The energy passed to each subsequent trophic level in food chain is 10% of the energy in the last trophic level. Therefore:
Algae- 4,000 kJ
Larva- 400 kJ
Anchovy- 40 kJ
Eel- 4 kJ
The reduction in the energy passed is due to the fact that when an organism consumes a given amount of energy, it is utilized for different functions within the organism's body and is lost in a form that can not be recovered, for example, as heat energy.
In lichens (blue-green algae) the algae benefit their fungal partner by producing carbon compounds through photosynthesis and the fungal partner in return provides protection and also gather nutrients and moisture from environment ..this relationship between algae and fungi is known as symbiotic relationship in which both are mutually benefited.
Answer:
Ignorance of animals’ stress response
Explanation:
Dr. Temple Grandin who is a researcher on the various animal stress and how to ensure that animals are taken care of published an article on what animals passed through daily during animal operations.
According to him, the most common cause of abuse and neglect in animal operations happens to be ignorance of the people about animal stress response.
<em>To him, most farmers don't pay attention to the stress animals passes through neither do they respond adequately to those stress when found.</em>
Answer:
The limiting factors are oxygen concentration, carbon dioxide concentration and light intensity
Explanation:
All the factors have to be in efficient amounts for photosynthesis to take place. If one is inefficient, the process will be affected; just like a three legged stool, if you remove one leg, the chair won't be able to stand.
