<u>Answer</u>: C) 10%.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • The cow will get only 10% energy from the hay as the transfer of energy from a lower to a higher trophic level follows the ten percent law.
  • According to the ten percent law of energy transfer, only 10 percent of the total energy gets transferred to the next trophic level in a food chain.
  • For example, if the hay had 100 joules of energy, the cow will get only 10% of 100 J i.e 10 J energy.
  • The reason why only ten percent energy is transferred is because the rest is lost in the form of heat in the atmosphere.

Which of the following is NOT a process that drives the carbon cycle?
stiks02 [169]

"Ammonification" is NOT a process that drives the carbon cycle.

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The organisms circulate carbon-di-oxide in carbon cycle by going through respiration, decomposition, sedimentation, and photosynthesis process but not ammonification. Basically the actual source of nitrogen is agricultural, when a plant or animal passes or an animal disperses waste.

In the remains, bacteria or fungi turn the organic nitrogen back into ammonium, a cycle called ammonisation or mineralisation. Then the micro-organisms generate metabolically required energy from organic nitrogen oxidation into ammonium. Ammonium is then essential for assimilation and absorption into amino acids or for use in other metabolic applications.
