Why is only a small amount of the energy stored in food available to the next organism in a food web or chain?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Zanzabum3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

There is only a small amount of energy stored in food for the next organism because the other organisms have to share their food with other animals which will limit the amount of food if that makes sense. (Basically the primary and secondary consumers competing each other for food)

Which species is the conjugate base of an ammonium ion, NH4+?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The conjugated base of ammonium ion NH_{4}^{+} is NH_{5}^{2+}

Explanation:

A conjugate base is obtained by addition of proton H^{+} . In order to get the conjugate base of NH_{4}^{+}, we need to add a proton to ammonium ion. We will get NH_{5}^{2+} after addition of proton to ammonium ion.

Hence, the conjugate base of NH_{4}^{+} is NH_{5}^{2+}

Hurry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Match the terms to the correct descriptions.
viva [34]

The type of energies or the words in this item are matched with the given descriptions. The lists below are as follow.<span>

<span>a. The word that best match this description is MECHANICAL energy. In most sources, mechanical energy is described to be that energy that is possessed by an object with respect to its motion and position. </span>

<span>b. The answer to this item is LIGHT energy. This type of energy can be created through different means (i.e. radiation, chemical, and mechanical). This is the energy emitted by hot objects such as the sun, lasers, and bulbs.</span>

<span>c. The type of energy that is transferred by the movement of the electrons through a conductor is ELECTRICAL energy. The movement of the electrons along the line is commonly called as the current. Moreover, this is also a type of kinetic energy because of the movement of the electrons. Thus, the faster the movement of the electron the higher is the energy. </span>

<span>d. The type of energy that is stored in batteries or food is CHEMICAL energy. This type of energy is that which is stored in the bonds of the different chemical compounds. This is also most commonly released when reaction between elements/compounds happen.</span>

<span>e. The energy that travels through vibrations and waves is SOUND energy. As given above, this is associated with the movement or vibrations of the matter. This is also a type of mechanical energy because of the waves produced through to the vibrations.</span>

<span>f. The type of energy that is found in the nucleus and atoms is the NUCLEAR energy.  Nuclear reactions most often released this type of energy simultaneous with the generation of heat. </span>

<span>g. The stored energy is called the POTENTIAL energy. The equation for this energy is mgh where h is the height, pertaining to the position of the object. Once the object is released, it will be converted to other forms of energy. </span>

<span>h. The answer to this item is THERMAL energy. This type of energy can be transferred in three different ways: (1) conduction, (2) convection, and (3) radiation.</span></span>
