Hi!
Energy will flow through an ecosystem in one <em>direction, </em>from the sun or inorganic compounds to<em> autotrophs </em>and then to various <em>heterotrophs. </em>
The energy flow in an area will be delivering light energy to <em>autotrophs</em>, which make their food from the energy the sun produces.
The energy flow also delivers energy via inorganic compounds to <em>heterotrophs</em>, which do not make their own food.
Hopefully, this helps! =)
Answer:
Osmosis is the form of energy.
..
Explanation:
A. chloroplast
B. vacuole
C. plasma membrane
D. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Answer:
First a warm front then a cold front.
Explanation:
Cyclone may be defined as the amount of the large air and move around the area that has low atmospheric pressure. The cyclone can cause the large disturbances to the living organisms.
The cyclone formation occurs at the low polar vertices. The two main types of front are related to the cyclone. The warm front first form for the air movement. This warm front is later replaced by the formation of the cold front of that cyclone.
Thus, the correct answer is option (3).
Answer:
4. transforming the energy in glucose and related molecules in a chemical form that cells can use for work
Explanation:
Glycolysis breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate which is transformed into acetyl CoA to enter the Kreb's cycle. Kreb's cycle breakdown the acetyl CoA into CO2 and H2O. The energy stored in the glucose molecule is released during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle. The released energy is stored in the form of NADH and FADH2 as well as in few molecules of ATP.
The NADH and FADH2 enter the final step of cellular respiration, the oxidative phosphorylation. Here, NADH and FADH2 are oxidized with the help of electron transport chain (ETC). During the transfer of electrons through ETC, the proton motive force is generated which then helps in ATP synthesis.
Hence, the three steps of cellular respiration (glycolysis + Kreb's cycle + oxidative phosphorylation) retrieve the energy from nutrients such as glucose and store it in the form of ATP. ATP is used by cells as an energy source for various other functions.
