Answer:
Elemental Carbon is NOT a product.
Somatic cells are every cell in the body.
Gametes are sex cells.
Explanation:
Percentage w/v means that weight of solute present in 100 ml of a solution. Hence, 15% w/v means that 15 gram of solute per 100 ml of solution.
Hence, for 2 L (or 2000 mL) preparation the amount of mass will be calculated as follows.

= 300 g
Thus, we can conclude that weight of Tris-HCL required is 300 g.
I have never heard of the four phases of research, but I know that the scientific method can be summarized in four steps.
1. Observe something in nature.
2. Make a hypothesis (prediction) based on that observation.
3. Design and undergo and experiment to test the validity of your hypothesis.
4. Draw a conclusion about your hypothesis based on the results of your experiment.
Answer:
Idealized pyramid of net production uses the typical values of 1% for the conversion of sunlight energy to net primary production and 10% for trophic efficiency.
Explanation:
in real ecosystems, trophic efficiencies usually vary from about 5% to about 20%. As a result, net production diagrams for ecosystems have a pyramid shape. Two key factors explain why trophic efficiencies are relatively low, and thus why net production diagrams are shaped like pyramids. First, not all the organisms at one trophic level are eaten by organisms at the next trophic level. For example, not every plant is eaten by herbivores, and not every herbivore is eaten by carnivores. Second, because of the bioenergetics of animals, not all the food an animal eats is converted to new biomass. Significant amounts of energy are lost in feces, used in cellular respiration, and lost to the environment as heat.
