Answer:
Trophic level
Consumer
Producer
Explanation:
All living organisms require energy for their life processes, which they obtain by taken in food. In an ecosystem, this food is derived when organisms feed on each other. This process that eventually leads to a flow of energy within organisms is called FOOD CHAIN.
A food chain or food web always begins with a unique set of organisms called PRODUCERS. Producers are autotrophs capable of harvesting light energy from the sun and use it to produce their food (chemical) in a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS. Other organisms called HETEROTROPHS feed on these producers to derive energy. In ecology, they are called CONSUMERS. Other consumers feed on the previous ones also to get energy.
Hence, each step of the food chain is occupied by organisms that obtain and store energy by feeding on another organism. This step is called TROPHIC LEVEL.
In a nutshell, a PRODUCER (usually plants) starts the food chain/web due to its photosynthetic ability. This producer gets eaten by an organism called CONSUMER and in the process, the energy and nutrient stored in the producers flows to the consumer. Another consumers feeds on the previous one and the energy keeps flowing. Each step of the food chain occupied by an organism that stores and transfers this energy is called TROPHIC LEVEL.
Answer:
Energy stored in glucose molecules is transferred to adenosine triphosphate. During cellular respiration when glucose reacts with oxygen, carbon dioxide and water are formed.
The energy released by glucose molecules is stored in bonds in the phosphate groups of the adenosine triphosphate molecules. After this, energy is released when ATP is converted into ADP and inorganic PO4- groups.
When ADP and phosphate group join together to form ATP energy is stored. A glucose molecule forms 36 to 38 ATP during respiration.
Answer:
Firstly, we can use a DNA probe to identify the particular antibody gene that we are looking for.
We can cut the gene at specific restriction sites by using specific restriction enzymes.
The same restriction enzymes should be used to cut the DNA from the specific site in the maize plant.
The gene can be introduced and ligated in the maize genome by using DNA ligase.
The recombinant DNA can be places in the Maize cop plant.
