Some man-made fibres, too, are derived from naturally occurring polymers. For instance, rayon and acetate, two of the first man-made fibres ever to be produced, are made of the same cellulose polymers that make up cotton, hemp, flax, and the structural fibres of wood.
Answer:
The assimilation of the primary consumer is 5000 kcal/m2/yr, option C.
Explanation:
From the information in the question, the Net Production Efficiency, NPE can be calculated using 100Cp/AS.
Where CP is the consumer productivity and AS is the Assimilation.
Therefore, 20 = 100 x 1000/AS
AS = 100,000/20 = 5000 kcal/m2/yr. Option C.
