Which of the following is not true concerning the flow of energy through an ecosystem? a. Most solar energy is used in photosynt
hesis. b. Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are performed by plants. c. Not all solar energy is used for photosynthesis. d. Most of the energy from photosynthesis flows out as heat.
D. Most of the energy from photosynthesis flows out as heat
Explanation;
Energy flow is the amount of energy that moves through a food chain in a given ecosystem.
Producers such as green plants in a ecosystem convert energy from the the sun into carbon bonds, such as those found in the sugar glucose through the process of photosynthesis.
The amount of chemical energy storied as nutrients in the bodies and wastes of organisms flows through ecosystems from one trophic level to the next and through this flow energy also is lost as heat. And the chemical energy available to the succeeding feeding level decreases.
The answer is C. Hyperthermia. Pneumonia, frostbite, and hypothermia are all caused by the body getting abnormally cold, while hyperthermia is the condition of having a body temperature greatly above the normal temperature. Hope this helps!
