Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Pyramid of energy is also referred to as food pyramid and it's a model used to depict the flow of energy from one trophic level or feeding level to the next in an ecosystem. It's a diagram that compares the energy used by organisms at each trophic level of the food chain. The pyramid of energy must never be inverted or turned upside down.

The units used in the construction of pyramids of energy is kilocalories (kcal) or energy per area per time (Jm-²year-¹).

A list of the types of organisms in an eco pyramid are;

I. Producers: these are autotrophs or self-feeders such as plants.

II. Primary (top) consumers: these are herbivores that typically feed on plants such as a goat or deer.

III. Secondary consumers: these consists of carnivores that typically feed or eat flesh such as lion, tiger, cheetah, etc.

IV. Tertiary consumers: these are higher predators such as humans that aren't normally fed on by other organisms in the ecosystem.

In Biology, producers are the living organisms that are capable of manufacturing their own food and as such can provide energy or food for the other living organisms (consumers) in a food web. Thus, producers are mainly known as the foundation of a food web (chain) and are at the top.

A producer gets energy from the sun and converts it into food. The cells found in producers are capable of converting the energy received directly from the sun into food through a process generally referred to as photosynthesis, converting carbon dioxide from the air, water from the soil, minerals and energy from the sun into organic nutrients.

What is the setting of the short story "Harrison Bergeron"?
ivolga24 [154]

     

      "Harrison Bergeron" takes place in 2081, in the United States, and it's main point is the society depicted, that restrained critical thinking and creativity, as well as competition; in a distorted application of methods to achieve equality. They used devices to avoid clear thinking, masks to hide beauty with the purpose of placing people in the same level.

     The characters are the Bergeron family in which the son, Harrison Bergeron, was so superior that no "containment" device could avoid his skills and appearance  to show up. In a tentative of changing the world and freeing the handicapped people, and after all that being their "King", Harrison defies the system and ends up being murdered by the commander of this new world: The United States Handicapper General. As no one could remember what happened on the moment before, even Harrison's parents who were watching the scene on TV, the world continued as it were.

Read the introduction and first paragraph of an essay about energy sources,
shutvik [7]

Answer:

The statement that introduces a new counterclaim to the author's position is letter <u>D) The use of solar energy is especially limited in areas that do not get regular sunlight.</u>

Explanation:

A counterclaim means to rebuff a previous claim about something.

If a person makes a claim to something, usually he bring supporting evidence to validate his claim. Therefore, <u>mentioning the contrary opinion to his own opinion is his counterclaim.</u>

From the essay, the author is defending the use of solar energy because he feels that the energy is clean and renewable unlike most other sources of energy.

Therefore, the statement that makes a counterclaim to the author's opinion that solar energy is clean and renewable is that <u>the use of solar energy is especially limited in areas that do not get regular sunlight.</u>
