Answer:

Option D, might fall, but we cannot know without more information

Explanation:

Complete question

If real GDP falls by 2% while work hours fall by 10%, then labor productivity:

a. falls

b. is unchanged

c. rises

d. might fall, but we cannot know without more information

Solution -

As we know

Productivity is equal to Real GDP/ Total Hours Worked. This means that if working hours of the labor force reduces then the productivity will rise.

Here GDP also falls but compared to the total working hours the fall of GDP is 1/5. Hence, the productivity might fall/rise as compared to the case when neither the GDP nor the working hours were falling.

Hence, option D is correct

Suppose a fox in a food web feeds only on rabbits, squirrels, mice and birds, all of which feed exclusively on plant material. A
Illusion [34]

Answer:

square metres of plant materials required to support the fox = 3650 m²

Explanation:

From the given information:

the daily caloric requirement of the fox = 800  

In a year, we have = 800 kcal × 365 /year = 292,000 kcal/year

Also, only 10% of the energy at a particular trophic level can be passed onto the next.

the net productivity of the plant material = 8000 kcal/m²/yr

So, using 10% of energy at a particular level, the fox only need 80 kcal/m²/yr

The objective is to determine in square meters, how many materials are required to support the fox.

square metres of plant materials required to support the fox = \dfrac{292,000}{80}

= 3650 m²
