Answer:

The source of energy for the food web is heat, i.e. the Sun. Since 100% energy is available to the producers, the first-level consumers have 10%, the second-level 1%, and third-level 0.1%. This is due to what is known as trophic efficiency, or the 10% rule: basically, 10% of the energy at a lower level is present at the level right above it (level as in trophic level).

Which product does the Krebs cycle require from the electron transport chain

emmasim [6.3K]

NAD +molecule

Explanation:

Krebs cycle and electron transport chain are important steps in cellular respiration.

In the Krebs cycle, there is a need of NAD+ molecule which is then in Krebs cycle reduced to form a NADH2 molecule.

NADH2 is also an energy currency. It , giving electron in electron transport chain and return to Krebs cycle as NAD+.

Now in the Krebs cycle, it is ready to take electrons again.

What provides the information for cell growth and function?

tiny-mole [99]

Answer – DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid)
The DNA provides the information for cell growth and function of all known living organisms. It also carries the information for their development and reproduction. Most of the DNA is located in the cell nucleus (in this case, called nuclear DNA), but some amount of DNA are also contained in the mitochondria (in this case, called mitochondrial DNA)
