Biology

Westkost [7]3 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.

Explain how the basic structure of an atom has led to the diversity of compounds making up living and nonliving things
kobusy [5.1K]

Atom refers to a tiny particle, which is the basic building block of all the substances and whose properties determine the characteristics of an element made up of only of those atoms.  

All the living and nonliving matter in this world are made up of atoms and elements. Everything in the universe is matter, and matter comprises elements. Some of the elements are important to living things.  

Elements are formed by atoms, and atoms comprise protons, electrons, and neutrons. The number of protons in an element's atom signifies the identity of the element.
