How can changes in trophic levels affect an ecosystem’s health and stability?

Biology
1 answer:
arsen [322]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Changes in the basal levels that are on the bottom of the food chain.

Explanation:

Trophic levels are represented by steps in the food chain. In a simplified diagram, the first basal level is represented by primary producer organisms that include plants and algae. The herbivores are localized in the second place, while in the final levels it is possible to find carnivores and predatory species. It is well known that the changes in the basal trophic levels of this chain (i.e., changes in the first and the second levels) may alter the equilibrium of the food chain and consequently have effects on the stability of the ecosystem.

In a food chain 200 kg of wheat is fed on by 18 kg of mice which in turn are eaten by 1kg of hawk. What is the percentage energy
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

0.1% of energy

Explanation:

Energy flow: From the whole quantity of energy that reaches the earth's surface, autotroph organisms or producers absorb only 0.1 or 1%.

From the input of solar energy begins a unidirectional energy flow through all the organisms in the ecosystem, from autotrophs to heterotrophs, until it is dissipated in the environment.  

At each trophic level occurs an energy transfer to the next, with only 10% being usable in each of them. This assessment is called "The 10% rule". As a general rule, only about 10% of the energy stored as biomass at one trophic level, per unit time, ends up as biomass at the next trophic level, in the same unit of time.

If wheat transferred 10% of the energy to mice, and of that 10% mice transferred 10% of the energy to hawk, then the percentage of energy transferred from the first trophic level to the third equals 0.1%.

10% (1st TL-2nd TL) / 10% (2nd TL - 3rd TL) = 0.1% (1stTL - 3rd TL)

<em>TL = Trophic level           </em>

The cooperative activity of drugs such as beta-lactam antibiotics and clavulanic acid, a beta-lactamase inhibitor, is known as
QveST [7]

Answer:

a. synergism

Explanation:

When two different drugs inhibit a single biochemical pathway of microbes less quantity of each drug is required in combination to produce the effect than when used separately. This effect is called synergistic interaction of drugs.

Both beta-lactam antibiotics such as penicillin and cephalosporin and clavulanic acid serve as beta-lactamase inhibitors and inhibit the beta-lactamase-producing bacteria. Therefore, beta-lactam antibiotics and clavulanic acid are used in combination to control these enteric bacteria.

Rna primers must be present on which strand during dna synthesis?
Tanya [424]

Answer:Both on the leading strand and on each okazaki fragments of the lagging strand.

Explanation:

A primer is a short single-stranded RNA nucleotide that initiate DNA synthesis at the replication fork. Because DNA polymerase can not initiate replication on it own short strand of RNA primer synthesized by an enzyme RNA primase is needed to initiate DNA polynucleotide synthesis.

RNA primer is present on both leading and lagging strand.

RNA primer of about 10 nucleotides long are present on the leading strand and on each okazaki fragments on the lagging strand to initiate replication. The RNA primer is removed and replaced by DNA nucleotides by DNA polymerase.
