Answer:

- body waves

- surface waves

Explanation:

The earthquakes produce two major types of seismic waves, body waves and surface waves. The body waves are the seismic waves that travel through the layers of the Earth. The surface waves are the waves that only travel on the surface of the Earth and the surface of the water bodies. The earthquakes are a natural phenomenon that occurs most at places where there is more intense geologic activity. Because the crust is cracking and breaking deep inside, lot of adjustments occur, and through the adjustments, lot of energy is released, which is manifested through these two types of waves.

Suppose a fox in a food web feeds only on rabbits, squirrels, mice and birds, all of which feed exclusively on plant material. A
Illusion [34]

Answer:

square metres of plant materials required to support the fox = 3650 m²

Explanation:

From the given information:

the daily caloric requirement of the fox = 800  

In a year, we have = 800 kcal × 365 /year = 292,000 kcal/year

Also, only 10% of the energy at a particular trophic level can be passed onto the next.

the net productivity of the plant material = 8000 kcal/m²/yr

So, using 10% of energy at a particular level, the fox only need 80 kcal/m²/yr

The objective is to determine in square meters, how many materials are required to support the fox.

square metres of plant materials required to support the fox = \dfrac{292,000}{80}

= 3650 m²
