State the importance of wind in ecosystems.​
Volgvan
Wind affects plant growth, reproduction, distribution, death, and ultimately plant evolution. Some of the effects depend on the air boundary layers next to the aerial parts of a plant, across which gas and heat exchanges with the environment occur.

<h2>The rotational motion of the forearm</h2>

Explanation:

  • The two large bones of the forearm, one being the Ulna and the other is radial bone or radius.
  • The Radius is larger in size than the Ulna.
  • Radius is prism shaped, little curved longitudinally long bone.
  • The part of two joints known as elbow and wrist comprised the Radius.
  • Radius link with the capitulum of the humerus at the elbow region.
  • Radius forms a joint at the wrist region with the ulna bone.

For most terrestrial ecosystems, pyramids of numbers, biomass, and energy are essentially the same-they have a broad base and a
GaryK [48]

Answer:

b. at each step, energy is lost from the system as a result of keeping the organisms alive

Explanation:

Generally Ecological pyramids helps to visualise  the structure of Ecosystem.Its diagrammatically showed  the relative amounts of numbers of organisms ,their energy, and  the amount of energy that is converted in living tissue  as usable mass (biomass) at different tropic levels.

Basically, large amount of energy is lost as energy flow from one tropic level to  another in an ecosystem. This can be explained with the second law of thermodynamics;<u>  </u><u>which states that in the conversion of energy from one form to another in a system, there is always a tendency towards disorderliness</u><u>.</u>That is the entropy changes  of  the universe   can never be negative.Relatively  in a biological system, this means that  energy is lost in metabolic process( glycolysis, chemeosmosis, assimilation, growth .......)  as heat, as organisms at one tropic level is consumed  by another at the next level, from the base to the peak of  these pyramids.

The amount of energy transfer efficiency  among the two successive tropic levels is obtained by <u>dividing the energy transfer at present tropic level</u> with<u> the energy transfer at previous tropic levels</u> and<u> mutiply the results by 100%</u> . This known  as Tropic level transfer efficiency(TLTE) .

The lower energy efficiency between successful  present and previous tropic levels  in these pyramids accounts for  the similarities.

Which of the following are substances in plant foods that are not absorbed by the body?
Step2247 [10]

Answer: dietary fiber

Explanation:

The dietary fibers can be defined as those nutrients in the diet which cannot be digested by the gastrointestinal enzymes and the minerals from them are not absorbed by the body. These keep the bowel full after food intake for long. These prevent disease like diabetes as reduces the need for consumption of more food, heart disease and constipation. The fruits, vegetable, legumes, fibers are the sources of dietary fibers.
