Bacteria protects the cell in your intestine and helps us absorb fatty acids. It is harmful because when you have contact with it, the bacteria can reproduce in your body, damaging it and making you sick.
Answer:
<em>The total amount of energy transferred during photosynthesis for this ecosystem equals</em><em> 260,000 kcal/m2/yr.</em>
Explanation:
To answer this question, we need to know that
- gross primary productivity (GPP) = energy captured and converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis
- net primary productivity (NPP) = difference between GPP and respiration rate
So, to calculate GPP we need to sum NPP to Respiration rate. This if,
NPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr
R = 95,000 kcal/m2/yr
NPP = GPP – Respiration
Then,
GPP = NPP + R
GPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr + 95,000 kcal/m2/yr
GPP = 260,000 kcal/m2/yr
