. How does an energy pyramid help to describe energy flow in a food web?

Biology

They help to describe the energy flow in a food web because of the transfers of energy between levels.

At the bottom of the pyramid you have technically the most energy. These would be things like grass, bugs, or even plankton and small cells if you want to go down that low. But these things individually don’t contain a lot of energy but put together they contain the most energy in the pyramid because there’s so many of them. As you go up the pyramid the energy in each organism becomes more and more concentrated, though there’s less and less of them. On average there is only about a 10% energy transfer from a lower level to an upper level. So the most energy would be on the bottom, but spread apart, and the least energy would be on the top, but very concentrated.

Good afternoon everyone Umm What is refraction of light hope it's easy good day ✌️​
jeyben [28]
Refraction is the bending of light (it also happens with sound, water and other waves) as it passes from one transparent substance into another. This bending by refraction makes it possible for us to have lenses, magnifying glasses, prisms and rainbows.

Here you go, and i hope you have a good day too :)

1. What do you notice about the angle of Earth?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

1. Today instead of rotating upright, The earth's axis is tilted 23.5 degrees. The angle varies a little over time, but the gravitational pull of the moon prevents it from shifting by more than a degree so. This tilt is what gives us seasons.

2.The cooling effects of more indirect sunlight cause autumn and winter. Because of the earth's approximately 23.5° tilt, the season in the northern and southern hemispheres reversed, about six months apart from each other.
