels from the atmosphere into organisms and the Earth and then back into the atmosphere. Plants take carbon dioxide from the air and use it to make food. Animals then eat the food and carbon is stored in their bodies or released as CO2 through respiration.

Hope this helps :)

Why does Ice Float on water? How does this affect life in Earth’s aquatic environments?
Sonbull [250]

This because ice is less dense than water of particular temperature range.  Water reaches its maximum density at 4 degrees. Ice is important especially for aquatic  life in the polar regions. Polar bears give birth and hunt on sea ice and they need it to travel from one region to another. The ice edge in coastal areas is an important feeding ground for the walrus that uses the ice as diving platforms to feed on clams on the sea floor. Ice algae grow at the porous bottom of sea ice and form the base of the unique marine food web connected to sea ice
