Why is the energy lower in each trophic level

Biology
1 answer:
Akimi4 [234]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Only small proportion of energy in the biomass of organisms in one trophic level will ever become part of the biomass of organisms in the next trophic level.

Explanation:

Energy decreases as it moves up trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level.

In tomato plants, the allele for purple stems is dominant to allele for green stems and the allele for red fruit is dominant to
Kamila [148]

So let's call the allele that is dominant for purple stems is P, and the recessive allele yielding green stems is p. And let's say that the allele that is dominant for red fruit is R and the recessive allele for yellow fruit is r.


The two plants are each heterozygour for both traits, meaning that the cross is going to be:


PpRr x PpRr


So let's setup a Punnet Square:


\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}&PR&Pr&pR&pr&PR&PPRR&PPRr&PpRR\4&PpRr&Pr&PPRr&PPrr&PpRr&Pprr\\pR&PpRR&PpRr&ppRR&ppRr&pr&PpRr&Pprr&ppRr&pprr\end{array}\right]


The genotypic ratios (alleles) and phenotypic ratios are as follows:


PPRR (Purple stem, Red fruit): \frac{1}{16}


PpRR (Purple stem, Red fruit): \frac{2}{16} or \frac{1}{8}


ppRR (Green Stem, Red fruit): \frac{1}{16}


PPRr (Purple stem, Red fruit): \frac{2}{16} or \frac{1}{8}


PPrr (Purple stem, Yellow fruit): \frac{1}{16}


PpRr (Purple stem, Red fruit): \frac{4}{16} or \frac{1}{4}


pprr (Green stem, Yellow fruit): \frac{1}{16}


ppRr (Green stem, Red fruit): \frac{2}{16} or \frac{1}{8}


Pprr (Purple stem, Yellow fruit): \frac{2}{16} or \frac{1}{8}


So then we take the like phenotypic ratios and add them together:


Purple stem, Red fruit: \frac{1}{16} +\frac{2}{16} +\frac{2}{16} +\frac{4}{16}=\frac{9}{16}


Green stem, Red fruit: \frac{1}{16}+ \frac{2}{16} =\frac{3}{16}


Purple stem, Yellow fruit: \frac{1}{16}+ \frac{2}{16} =\frac{3}{16}


Green stem, Yellow fruit: \frac{1}{16}
