Why doesn’t a stable ecosystem have more tertiary consumers than primary consumers?

Chemistry

Tertiary consumers are usually big predators which 
1) have a tendency to claim large territories for themselves 
2) need more energy and thus eat more than primary consumers

Answer:

Potential energy can be defined as the energy in a body due to its position

In simple terms potential energy is the energy at rest

Explanation: Examples ;

  • A spring has more potential energy when it is compressed or stretched.
  • A steel ball has more potential energy raised above the ground than it has after falling to Earth.

Consider the SCl2 molecule. (a) What is the electron config- uration of an isolated S atom? (b) What is the electron con- figura
iragen [17]

Answer:

(a) 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴

(b) 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵

(c) sp³

(d) No valence orbital remains unhybridized.

Explanation:

<em>Consider the SCl₂ molecule. </em>

<em>(a) What is the electron configuration of an isolated S atom? </em>

S has 16 electrons. Its electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴.

<em>(b) What is the electron configuration of an isolated Cl atom? </em>

Cl has 17 electrons. Its electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵.

<em>(c) What hybrid orbitals should be constructed on the S atom to make the S-Cl bonds in SCl₂? </em>

SCl₂ has a tetrahedral electronic geometry. Therefore, the orbital 3s hybridizes with the 3 orbitals 3 p to form 4 hybrid orbital sp³.

<em>(d) What valence orbitals, if any, remain unhybridized on the S atom in SCl₂?</em>

No valence orbital remains unhybridized.

To sum up the question: why are some parts of the body more sensitive than others?
natulia [17]

Answer:

Some areas of the body are more sensitive than others because they have more nerve endings. It hurts when you bite your tongue because the sides of your tongue have a lot of nerve endings that are very sensitive to pain! The tongue, lips, and fingertips are the most touch-sensitive parts of the body.  The parts of your skin that need to be most sensitive like your fingertips and your lips have more receptor cells in them than others less sensitive areas.  The least sensitive skin on the human body is found in the heel area. This is because there are very few nerves in the heel to feel things. If there were too many nerves in our heels then walking would be far too painful.
