I think they are primary producers, as they produce biomass from inorganic compounds (CO2)

Answer: Primary producers

A food chain is a linear series of transfer of food and energy when one organism is consumed by the other organism in an ecosystem. The energy is distributed among different tropic levels of the food chains.

Phytoplankton is a class of unicellular simple, autotrophic organisms which are found in water of ocean, lakes and or any other freshwater body. These includes dinoflagellates, diatoms, cynobacteria, green algae and others. These organisms are abundantly present in the ecosystem in the lower most trophic level. They are called as primary producers because they are consumed by other organisms such as zooplanktons, fishes and large sea mammals.

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

1.7 ppm

Explanation:

Original amount N' = 2.6 ppm

time to testing t = 24 hr

final amount N = 2.1 ppm

Using exponential inhibited decay, we have

N = N'e^(-kt)

Where

N is the new reading

N' is the original reading

t is the decay time

k is the decay constant

Substituting, we have

2.1 = 2.6 x e^(-k x 24)

2.1 = 2.6 x e^(-24k)

0.808 = e^(-24k)

We take the natural log of both sides of the equation

Ln 0.808 = Ln (e^(-24k))

-0.213 = - 24k

K = 0.213/24 = 0.00886

After 48 hrs, the reading of free chlorine will be

N = 2.6 x e^(-0.00886 x 48)

N = 2.6 x e^(-0.425)

N = 2.6 x 0.654

N = 1.7 ppm

How many moles of methane are in 20.32 x 10^16 molecules
Marizza181 [45]

Taking into account the definition of avogadro's number, 3.37×10⁻⁷ moles of methane are 20.32×10¹⁶ molecules.

First of all, you have to know that Avogadro's number indicates the number of particles of a substance (usually atoms or molecules) that are in a mole.

Its value is 6.023×10²³ particles per mole and it applies to any substance.

Then you can apply the following rule of three: if 6.023×10²³ molecules are contained in 1 mole of methane, then 20.32×10¹⁶ molecules are contained in how many moles of methane?

amount of moles of methane= (20.32×10¹⁶ molecules × 1 mole)÷ 6.023×10²³ atoms

Solving:

<u><em>amount of moles of methane= 3.37×10⁻⁷ moles</em></u>

Finally, 3.37×10⁻⁷ moles of methane are 20.32×10¹⁶ molecules.

Will mark brilliant pls help question is above​
Degger [83]

Answer:

a.) The garden plants provide energy to all the other organisms. While not every organism consumes garden plants directly, every organism's food lineage can be traced to garden plants. For instance, while ground beetles do not directly consume garden plants, they do eat snails, and snails eat garden plants.

b.) The slug population might increase is the aphid population decreased because there would be less competition for food resources. Both populations consume garden plants, and there is only a finite number of garden plants. Therefore, there is a limit that each population can consume. If there were less aphids eating the garden plants, there would be more left for the slugs. Less starving slugs would lead to greater reproduction and thus a higher slug population.
