It goes into your intestine where it’s absorbed. From there it passes into your bloodstream. Once in the blood insulin helps glucose get to your cells

Answer:

a. Approximately 1,003 weasels, 3,345 mice and 16,729 wheat plants per one hawk are in the ecosystem

Explanation:

The percentage of the weasel population eaten by a hawk = 30%

The percentage of the mouse population eaten by a weasel = 30%

The percentage of the wheat plants population eaten by a mice = 20%

a. One hawk needs 330 kJ of energy per day, which gives 330 kJ × 365 = 120,450 kJ per year

Let 'x' represent the number of weasels to support one hawk, we have;

0.3 × x = 120,450 kJ/year/(400 kJ) = 301.125

x = 301.125/0.3 = 1,003.75

The number of weasels required to support one hawk per year ≈ 1,003 weasels

The total weasels ≈ 1,003

ii) The number of mice needed, y = x/0.3 = 1,003.75/0.3 = 3,345.8 $\overline 3$

The total mice, y ≈ 3,345 mice

iii) The number of wheat flower needed, z = y/0.2

∴ The number of wheat flower needed, z = 3,345.8 $\overline 3$ /0.2 ≈ 16,729.1 $\overline 6$

The total wheat plants ≈ 16,729.

What are Nitrogen Bases?

LenaWriter [7]

A nitrogenous base, or nitrogen-containing base, is an organic molecule with a nitrogen atom that has the chemical properties of a base. The main biological function of a nitrogenous base is to bond nucleic acids together. A nitrogenous base owes its basic properties to the lone pair of electrons of a nitrogen atom.

Why was it important for Miller and Urey to sterilized the apparatus to kill any bacteria in it?

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Having bacteria would produce organic molecules and defeat the whole purpose of the experiment which is to make organic molecules from inorganic molecules. The experiment was supposed to demonstrate the formation of the first organic molecules that initiated life on primordial earth. It is believed that lightning powered the formation of the first simple amino acids, like glycine, from the primordial atmosphere which was mainly composed of carbon dioxide and methane.

Why algae in the ocean can have a very high NPP and a very low amount of stored biomass

USPshnik [31]

The algae in the ocean have a very high Net Primary Productivity (NPP) and a very low amount of store biomass. This is because THE GROWTH RATE OF ALGAE IN THE OCEAN IS HIGH. The store biomass is low because THE PRIMARY CONSUMERS FEED ON THESE ALGAE THUS LOWERING THE BIOMASS AMOUNT. The production of biomass is related to the NPP.
