Energy decreases as it moves up the trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level.

What arethe function of ‘slugs’ in the life cycle of cellularslime molds? Given that the slugs are aggregate bodies, what are th
katen-ka-za [31]

When the food is scarce, cellular slime molds aggregate into a mass of cells that behaves as a single unit called a slug.

<h3>What is the importance of slugs in slime molds?</h3>
  • While feeding, the cellular slime molds live as individual, singled-celled organisms. But when the food is scarce and they have to move to new places in search of food, they aggregate in groups of tens of thousands to form multicellular group called slugs.
  • In slug some of the cells contribute to a 2–3 millimeter long stalk, which dries up and dies in the process of formation.
  • In the presence of excess food, slime molds are present as independent amoeboid cells.
  • It is now observed that in the presence of a food source, some farmer amoebae stop feeding and pocket their food for movement in multicellular migration.

PLS HELP THIS IS FOR A GRADE I WILL GIVE BRAINLYEST

Answer:

1) A- a nocturnal schedule, since animals in deserts stay cool during the night.

2) D- individual species evolved different beaks to contribute to genetic variation.

3) D- they will adapt, migrate, or become extinct. An adaptation example is getting shorter fur.

4) D- hunted to extinction. Humans probably valued their unique teeth.

5) C- adapt. If it didn't die, something in its genetics probably caused this.

Brainliest would be really cool, hope this helps! Sorry if any are wrong.

Why are fatty acids better than glycogen for storing large amounts of chemical energy?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

The fatty acids or fats provide a large amount of energy about 9 kcal g⁻¹ than glycogen which provides about t 4 kcal g⁻¹.

This large difference in the calorific value is due to the nature of the fatty acids as these are much more reduced than the glycogen as well as they are stored in the body in anhydrous form due to non-polar triacylglycerols in the adipose cells. The carbohydrates are highly hydrated compounds as they contain polar molecules in their structure which binds the water molecules.

So, the evolution selected the fatty acids over glycogen for the production of the chemical energy.
