Answer:
There is an increase in demand for higher quality and quantity of food and other products.
Explanation:
There is an increase in demand for higher quality and quantity of food and other products. So, there is a huge requirement for technological innovation. Investment is needed in research and development to develop crops that are pesticide-free, resistant to disease, and able to face various weather conditions. Vertical farming and carbon-capture technology can be used to meet growing world food demands.
Metamorphic rocks are formed from other rock that has been subjected to very high temperature and pressure.
When one of the earth's plates comes in contact with another either by both traveling opposite directions, straight into each other, or from one slipping under the other (subduction zone), the pressure/friction of the plates against each other melts the rocks and after they cool they are metamorphic. Example is in Washington state when the Juan de fuca plate is going under the North American plate the pressure/friction of this melts the rocks which then form metmorphic rock.
Answer:
1. Explain why predators need to eat more than primary consumers.
Explanation:
Predators need to eat more than primary consumers because in the trophic pyramid, primary consumers are at the bottom which means they receive the most energy because they eat the plants. As the pyramid goes on upwards, energy is lost each time, so that means by the time it reaches the top of the pyramid their is only about 0.1% of the energy we started with when the primary consumers ate the producers. Meaning, the predators need to eat more than the primary consumers because although the predators eat more than the primary consumers, they still at the end of the day get the same amount of energy just one eats more than another.
