Answer:
1. 20 units
2. 4 units
Explanation:
In an ecosystem, energy is transferred from one organism occupying a trophic level to another as they feed on one another. The amount of energy that is being transferred as the chain progresses is called ECOLOGICAL EFFICIENCY. According to this question, the ecological efficiency at each trophic level of the ecosystem is 20%. This means that about 20% of energy units will be transferred to the next trophic level.
If the green plants of the ecosystem capture 100 units of energy, the amount of energy that will be available to support herbivores (plant eaters) is: 20% × 100units i.e. 20/100 × 100 = 20 units.
Also, the amount of energy that will be available to support carnivores subsequently will be 20% of 20 units i.e. 20/100 × 20 = 4 units.
Reaction. I hope this helped have a great day.
Scientists always look for patterns.
When analyzing data, this is essential to finding out important information.
Answer:
Chemoautotrophs.
Explanation:
Autotrophs may be defined as the organism that can prepare their own food with the help of chemical and light. Two types of autotrophs are chemoautotroph and photoautotrophs.
Chemoautotrophs are the organisms that can prepare their own food with the help of chemicals. The bacteria living around deep sea and hot water vents are considered as chemoautotrophs because they prepare their food with the help of carbon present in their surroundings.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
Your answer is D----------
