What is the direction of energy flow in an energy pyramid? How much energy is transfered from one step to another?

Biology
1 answer:
Westkost [7]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

- The flow of energy is from the lowest level (i.e., the base of the pyramid)  to highest levels

- Approximately 10 percent

Explanation:

The energy pyramid is a diagram that shows the flow of energy between trophic levels in an ecosystem. Each trophic level is characterized by organisms that play specific roles in an ecosystem, for example, photosynthetic organisms (producers) at the base of the pyramid which represent the source of energy for herbivores localized at a higher level. The amount of energy decreases as it moves to higher trophic levels, approximately 10 percent of the energy is transferred from a trophic level to the next level and the remaining energy is lost as heat.

Which parts of the nephron does adh act on to regulate water reabsorption?
Mashutka [201]

Distal Convoluted Tubule and Collecting Duct are parts of the nephron does ADH act on to regulate water reabsorption. ADH acts throughs G-protein coupled receptor in order to increase transcription and the insertion of Aquaporin–2 channels for the apical membrane of the CD and DCT cells. Therefore, the permeability of CD and DCT cells to the water increases.

A Distal Convoluted Tubule (DCT) is a short nephron segment, a portion of kidney nephron between Henle or macula densa and the collecting tubule loop. It plays an important role in regulating extracellular fluid volume and electrolyte homeostasis. In DCT, Sodium absorption occurs, which is mediated by the hormone aldosterone.

Why is 3 the correct answer to number 1 ? Explain why and answer this please !!
ELEN [110]

Answer:

3) offspring with more variety

Explanation:

The reason #3 is the answer to #1 is because variety means change or difference in something and the change was in the environment. Asexual species reproduce with no partner, just their genetics, so there isn't much of a change. Species that reproduce sexually have a higher advantage of reproducing offspring with more variety because there was a "change" in the environment. If that change affected one of the two mating species it could cause variety within the environment.

Can a frontal lobe tumor make someone psychotic
mafiozo [28]
To put it simply... Yes. The Frontal lobe controls that basic emotions and thought process, that make you, You. A tumor would definitely interfere with those processes, and you can end up with patients with some form of AMS (altered mental status). They could end up with a biological psychosis, hallucinations, depression and anxiety, Anasecoria (uneven papillary dilation, due to pressure on the optic nerve), Delirium, or Dementia.
