If there was not a constant Input of energy into the ecosystem then nothing would have the power to do anything and nothing would be alive. the energy starts with the sun, then goes to plants, then animals that eat the plants, and then the animals that eat those animals, Ect. if this chain reaction did not happen then the plants wouldn't have to power to go through photosynthesis and then we would get no energy. the amount of energy lessen with every chain that it goes through, this is why we get more energy eating plants and why they are healthier.
Answer:
1. Archipelago in Ecuador
2. Different beaks
3. He used Darwinism/ survival of the fittest / evolution to explain these adaptations. The birds on different islands adapted to varying, but specific food types.
4. mutation, gene flow, genetic drift, and natural selection.
Mutation creates new genetic variation in a gene pool.
Gene flow and genetic drift alter allele frequencies in a gene pool.
5. The finches have few predators / competition for food.
Explanation:
A DNA sequence can be compared between two different organisms to determine their relationship.
Female. If the puppy has two identical chromosomes, it would be XX, being female.
Answer:
b. Mitochondrial respiration
Explanation:
Mitochondrial respiration of plants involves the participation of two major electron transport routes:
1. Cytochrome c oxidase route: cyanide sensitive and coupled to three energy conservation sites.
2. Cyanide-insensitive alternative route: involves alternative oxidase (AOX), branches off the cytochrome oxidase route into the ubiquinone pool, with no energy conservation thereafter as AOX is able to directly oxidize ubiquinol and reduce oxygen to water.
Regardless of the route followed, mitochondrial breathing is a long and complex process. However, it is through this breath that at a given moment electrons are passed to oxygen through a carrier channel in the inner mitochondrial membrane. This happens when cytochromes to and some molecules that have a heme group (with an iron atom) and are linked to a transmembrane protein that connects the matrix to the mitochondrial intermembrane space and have two copper atoms that allow the transport of electrons to the final acceptor, oxygen (O2).
