Why are predators the smallest group at the top in the energy pyramid

Biology
1 answer:
masya89 [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Predators eat prey, technically speaking.

Explanation:

The lowest and largest group takes the most energy cause it's first base. Going up the chain, the second group takes that energy from the first. Then the third, takes the energy from the second and so on. It's a cycle, and the the smallest group at the top of the energy pyramid will be given the less energy that travels throughout the pyramid.

I hope this makes sense.

Researchers are studying the abnormal activity of kinases in relation to cancer. Theoretically, how might researchers use signal
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

I am pretty sure that the answer is A.

Explanation:

Protein kinases regulate the cell cycle by giving the "go-ahead" or "stop" signal at checkpoints in the cycle. A mutation/disruption in the protein kinases can result in it not doing its job properly. As a result, it can give the 'go-ahead' signal to all cells (mutated or not) to continue through the cell cycle. A distrupted kinase will infleunce the enviornment for a cancer cell as the cancer cell can continue to divide continuously.

I do not think the answer is D because G-couped receptirs are not involed in the regulation of the cell cycle. Additionally, I do not think the answer is C since the production of cAMP (a secondary messgenger amplifies transduction signals; this doesn't have anything to do with cancer?) Finally, between A and B I know that a direct result of cancer is due to a distruption in either protien kinases or  growth factors (not in the answer choices). Since one of the factors that  leads to cancer is present in answer choice A, I think that is the one. However, this is just my reasoning, I am not 100% sure!
