Why is biodiversity important to the stability of food webs

Biology

SashulF [63]3 years ago

Answer:

The interactions between the many microorganisms, plants and animals is referred to as Biodiversity.

A food web or food chain is a sequence of who eats whom. A simplified sequence involves sunlight, plants, herbivore, omnivore and/or carnivore.

Plants generate food from sunlight, herbivores eat plants, carnivores herbivores, omnivores eat both carnivores, herbivores and plants.

  • Man is an omnivore. Some animals such as bear or fish also belong to this category.
  • Lion is an example of a carnivore.
  • Cow and rabbit are examples of a herbivores.
  • All plants are at the bottom of the food chain large plants, tree plants, shrubs or even microscopic plants like plankton (the small and microscopic organisms drifting or floating in the sea or fresh water, consisting chiefly of diatoms, protozoans, small crustaceans, and the eggs and larval stages of larger animals.)

So the biodiversity is important to the stability food webs because, the total nutrient uptake of the multitrophic community, is depends on vertical diversity (i.e. food web's maximum trophic level) and structure (i.e. distributions of species and their abundances and metabolic rates across trophic levels).

Multitrophic community is a community involving species of different trophic levels of the same food chain.

Answer:

Biodiversity boosts ecosystem productivity where each species, no matter how small, all have an important role to play. For example, A larger number of plant species means a greater variety of crops. Greater species diversity ensures natural sustainability for all life forms.

Explanation:

As food web complexity increases, there is less stability in the population of the different species, causing as a result, biodiversity fluctuations in a more rapid and frequent way and it is  the variability among living organisms from all sources, including terrestrial, marine, and other aquatic ecosystems and the ecological complexes of which they are part; this includes diversity within species, between species, and of ecosystems.

If glucose is not the energy of the cell, what is? how does glucose relate to this?
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Adenosine triphoshate(ATP) is the energy currency of the cell.

Explanation:

Glucose is the Stored energy which is formed by the Glycogen. At the time when the energy is required glycogen is converted into glucose while, ATP is the energy which is ready to use. In aerobic conditions, Glucose produces about 30 ATP molecules. ATP molecule consists of HIGH ENERGY PHOSPHATE BONDS which are broken down when energy is required.

The same agricultural practices are used in every country of the world.
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Well you already know the answer is false but I want to elaborate on this for other people who have the same / similar question.

The main source of meat, milk and eggs in most, if not all, countries are Factory-Farms, which are highly abusive, cruel industries that provide meat to around 99% of business I assume haha. A lot of businesses that claim to use "humane" practices of getting meat, dairy and eggs are not true, there is really no human way to get meat or dairy (you can humanely get eggs though factory farms don't) you can read more about this stuff on SentientMedia (graphic content warning)

Farms around the world though use different ways of harvesting (by hand, by machine etc.) planting, different kinds of crops, different ways of waters, what kind of land they plant their crops in.

Hope this helps

have a nice day((:

Centrosome is the region of chromosome where two sister chromatids are connected.
Zinaida [17]

False, that is a close answer and can be easily confused with the right answer which is "Centromere" it is the specialized region of the chromosome where two sister chromatids are most closely attached.

The centrosome is like the organization center in the process of cell division. Has two centrioles.
