How might research on the flow of matter and energy through ecosystems be helpful to creating a colony on mars?

Biology

spayn [35]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

This research could help determine how efficient energy and matter transfer is through the ecosystem. Currently, it is known that this transfer is very inefficient with a mere 10% energy transfer captured in biomass from one trophic level to another. Most of the energy is lost to the environment mainly as heat energy.

It is, therefore, critical that research determines ways of drastically enhance this efficiency so as to be able to colonise Mars. It will be required that whatever humans grow/rear on Mars in small modified fields translate into a high transfer of energy when consumed by humans. This makes it tenable to sustain humans on the distant planet.

Cellular respiration is the process that take place in the mitochondrion of a cell, it involves use of glucose from photosynthesis to produce energy in form of ATP and formation of CO2 and water. In this case, the Carbon dioxide formed passively diffuses out of the cell and Oxygen is pumped in and forces CO2 out. In this process oxygen acts as a electron acceptor.
