B. A balanced

Explanation:

In a balanced ecosystem decomposers breakdown dead or decaying organisms and they return nutrients to the soil to be used by plants.

A balanced ecosystem maintains an equilibrium between the biotic component and abiotic component of the system.

  • The nutrient cycling between biotic component and abiotic part of the ecosystem is kept going by decomposers.
  • Decomposers are organisms that breaks down dead and decaying organisms.
  • They release the nutrients trapped in them in the process.
  • The nutrient in the soil is in its abiotic state.
  • When plants takes up the nutrient, it enters back into the biotic component.
  • Decomposers helps to maintain the balance in the ecosystem.

An easy way to calculate the amount of energy available at each level is to
Contact [7]

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 happens to a potassium atoms electrons when it becomes an ion?
Scrat [10]
The alkali metals in group l of the periodic table all have a single electron in the outermost shell. These metals form covalent bonds with for example the halogens, which have 7 electrons in their outer shell.
When the alkali metal halide, such as KCl is dissolved in water, it dissociates into ions. The K atom loses the single electron, and therefore has a positive charge. In turn, the chloride atom gains the electron and becomes the negatively charged chloride ion.

vredina [299]

Answer: Aerobic respiration will not take place and the animal will lose large amounts of ATP.

Explanation:

Mitochondria is the powerhouse that converts product of glycolysis that occurs in the cytoplasm into energy and release carbon dioxide as a byproduct. In the presence of oxygen (aerobic), products of glycolysis such as pyruvate enters the mitochondria, joins the kreb cycle and the electron transport chain yielding a large amount of energy or ATP.

Aerobic respiration that yield large amounts of ATP strictly occus in the mitochondrial matrix whereas anearobic respiration occurs in the cytoplasm.

Flock X Flock Y Flock Z Total Pieces of Food Eaten 57 153 90 Food Percentage* % % % Simulated Number of Birds in Flock for 2nd G
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: The percentage would be 19%, 51% and 30%.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of food eaten by X = 57

Number of food eaten by Y = 153

Number of food eaten by Z = 90

Total number of food eaten = 57+153+90=300

So, Food percentage of flock X = \dfrac{57}{300}\times 100=19\%

Food percentage of flock Y = \dfrac{153}{300}\times 100=51\%

Food percentage of flock Z = \dfrac{90}{300}\times 100=30\%

Hence, the percentage would be 19%, 51% and 30%.
