Dissipate actually means loss or disappearance of energy.
There is energy flow taking place in the ecosystem.In this energy flow,initially plants (producers/first tropic level) make use of solar energy for synthesizing food which is eaten by primary consumers(second tropic level).
During this consumption only ten percent of the total energy produced is transferred from one level to the next. Remaining energy is lost in the form of heat to the ecosystem due to certain metabolic processes occurring in the organism like respiration,growth etc.
Hence this loss of energy in the form of heat to the ecosystem is known as energy dissipation.
Answer:
more cell types are needed to perform specialized functions in multicellular organisms
Explanation:
Cells in a multicellular organism differentiate to produce more cells that perform specialized functions. Each cell type in a multicellular organism has special features that enable it to perform a particular function effectively. In plants, cell differentiation occurs at the stem and root. The meristematic cells differentiate into either an epidermal, parenchymal or a vascular tissue depending on location.
Magnetism is the force exerted by magnets when they attract or repel each other. Magnetism is caused by the motion of electric charges. Every substance is made up of tiny units called atoms. Each atom has electrons, particles that carry electric charges.
Answer:
DNA contains four types of nucleotide. These are adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine. Uracil is the fifth and final nucleotide but it is only present in certain forms of RNA. So back to the question nucleotides are the basic structural unit of nucleic acids.
