Fish are cold-blooded or poikilothermic, meaning that their body temperatures vary with the surrounding temperature. During the cold of winter fish become less active. They find little pockets out of the way of fast moving water where they can stay still and conserve energy.
Answer:
wind whips it up and gravity pulls it down.
Explanation:
Answer:
B. By taking in inorganic substances
Explanation:
When you think of autotrophs, you may think of plants, and how do plants get nutrition?
By taking in inorganic substances like carbon dioxide or sunlight, then converting it into energy.
Answer:
The correct answer is one strand of each new molecule comes from the original molecule.
Explanation:
DNA replication is process by which the parental DNA is converted into two daughter DNA molecule.DNA replication is semi conservative in nature which means each newly synthesized daughter DNA molecule contain 50% parental DNA characteristics.
Each newly synthesizd daughter DNA molecule contain one parental strand and one newly synthesized strand..Thus half of the characteristics of parental DNA is being conserved in each newly formed daughter DNA molecule.

<span>-is recycled in ... flow through</span><span>
On a global scale, energy flows through ecosystems whereas chemical elements are recycle in ecosystems. So the answer is the third option.
Energy flows through the ecosystem. Most energy comes from sunlight and it is transformed into chemical energy by autotrophs. When they are consumed by heterotrophs the energy is passed on, until it dissipates as heat.

Chemical elements like carbon and nitrogen, on the other hand, are cycled between biotic and abiotic factors in an ecosystem. This is not possible for energy. These chemical elements come from abiotic factors like the air, light and soil. They are incorporated in the biomass of the photosynthetic organisms and are consumed by other organisms. They are changed back into their inorganic form when the organism dies and are broken down by decomposers and the cycle goes on. So they are constantly being recycled.
In summary, energy needs a continuous source to be able to maintain and sustain the energy flow in the ecosystem. Chemical elements, on the other hand, are just recycled through processes between abiotic factors and biotic factors. </span>
