Answer:

a. Approximately 1,003 weasels, 3,345 mice and 16,729 wheat plants per one hawk are in the ecosystem

Explanation:

The percentage of the weasel population eaten by a hawk = 30%

The percentage of the mouse population eaten by a weasel = 30%

The percentage of the wheat plants population eaten by a mice = 20%

a. One hawk needs 330 kJ of energy per day, which gives 330 kJ × 365 = 120,450 kJ per year

Let 'x' represent the number of weasels to support one hawk, we have;

0.3 × x = 120,450 kJ/year/(400 kJ) = 301.125

x = 301.125/0.3 = 1,003.75

The number of weasels required to support one hawk per year ≈ 1,003 weasels

The total weasels ≈ 1,003

ii) The number of mice needed, y = x/0.3 = 1,003.75/0.3 = 3,345.8\overline 3

The total mice, y ≈ 3,345 mice

iii) The number of wheat flower needed, z = y/0.2

∴ The number of wheat flower needed, z = 3,345.8\overline 3/0.2 ≈ 16,729.1\overline 6

The total wheat plants ≈ 16,729.

Plants use the energy from the sun to convert
Tatiana [17]

Answer: simple inorganic molecules to sugar

Explanation:

Through the process of photosynthesis plants use the green coloured pigment named chlorophyll present in their leaves to trap sun light (solar energy) alongside other simple inorganic molecules like atmospheric carbon dioxide and water to produce sugar molecules (usually glucose) which is later stored as starch.

All of the following factors are responsible for unloading of oxygen from the hemoglobin molecule except
tatuchka [14]

All of the factors are responsible for unloading of oxygen from the hemoglobin molecule except the increase in partial pressure of oxygen.

Because the affinity of haemoglobin for binding oxygen increases as  partial pressure of oxygen rises.

<h3>What is  Haemoglobin?</h3>

Red blood cells include the protein hemoglobin, which transports oxygen to your body's organs and tissues and carbon dioxide from those tissues back to your lungs.

<h3>What are factors that affect Haemoglobin's affinity for oxygen?</h3>
  • When used as an oxygen transporter, hemoglobin can carry about 65 times as much oxygen as simple solution in plasma could.
  • A cooperative oxygen-hemoglobin affinity is produced by conformational changes in the molecule.
  • The oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve's sigmoidal form reflects this characteristic.
  • Temperature, hydrogen ions, carbon dioxide, and intraerythrocytic 2,3-DPG all have an impact on hemoglobin's affinity, and they all interact with one another.

How is hydrogen bonding responsible for the heat capacity of water?
Anika [276]
Water's high heat capacity is a property caused by hydrogen bonding among water molecules. When heat is absorbed, hydrogen bonds are broken and water molecules can move freely. When the temperature of water decreases, the hydrogen bonds are formed and release a considerable amount of energy
