From studies and research, I believe the proper question would be:

"How do the animals satisfy their need for water?" or "How long do the animals live?"

Explanation 1:

When studying the desert, asking "Can you buy the animals in pet stores?" is not going to help you find information about the desert because it is not a question to get information about the desert, only information if you just buy it at your local pet shop.

Explanation 2:

Asking "How many offspring do the animals have?" does help us learn about animals, but we are trying to find information on the structure of the desert in which the animals live in. We are not looking for how many children the animals will have because it doesn't fully relate to the question we would be asking.

Side Note: Offsprings mean children.

Which of the following situations accurately describes a difference between a food chain and a food web? Select one:

Natasha2012 [34]

Lets look at your first question. A food chain is a linear (line) relationship between organisms. It shows who eats what and who gets eaten. The energy is passed up the chain from one organisms to the next. A food web is a series of interconnected food chains. It can show one organism being preyed upon by several predators. The answer choice A is really referring to an energy pyramid, but it is true in any ecosystem that only 10% of available energy is passed to the next trophic level. B and C are both true statements as well. D is completely false because 90% of energy is lost, not retained. So with that said, there is more than one correct answer here. I have included a diagram so you can see the difference between the two.

For Question 8, the key to understanding this is that sunlight is the main source of energy for any ecosystem. Plants (autotrophs) use the sunlight to convert it to sugars (glucose) which is a compound that heterotrophs can utilize. This process is called photosynthesis. :-)

Question 9: So in a food chain, you typically start with the producers (plants), then to the primary consumer, then secondary consumer, then tertiary consumer, and in some cases you may have a quaternary consumer. That is 4 links. However, we are forgetting the role of decomposers at all levels of this food chain, and that would add an extra link. In summary, you wouldn't typically see more than 5 links in a food chain.

I hope all of my explanations are helpful! Good luck! :-)
