If you ate more food from secondary consumers, how would this change the percentage of the biomass pyramid necessary to support
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

would increase

Explanation:

The pyramid of biomass is a diagram that exhibits the total biomass of the organisms at different trophic levels, which are required to support life in a given ecosystem. This pyramid usually starts with producers situated on the bottom (e.g., plants), then continues with the organisms that eat these primary consumers (herbivores), after with secondary consumers (carnivores), and so successively. The pyramid of biomass indicates the amount of mass of 1-primary producers required to support the life of the primary consumers, 2- primary consumers needed to support the life of the secondary consumers, 3-secondary consumers needed to support the life of the tertiary consumers, and so successively for each trophic level. In this diagram, the trophic level with a higher amount of biomass (and energy) is usually represented by the producers (i.e., by organisms on the bottom), and this amount of biomass decreases as long as more levels are considered. In consequence, if more food from secondary consumers is consumed, it will produce an increase in the percentage of biomass that is needed to support life.

Why do dinoflagellates thrive in bahia fosforescente
lukranit [14]
<h2>Dinoflagellates thrive in bahia fosforescente</h2>

Explanation:

  • Dinoflagellate, are one-celled aquatic organisms having two dissimilar flagella.
  • It has a characteristics of both plants and animals.
  • Most of the dinoflagellates are marine, but some live in freshwater habitats.
  • Bahia fosforescente is one of the phosphorescent bays where millions of glowing marine dwellers such as dinoflagellates cause the lake to glow a bright blue in night.
  • Dinoflagellates has the characteristics of Bioluminescence which they use it as a defense mechanism.
  • During night, due to the bioluminescence of dinoflagellates,water can have an appearance of sparkling light.
  • Dinoflagellates takes their nutrients from marine organisms, thus they grow or develop well in bahia fosforescente.

Why more atp is produced in aerobic respiration than in anaerobic respiration
Oxana [17]
Most of the ATP produced by aerobic cellular respiration is made by oxidative phosphorylation. This works by the energy released in the consumption of pyruvate being used to create a chemiosmotic potential by pumping protons across a membrane. 

<span>Aerobic metabolism is 19 times more efficient than anaerobic metabolism (which yields 2 mol ATP per 1 mol glucose). They share the initial pathway of glycolysis but aerobic metabolism continues with the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. The post glycolytic reactions take place in the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells, and in the cytoplasm in prokaryotic cells.</span>

Discuss three potential benefits and three possible harmful effects of genetic modifications on humans. Be thorough and specific
Andreyy89

Answer:

cess for GE crops conducted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Other evidence came from studies published by regulatory agencies in other countries or by companies, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and academic institutions. The committee also sought evidence from the public and from the speakers at its public meetings and webinars.1

The committee thinks that it is important to make clear that there are limits to what can be known about the health effects of any food, whether non-GE or GE. If the question asked is “Is it likely that eating this food today will make me sick tomorrow?” researchers have methods of getting quantitative answers. However, if the question is “Is it likely that eating
