Answer:

b. Yes, the average efficiency is 10%

Explanation:

The average efficiency at each trophic level is 10% because there is about 10% of energy is transferred from one trophic level to another. In some trophic levels the efficiency of organisms is 20% but in most of the trophic level has 10% efficiency so that's why the average efficiency is 10%. Yes, this ecosystem  obeys the Lindeman's Law for ecological efficiency due to its 10% of ecological efficiency.

Describe what must come together in order for atp to be made
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
To make ATP, cells must join together ADP & a phosphate using energy from food. A phosphate is removed from an ATP molecule in order to provide energy for the cell. Thus, the ATP molecule turns into an ADP molecule. We eat food which gives us energy to add another phosphate group to the ADP molecule, turning it into an ATP molecule. The cycle then begins again.

Which term refers to a change in one species that results from a change in another species that it interacts with?
Mrac [35]
The answer is coevolution.

Coevolution is a change in <span>one species that results from a change in another species that it interacts with. For example, some species of orchid and African moth coevolved. That was a consequence of African moths' dependence on flower nectar and the orchids' dependence on moths' help in pollination. This two species coevolved, therefore the orchids have deep flowers while African moths have long proboscides.</span>

What is the name given to cell division in eukaryotes
mr_godi [17]
In eukaryotes, there are two distinct types of cell division: a vegetative division, whereby each daughter cell is genetically identical to the parent cell (mitosis), and a reproductive cell division, whereby the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced by half to produce haploid gametes (meiosis).
