In the desert food web shown below, which of the following best describes the transfer of energy between cacti and mule deer?
fgiga [73]
The correct option is B.
In the ecosystem, energy flows from one trophic level to the other. The first trophic level is that of the producers which use the energy of the sun to produce their own food. Out of the energy obtained from the sun by the producers only about 3% of it is converted into food products. The second trophic level is made up of the herbivores and the omnivores which eat the plant. Only about 10% of the energy from the plant is transferred to the animals in the second trophic level. These second trophic level animals will also transfer about 10% of the energy they obtain to the animals in the third trophic level when they are eaten. Thus, it can be seen that the energy that is transferred in the ecosystem is gradually reducing from one trophic level to another.

________ is the backup energy molecule that can be rapidly converted to ATP in active skeletal muscle.
umka2103 [35]

Hai :3

What is the backup energy molecule that can be rapidly converted to ATP in active skeletal muscle?

The answer would be D. Phosphocreatine, because phosphocreatine plays a major role on energetic homeostasis in both active skeletal and cardiac muscles. Phosphocreatine is basically creatine but phosphorylated, and that is why it has such a name. It has the role of turning ADP (adenosine diphosphate) into ATP (adenosine triphosphate).

Remember, ATP is the currency of life! That is what my biology teacher taught me.
