Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

a) Negative primary production

b) Net primary production

c) Secondary production

d) Negative secondary production

e) Positive primary production

The correct answer is b.

The total amount of chemical energy produced by autotrophs, such as plants and phytoplankton, is called gross primary production. The energy that remains after plants use some of the gross primary production to fuel their own metabolism is known as <u>net primary production</u>.

Explanation:

Net Primary Production (NPP) is the value that results from the difference between gross production and respiration of the primary producers themselves. It manifests as growth and / or reproduction. It represents the matter and energy available for the next trophic level, that is, the net primary production is what is left after subtracting the energy that plants use for their metabolism or maintenance (such as breathing, tissue construction and reproduction).

Which natural resource does Australia produce more of than any other country in the world? oil natural gas gold bauxite
liraira [26]
<span>The correct answer is gold. That's why it has reserves of almost 10 000 tonnes of gold which accounts to almost a fifth of the entire world gold reserves. It is way ahead of the second placed South Africa that produces only 6 000, and Russia that does 5000. It has been going down in recent years, but it's nothing significant and will likely stay first for years to come.</span>

What are proteins made up of?
Nesterboy [21]
<h2> What are proteins made of?</h2><h3>Proteins are made up of smaller building blocks called amino acids, joined together in chains. There are 20 different amino acids. Some proteins are just a few amino acids long, while others are made up of several thousands. These chains of amino acids fold up in complex ways, giving each protein a unique 3D shape. Some, like keratin, the hair protein, form long fibres. Others, like haemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen around your body, are roughly spherical.</h3>
