Answer:

10000 units in the second

100000 units in the third

1000000 units in the fourth

Explanation:

According to the pyramid of energy, which describes how energy flows from one trophic level to another, only about 10% of the available energy is transferred to the organism in the next trophic level as a lot of energy (about 90%) is lost as heat.

In this question, in order to have 1000inits of energy in

- Second trophic level = 1000 = 10/100 × x

10x = 100000

x = 10000units of energy

- for third trophic level,

100 × 1000

= 100000 units of energy

- for fourth trophic level;

1000 × 1000

= 1,000,000 units of energy.

<span>The answer would be: A) First trimester

</span>Genetic malformation should happen when the baby is forming its organs. Most of the organ is formed at the 3rd weeks of pregnancy which is part of the first trimester. If there is no malformation at this stage, it is less likely that any will develop at the later stage since it involve more growing and developing the current organ.

In natural systems, nitrogen is lost by denitrification. Predict which of the following processes will be most responsible for r
IgorLugansk [536]

The correct answer is:

fixation

Explanation:

Nitrogen fixation is a method by which nitrogen in the Earth's atmosphere is converted into ammonia or other molecules prepared to living organisms. Nitrogen fixation is carried by a diversity of bacteria, both as free-living organisms and in symbiotic association with plants. Because it is the primary source of the nitrogen in the soil, nitrogen that plants need to grow, nitrogen fixation is one of the most critical biochemical processes on Earth
