In an ecosystem, why can only one species fill an ecological niche? (Site 1)
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Only one species can fill an ecological niche because each niche is destined exclusively for each species, since its structure, physiology and behavior determine it.

Explanation:

An ecological niche is the way in which each species relates to its environment, to other species and takes advantage of the resources available for its development, being an exclusive and individual characteristic of that species.

The ecological niche is a concept that many consider abstract, since it is unique for a species. Each species has a physical structure, functioning and behavior that differentiates it from the others, which leads it to occupy a certain place within an ecosystem, which would be its ecological niche.

Explain where photosynthesis takes place? What is the function of this organelle?
Damm [24]

Answer:

Chloroplast

its function is to create chemical energy using light energy

Explanation:

Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts which can be compared to mitochondria because they both produce energy for the organism. The Chloroplast contains within it a pigment, chlorophyll which captures the sun's energy and turns into energy which is used to create other parts of photosynthesis. Chloroplasts capture light energy from the sun to produce the free energy stored in ATP and NADPH through a process called photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are one of the many organelles found in the body, and are generally considered to have originated as endosymbiotic cyanobacteria. In this aspect, they are similar to mitochondria but are found only in plants and protist.
