C. <span>more producers than consumers 

</span><span>Because for example one large eagle needs lots of small sparrows to eat. There is usually a food pyramid so for example you could display it along the lines of 1,000 worms are eaten by 20 sparrows which are eaten by 1 eagle. Its just the way things are. It is a fine balance. if you went up to two eagles on same land they would run out of food quickly and then would either starve or have to move on and using up all the food doesnt help them so it needs to be in a fine balance. A balanced ecosystem.</span>

Which is a reason that many organisms that have existed in earth have left no fossils?
Lapatulllka [165]
Many of the organisms that had existed on the earth left no fossils because most of them can not meet the conditions that must be fulfilled before fossils can form. For fossils formation to occur, the organism soft tissue must decay leaving behind the hard part [majorly bone] in the sediment. Overtime, layers of sediment have to build up and pressed down on the buried remains. As time goes on, water and mineral seeped into the remains and form crystals.

1. The movements of energy and nutrients through living systems are different because (1 point)
mariarad [96]

1. Answer;

A. energy flows in one direction and nutrients recycle.

Explanation;

-The movements of energy and nutrients through living systems are different because the energy flows in one direction and nutrients recycle.

-Energy is transferred between organisms in one direction in a food chain, but that interconnected food chains make a food web.

-Most ecosystems get their energy from the Sun. Producers can use sunlight to make usable energy by converting it into chemical energy or food. Consumers get some of that energy when they eat producers, they pass some of the energy to other consumers when they are fed on.

2. Answer;

Nitrogen fixation.

Nitrogen fixation depends on bacteria.

Explanation;

Nitrogen fixation is the process by which nitrogen is taken from its stable gas form (N2) in air and then converted into other nitrogen compounds (such as ammonia, nitrate and nitrogen dioxide) useful for other chemical processes.

-The nitrogen fixing bacteria are microorganism capable of converting atmospheric nitrogen into forms usable by plants. They include the free-living bacteria, which includes cyanobacteria, azotobacter etc. and others such as mutualistic bacteria such as Rhizobium.

How are oxygen and nutrients delivered to the cells of the body
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
Once Oxygen reaches the blood via the lungs, it is taken in by a protein known as haemoglobin (Hb) in the red blood cells. Oxygen then binds to a heme group located within a subunit of the protein (Hb). A single heme group can bind 1 oxygen molecule, there are 4 heme groups all together meaning 4 oxygen molecules forming Oxyhaemoglobin. Oxygen is then diffused into local tissue by the Haemoglobin. - this was rushed sorry if it doesnt make alot of sense hope it helps tho
