Answer:

Use the rule that 10% of the energy is transferred between layers.

Explanation:

Energy is transferred between layers of a food pyramid. That means that the  producers at the bottom of the pyramid (e.g. green plants) provide energy to the primary consumers (e.g. rabbits), which are eaten by and provide energy to the secondary consumers (e.g. foxes).

However, very little of the energy is actually transferred to the next layer, roughly 10%. So an easy way to calculate the energy available at each level is to calculate 10% of what was available from the previous level. So if there is 600 kJ available from the primary consumers, then 60 kJ are transferred to the secondary consumers

) what basic principles of antibody-mediated immunity are utilized in an elisa assay
Komok [63]
<span>The most crucial principle of ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) is a highly specific antibody-antigen interaction.</span>
ELISA is a biochemical technique used to detect the presence of an antibody or an antigen in the biological sample. Simply described, in an ELISA, an antigen is immobilized on a solid surface and then a specific antibody is applied over the surface so that it can bind to the antigen. The antibody is usually linked to an enzyme, and in the final step, a substrate for that enzyme is added. The enzyme can convert it to some detectable signal, most commonly a color change. <span>Medical usage of ELISA is in the diagnosis of HIV infection, pregnancy tests, measurement of cytokines…</span>

If a sample of DNA has 16% adenine(A) then what is the percent of guanine?
Anastasy [175]
39%. Adenine would have the same percentage as Thymine, meaning it would he 32% A and T and then subtract that from 100 giving you 72 divide that by 2 and you get part Guanine and part Cytosine.

postnew [5]

The rose population would decrease because the bees would need more food. Since the skunk has more food, it would increase and the eagle population would probably increase too because of more access to skunks. The eagle interpretation may be true unless the eagle is perceived as a scavenger. Then the population would most likely stay the same. The sun would stay the same because it is an abiotic factor in an ecosystem. your welcome fam
