Igneous rocks are formed through the cooling of magma or lava.
The main types of rocks are: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic.
In covalence bonding, the two atoms forming the bond share the electrons between themselves, which is what creates the bond.
In ionic bonding, one atom sees that the other is lacking an electron so, given that it has an electron that it can afford to lose, it gives it to the other atom.
The solar energy of the sun is converted into chemical energy by the plants
Answer:
10 units
Explanation:
Energy is transferred from organism to organism in an ecosystem when they feed on one another. However, based on the pyramid of energy, only about 10% of energy is transferred from one organism to another because a bulk of energy (about 90%) has been lost to metabolic activities.
Energy moves from producers to consumers, each occupying trophic levels. If the first trophic level in an energy pyramid receives 1,000 units of energy from the sun,
- 10% of 1000units will be available for the second trophic level i.e. 10/100 × 1000 = 100units
- 10% of 100units will be available for the third trophic level i.e. 10/100 × 100 = 10units
Hence, 10units of energy is available for the third trophic level.
