Why can’t food chains go on forever?

Biology
1 answer:
bearhunter [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Because at some point in that food chain, the energy consumption has it's limit, and the predator will not have anything to hunt it. There is a limited amount of energy in a food chain that can go around, and once you reach the predator, that energy doesn't quite run out but it hits that limit where the chain has to repeat itself.

Si se aparean especies diferentes como por ejemplo el cruce entre caballos y burros; podemos afirmar que si llegan a tener desce
White raven [17]

Answer:

El híbrido va a ser esteril.

Explanation:

En la cruza entre dos especies distintas, cuando ocurre, existen distintos mecanismos de aislamiento reproductivo, que son barreras que inhiben o interrumpen el flujo génico entre especies distintas. Es decir que no habrá exito reproductivo de estas cruzas. Se trata de caracteres biológicos propios de cada especie que previenen la reproducción con otras especies.

Estos mecanismos de aislamiento reproductivo pueden ser precigóticos o postcigóticos.  

  1.Pre-copulatorios o pre-cigóticos:

  • Ecológico o por aislamiento de hábitat;
  • Estacional o temporal;
  • Sexual o etológico;
  • Mecánico;
  • Por incompatibilidad de gametas.  

  2. Post-copulatorios o cigóticos:

  • Inviabilidad del híbrido;
  • Esterilidad del híbrido;
  • Híbrido con viabilidad o fertilidad disminuido;
  • Interacciones citoplasmáticas.

La mula es producto de la cruza entre dos especies distintas: una yegua (Equus ferus caballus) y un burro (Equus africanus asinus). Es un ejemplo de la accion de mecanismo poscigótico, en el cual se forma un híbrido viable esteril. Este ejemplar puede nacer, crecer y sobrevivir, pero que no puede producir gametas funcionales, por lo cual no puede reproducirse.

Match the following terms and definitions. 1. an organism that can make its own food commensalism 2. a symbiotic relationship be
Dmitriy789 [7]

Terms matched with the right definitions.  

1. An organism that can make its own food – Autotroph

2. A symbiotic relationship between two organisms in which one species benefits and no effect is apparent to the other species – Commensalism.  

3. A cell that has a membrane-bound nucleus and/or organelles as its major characteristic -Eukaryote.  

4. The study of organisms that are too small to be seen with the naked eye - Microbiology.  

5.  A disease-causing organism - A germ pathogen.  

6. A one- or few-celled organism with chromosomes; may have characteristics of both animals and plants – Protist.


An autotroph is an organism that produces its own food from simple substances available in its environment. Autotrophs usually use inorganic chemical reactions or light energy in producing their food and are usually the producers in a food chain. Examples of autotrophs are plants and algae.


Commensalism is a type of relationship between organisms of two species where one organism benefits from the relationship and the other organism is not affected by it (neither benefits nor harmed).
