What is true of efficiency of energy transfer in an ecosystem is that the less energy the organism requires the more efficient the nergy transfer - c.

The reason for this is the fact that with large animals and organisms which need a lot of energy, there is always a surplus which gets lost.

<h3>Answer;</h3>

C. The less energy the organism requires, the more efficient the energy transfer.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>All living organisms need energy in one form or another since energy is required to drive metabolic process in various metabolic pathways, which organisms rely on for survival.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Food chains show how energy flows in an ecosystem from the lowest trophic level to the highest level </u></em>and also how efficiently organisms acquire this energy, use it and how much energy remains for use or how much energy is transferred to the next trophic level.
  • The less energy an organism requires, the more efficient the energy transfer as more energy is conserved.

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Due to lack of nutrients in the soil.

Explanation:

Within a few years the forest was dying because there is no nutrient is present in the soil which can trigger the growth and development of the sol. The fallen parts of trees such as branches, tree and leaves etc are decomposed by decomposers such as bacteria and fungi which turn the fallen materials into nitrogenous materials which can be used by the plant for its growth and development.

Before the presence of living organisms earth was a very different place match each fact about about Precambrian earth to the sp
Stolb23 [73]

The correct matches are:

- Atmosphere - Oxygen spilled into this sphere from ocean waters;

The majority of the oxygen in thee Precambrian Earth was not in the atmosphere, but instead it was in the ocean waters. With the emergence of life, large portions of this oxygen went into the atmosphere as it was released as a waste product.

- Biosphere - Cyanobacteria started to emerge as a life form;

The cyanobacteria were one of the earliest life forms. They were producers, and started to use the process of photosynthesis in order to produce food. The usage of this process caused lot of changes on the Earth later on.

- Hydrosphere - Oceans contained far less salt than they do today;

The rocks and minerals in the Precambrian Earth were not weathering and eroding in the manner they are now. Instead they were kept compact for much longer periods, influencing the mixture of of different components with the water as well in meantime.

- Lithosphere - Oxidation in rocks and minerals was not possible;

Because there was way to small amount of oxygen in the atmosphere, very close to 0%, the oxidation of rocks and minerals was not possible, as the oxygen is the gas that causes this process.

Which allele combination represents a male who has an X-linked recessive disorder?
stiv31 [10]
Without the answer options I cannot tell you the answer exactly, however X linked disorders are found only on X chromosomes and are indicated by a lowercase letter next to the X. Xr would be an example of the notation. A male has one X chromosome and one Y chromosome, where females have two X chromosomes.
The allele combination of a male with an x linked recessive disorder would look something like XrY.
