Biomass is usually defined as those organic molecules that are obtained from plants and animals, in order to produce energy. It is a renewable resource. Some of the examples of biomass include wood, crop, animal fossil fuel.
A large number of trees are being cut down to construct these biomass energies such as woods. This results in the deforestation process where the forested areas are converted into empty dry soils. This results in the increasing rate of erosion because the prevailing wind and flowing water can easily carry away the topsoil and loses the fertility of the soil.
Thus, the correct answers are both options (I) and (III).
Metals lose electrons under certain conditions to attain a noble gas electron configuration. Magnesium has 12 electrons and its electron configuration is
1s² 2s² 2p6⁶ 3s²
When magnesium loses 2 electrons, it acquires the electron configuration of neon (10 electrons).
Answer: Primary consumers make up the second trophic level. They are also called herbivores. They eat primary producers—plants or algae—and nothing else. For example, a grasshopper living in the Everglades is a primary consumer
