The relationship between the amount of energy available for use and the amount of entropy in a food chain differs between trophi

c levels. Why would the amount of entropy increase from one trophic level to another in a food chain or energy pyramid?

Answer:

Energy is lost at each tropic level as heat and serves to increase entropy.

Explanation:

The energy flow through food chain and food webs follow the second law of thermodynamics. It states that process of energy transfer is not perfect and leads to production of less usable energy than the initial energy.  At each tropic level, only 10 % energy is passed to the next level and rest 90% is lost as heat. Therefore, energy transfer through food chains always ends up with lesser usable energy. The energy lost to the environment in form of heat tends to increase the entropy of the system. The higher the tropic level, the more the heat available to increase entropy.

Based on the seed experiment in the Poop Lab, which seeds do you expect to sprout and grow?
-Dominant- [34]

Based on the seed experiment in the Poop Lab, the seeds that are expected to sprout are the seed in the elephant poop while the seeds in the soil are not expected to sprout.

<h3>What was the Poop Lab?</h3>

The main idea of the Poop Lab is to compare the growth of seeds that have gone through the digestive system of an animal, in this case, an elephant, to a seed that has not.

The seed that had gone through the digestive system was observed to have sprouted but the seeds in the soil did not. This experiment demonstrates the role animals such as elephants play in shaping the ecosystem through seed dispersal.

The seed that passed through the digestive system of the element and then passed out into the poop received enough nutrients for growth.

However, the seed in the soil does not receive adequate nutrients.
