Answer:

B. A small fraction of the energy is transferred to higher trophic levels, majority stays in the lower trophic levels

Explanation:

Energy transfer between trophic levels is insufficient. When an organism is eaten by another organism, not all of the biomass of prey forms the biomass of the predator. Majority of the energy is released into environment during cellular respiration. Some of the matter also remains undigested and is not used by the predator. Thus, only 10% of energy available at one level is transferred to the next level. So when we keep on moving up in a food chain, energy available keeps on decreasing.

1. Why is diffusion insufficient to meet the oxygen requirements of multicellular organisms like humans?
astraxan [27]

1.   The oxygen requirements of an animal cannot be met by the process of     diffusion as diffusion is a very slow process. To overcome this, multicellular organisms have specialized cells and tissues for performing various necessary functions of the body such as intake of oxygen and food.

2.   What criteria do we use to decide whether something is alive? Any visible movement such as walking, breathing, or growing is generally used to decide whether something is alive or not. However, a living organism can also have movements, which are not visible to the naked eye.

3.   An organism uses outside raw materials mostly in the form of food and oxygen. The raw materials required by an organism can be quite varied depending on the complexity of the organism and its environment.

4.   The various processes essential for maintaining life are nutrition, respiration, transportation, excretion, control and coordination.
