The tendency for energy to be lost as heat during the transformation of organic matter is support for what concept?

Biology
1 answer:
leonid [27]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a. Entropy

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of the degree of disorder of a system, being a measure of the unavailability of energy. Rudolf Clausius was the first to use the term Entropy in 1865. Entropy would be the measure of the amount of thermal energy that cannot be reversed into mechanical energy (cannot perform work) at a given temperature.

Because of this concept, we can understand that the tendency of energy to be lost as heat during the transformation of organic matter supports the concept of entropy.

Why food must be digested before entering your cells?
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Digestion is important for breaking down food into nutrients, which the body uses for energy, growth, and cell repair. Food and drink must be changed into smaller molecules of nutrients before the blood absorbs them and carries them to cells throughout the body.     Protein must be broken down into amino acids.     Starches break down into simple sugars.     Fats break down into into fatty acids and glycerol.

In a study published in the journal Nature, scientists studied eight ponds in Florida: four that were populated by a species of
AlexFokin [52]

Answer: the rate of pollination of flower, in a field next to a pond with no fish, will DECREASE.

Explanation:

POLLINATION is defined as the process by which flowering plants, through the aid of external agents such as insects,wind, water and other animals, are able to transfer pollen grains from an anther to a receptive stigma. Insects are the most common pollinators. They visit flowers to obtain nectar and pollen as source of food. Flowers use various features, such as colour and scent, to attract and guide insects to the food source within them. In the process of reaching their source of food, insects bring about pollination.

From the study conducted by scientist in Florida, eight(8) ponds where subjected to the the study. The first four (4) ponds had species of fishes that fed on dragonflies and dragonfly larvae, hence the reason for a decrease in the population of the dragon flies in the area around it. While the remaining four (4) ponds had NO fish and the area around it is populated with dragonflies and dragonfly larvae. This is so because of the absence of fish.

It was then noted that the dragon lies fed of the insect pollinators such as the bees and butterflies. Since these dragonflies and its larvae are abundant in the field which is close to the pond with no fish, they will grossly depend on the insect pollinators as their source of food thereby decreasing the rate of pollination in the field next to the pond with no fish.
