"Grass, grasshopper, snake, hawk" is a food chain* because there is a feeding hierarchy in which food energy flows from one energy to the next. Allow me to elaborate, the grasshopper feeds on the grass and consumes its energy, then the grasshopper is consumed by the snake, who is higher on the trophic** levels, and finally the snake is consumed by the hawk. The hawk absorbs all of the food energy collected from the previous organisms, completing this example of a food chain.

*A food chain is a chain of organisms that feed on each other in a systematic hierarchy and the food energy they collect is passed up the chain.

**A trophic level is a group of organisms that are on the same level in a food chain. So as one organism is consumed by another, it is being eaten by an organism on a higher trophic level than itself. This can be seen in your example, from the grass all the way up to the hawk.

Good luck and have a nice day! ~ c:

<h2>Active and Passive Immunity</h2>

Explanation:

Immunity can be obtained distinctly and Recovery from clinical tetanus doesn't bring about assurance against future disease by active or passive immunization and recovery from the clinical for example, immunization, immunoglobulin treatment, or move of maternal antibodies through the placenta
Active inoculation stimulates the immune system to deliver antibodies against a specific irresistible specialist
Active immunity can emerge normally, as when somebody is presented to a pathogen. For example, a person who recuperates from a first instance of the measles is insusceptible to advance immunity

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Homolog genes with sequence identity often exhibit differences in length associated with size variations in the intronic sequences

Explanation:

In eukaryotic organisms, genes are composed by 1- coding sequences (i.e., exons) that are transcribed into precursor mRNAs, and 2-noncoding regions (or introns), which are not transcribed but contain sequences involved in the control of gene expression

Read "What Emissions and Byproducts Are Produced from Burning Coal?" Why is the presence of mercury in water of great concern to

Degger [83]

1 - The most common emission and byproducts that are generated by burning coal are carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and dioxides and CCPs in genearl (coal combustion products).

2 - Mercury is a heavy liquid metal with some toxical properties. When ingested (most commonly trough water) can be fatal [for further info search Mercury Poisoning]. Something I should also point out is that most of the contaminated water sources are residual waters.

Hope it helped,

Happy homework/ study/ exam!

A mutation in a gene often results in a reduction of the product of that gene. the term for this type of mutation is ________.

hodyreva [135]

That type of mutation is a loss of function (or null if there was a complete reduction of the gene)
