ssuming that a fox’s daily caloric requirement is 800 kcal, and that only 10 percent of the energy at one trophic level can be passed to the next trophic level. How many square meters of plant material are required to support the fox, if the net primary productivity of the plant material is 8,000 kcal/m2/yr?

Answer:

square metres of plant materials required to support the fox = 3650 m²

Explanation:

From the given information:

the daily caloric requirement of the fox = 800  

In a year, we have = 800 kcal × 365 /year = 292,000 kcal/year

Also, only 10% of the energy at a particular trophic level can be passed onto the next.

the net productivity of the plant material = 8000 kcal/m²/yr

So, using 10% of energy at a particular level, the fox only need 80 kcal/m²/yr

The objective is to determine in square meters, how many materials are required to support the fox.

square metres of plant materials required to support the fox = \dfrac{292,000}{80}

= 3650 m²

Answer:

The supreme court is the highest judicial court in a country or state. A Plaintiff In The Supreme Court Nondiscrimination Case Did Not Get To See Victory.  But not everyone involved in the case was there to see the victory. Aimee Stephens was the sole transgender plaintiff, and Stephens passed away last month. From member station in Detroit, Eli Newman has this remembrance. The goal was that she wanted to live. She got to live. The key rights were seeing Victory. No, it did not really center on an issue of civil rights or civil liberties. The majority of the court was for her to live. Some disagreed because they didn't want her to live. It had an impact on American society because they are finally allowed to see Victory.

Hope that answered your question. Please mark as Brainly. Thank You! Have a great day!

Both the Civil Rights movement and the women's rights movement organized protests to raise public awareness about discrimination
JulijaS [17]
African american problems were bigger than those women were facing, because women faced discrimination in the workplace and stuff like that etc , however african americans faced problems in all aspects of what make up a person. So african americans had to take other means of trying fight for their rights as malcolm x once said, “by any means necessary” so that leads me to my next point.. african americans used 2 different tactics like civil disobedience and a more militant type of strategy. Civil disobedience was the act of going on marches and organizint sit ins etc, but in a peaceful way and was lead by marthin luther king. However the more militant movement included violence etc, you name it and that was lead by malcolm x. Women were able to get their way through with things like the feminist movement and the civila rights act of 1964 which included title 9 that prohibited discrimination in the workplace despite of race, gender, ect.
