Weathering is when rock, soil or minerals are broken down. Erosion moves rock or soil from one place to another. Erosion is also the process of being eroded by wind or water.
Answer:
Most food webs have between 4 and 5 trophic levels
Explanation:
Energy flow: From the whole quantity of energy that reaches the earth's surface, autotroph organisms or producers only absorb 0.1 or 1%.
From the input of solar energy begins a unidirectional energy flow. It passes through all the organisms in the ecosystem, from autotrophs to heterotrophs, until it is eventually dissipated in the environment.
There is an energy transfer from each trophic level to the next, and each level only uses 10% of this energy. This assessment is called "The 10% rule". As a general rule, only about 10% of the energy stored as biomass at one trophic level, per unit time, ends up as biomass at the next trophic level, in the same unit of time. The rest of the energy is used by the organisms in their own metabolism or dissipated as heat to the environment.
The progressive reduction of energy determines the number of trophic levels, which, in general, turns to be between 4 and 5.
To answer this question we need to remember quickly how the carbon cycle works, a part of the free carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is captured by plants through photosynthesis, other dissolves into water bodies, and some more remains in the atmosphere. This fixated carbon by plants passes to animals where can integrate into the soil or be released again into the atmosphere. The carbon that remains in the soul can form fossil fuels that are used by humans in the industry and released once more to the atmosphere. Therefore taking this into account we can say that that order is as follows:
Photosynthesis: Plants
Burning oil and coal: Factories
Respiration: Animals
Decomposers: Fossil fuels
Okay what shall i help you with
With increase in altitude atm pressure decreases... :)
