Answer:

- Refining its theories and laws.

- Solving various puzzles.

- Establishing more accurate measurements of constants.

Explanation:

Thomas Kuhn, the famous American philosopher as well as physicist in his famous work titled 'The Structure of Scientific Revolution published in 1962 proposed the revolutionary concept of 'paradigm shift'.

According to Kuhn, a prevailing paradigm is accepted and revealed by scientists regularly through observation, speculation, and examination. It involves 'refining or improving the theories and laws proposed in the existing paradigm', 'solving the puzzles associated with it' and 'the establishment of more accurate measurements of constants'. These three steps assist in challenging the existing paradigm and anomalies associated with it that eventually opens the door for a shift in the existing paradigm(if the challenges related to anomalies are not sorted out effectively).

4. Solar energy is taken in by producers and ultimately is passed to top consumers. The path this energy takes is
Reil [10]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Pyramid of energy is also referred to as food pyramid and it's a model used to depict the flow of energy from one trophic level or feeding level to the next in an ecosystem. It's a diagram that compares the energy used by organisms at each trophic level of the food chain. The pyramid of energy must never be inverted or turned upside down.

The units used in the construction of pyramids of energy is kilocalories (kcal) or energy per area per time (Jm-²year-¹).

A list of the types of organisms in an eco pyramid are;

I. Producers: these are autotrophs or self-feeders such as plants.

II. Primary (top) consumers: these are herbivores that typically feed on plants such as a goat or deer.

III. Secondary consumers: these consists of carnivores that typically feed or eat flesh such as lion, tiger, cheetah, etc.

IV. Tertiary consumers: these are higher predators such as humans that aren't normally fed on by other organisms in the ecosystem.

In Biology, producers are the living organisms that are capable of manufacturing their own food and as such can provide energy or food for the other living organisms (consumers) in a food web. Thus, producers are mainly known as the foundation of a food web (chain) and are at the top.

A producer gets energy from the sun and converts it into food. The cells found in producers are capable of converting the energy received directly from the sun into food through a process generally referred to as photosynthesis, converting carbon dioxide from the air, water from the soil, minerals and energy from the sun into organic nutrients.
