The basic structure of a steroid differ from other macromolecules such as carbohydrates by having a four ring structure whereas a carbohydrate do not have. A steroid is a group of organic substances which has four rings that are arranged in a certain configuration. Examples are testosterone, estradiol and lipid cholesterol. It will always have seventeen carbon atoms in its structure. Carbohydrates, on the other hand, are a group of organic substances that consist carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms typically in a 2:1 ratio of the hydrogen and oxygen atoms. So, it would have an empirical formula of Cx(H2O)y.
Answer:
saprophytes are responsible for consumption of decay or decid matter

Answer:
2 unit
Explanation:
According to the 10% law, the transfer of biomass energy from one higher trophic level to lower trophic level is only 10%.
Primary(Producer)→Primary consumers→secondary consumers→tertiary consumers.
that is 2000→200→20→2
note: only 10% of the total biomass is received by the next trophic level.
therefore tertiary consumers will receive 2 units of biomass.
