Answer:
The energy flow in the ecosystem decreases as it flows from one trophic level to the next trophic level. Only 10% of the energy will transfer to the next trophic level and the remaining energy is lost in the other metabolic process.
The energy flow in the case of the grassland can be shown by the trophic relationship of the organisms. The sun is the primary source of the energy that are absorbed by the plants through the photosynthesis process. The cattle acts as herbivores will consume the plants energy by directly feeding on them. The ranch should be protected from the other animals that feeds on cattle and they are known as carnivorves.
Resource partitioning
Resource partitioning refers to differences in resource use
between species regardless of the origin of the differences. Similar species
can coexist in the same ecological community without one pushing the others to
extinction through competition. Species compete for the same resources which
include nutrients and habitats which are the raw materials needed by organisms
to grow, live, and reproduce. For the question given above, the divergence in
lizards is an example of resource partitioning.
The minimum legth of a codon could be two. If it was only one of the 6 nitrogeneous bases in a codon, we'd only have 6 possible amino acids. If we have, though, a combination of two amino acids out of the 6 nitrogeneous bases, we would have then 36 possible combinations (6 possibilities for the first position × 6 possibilities for the second position) that would allow the existence of the 20 different amino acids.
In the human case, for example, with only 4 nitrogeneous bases, a combination of two amino acids would be insufficient (4×4=16) for the 20 amino acids.
