Answer:
To show the flow of energy through ecosystems, food chains are sometimes drawn as energy pyramids. Each step of the pyramid represents a different trophic level, starting with primary producers at the bottom. The width of each step represents the rate of energy flow through each trophic level.
Explanation:
Answer:
By the process of cellular differentiation which consists of physical and functional changes of the cell used by processes at the genetic level. The expression of these in each type of cell is different. That is to say that the type of cell follows at a time of development there is differential activation of some genes and repression of others
The respiratory and circulatory systems bring oxygen and nutrients to the cells. The respiratory and circulatory systems work together to maintain homeostasis. The respiratory system moves gases into and out of the blood.
Answer:
(A) -> (D) -> (C) -> (B)
Explanation:
First off, given that the problem requires us to explain how life on Earth may have arisen <u>from terrestrial origins</u>, we can discard sentence (E), as impacts from meteorites would count as extraterrestrial origins.
Then it's just a matter of describing the steps by which simple compounds turned into more and more complex structures, that would in turn lead to the origin of life.
Simple inorganic compounds (such as CO₂, or NH₃) were exposed to energy, because of that they formed simple organic molecules, like carbohydrates or amino acids.
These organic molecules, in turn, would self-assemble into more complex structures, such as proteins.
Lastly, there's the phenomenon of Compartmentalization, where large organic structures became enclosed within a membrane-like structure, separating them from the 'outside' medium and thus creating primitive cells.
