Answer:

The hypothesis is the suggested explanation for a phenomenon while the theory is based on facts or tested explanation.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is a suggested explanation, an idea that is presented for argument so it can be tested to see if it is true. The hypothesis is made before any research has been done for it.

a theory is a prooved or tested, unifying, well-substantiated, explanation for a set of verified, proven factors. It is a factual prediction, but a hypothesis is a reasoned explanation.

Thus, the hypothesis is the suggested explanation for a phenomenon while the theory is based on facts or tested explanation.

How much chemical energy (stored as biomass) is available to primary consumers from 10,000 kcal of primary productivity?
atroni [7]
The answer is “d” (1,000 kcal). As the trophic level increases energy is decreases by 10 times that of the previous level. If a system has 10,000 kcal, then the primary consumer have 10 times less (10,000/10) which is 1,000 kcal. The secondary consumers have 100 kcal and the tertiary have 10 kcal. Only 10% of the energy at each trophic level goes on to the next.

Even land that is now very diverse once started out as what?
evablogger [386]

As of right now, the land is pretty spread out. But millions of years ago, like, we're talking dino time, all the land was just one chunk. This chunk was called Pangaea, or Pangea. But before everything split apart into multiple continents, there was just one; a supercontinent. Hope that helps!
