Consider the following prairie food chain. Tall grass is consumed by grasshoppers that, in turn, are eaten by mice, and the mice

are eaten by prairie kingsnakes. Red-tailed hawks prey on mice and prairie kingsnakes. When a red-tailed hawk dies, bacteria, beetles, fungi, and many types of worms help break down the body. Which of the following correctly identifies a trophic level in this ecosystem?
(A) Grasshoppers are primary consumers.
(B) Mice are primary consumers.
(C) prairie kingsnakes are secondary consumers.
(D) Grass is primary consumers.

Answer:

(A) Grasshoppers are primary consumers.

Explanation:

A food chain is the chain of different organisms in which one organism is being eaten by others. In every food chain consists of producers and different consumers such as primary, secondary and tertiary or top consumers. In the given prairie ecosystem, the tall grasses are producers. The grasshopper feeds on the grass so they are the primary consumers and the mice is eaten by mice, so it is secondary consumers.

1) What happens to the force between two object, if
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

<h3>Heyy mate!</h3>

Explanation:

  1. (i) The gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of masses of the two objects. So, if the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force also gets doubled (it becomes 2 times).
  2. If the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is doubled. ... Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces.
  3. The distance between the objects is doubled and tripled
  4. Force thus becomes one-fourth of its initial force. Force thus becomes one-ninth of its initial force.
  5. Since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. ... If the mass of both of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is quadrupled; and so on.
