1) The answer is 56,000 Cal. Energy from the sun is taken by photoautotrophs (green plants) through the process of photosynthesis. Some of this energy is then taken by consumers when they feed on plants, with only 10% of the energy taken by the primary consumers, then when the secondary consumers feed on the primary consumers they also take 10% of the energy, and the process continues. The rest of energy is lost inform of heat energy. Therefore; the energy recieved by ocelot (tertiary consumers) is 10% of the energy from the macaw (secondary consumer). hence
(5600/10)×100= 56000 Cal
2) The answer is Less than 5600 Cal
When the number of Macaw (secondary consumers) decreases the number of tertiary consumers also decreases since they depend on the secondary consumers for energy. Thus the energy obtained from the remaining macaw will be lower.
Answer:
Fungi are either saprophytes or parasites.
Fungi are parasites on the living organism. They live in the body of the host cell and gets nutrition from the host body. The Fungus Septobasidium is parasitic in nature and feeds on the tree. They form the mycelium that feeds on the bark of the trees.
Some of the fungus show saprophytic behavior as they feed on the dead and decaying matter of prey and they release the digestive enzymes outside the body and absorb the digested food(nutrients) inside their body.
<h2>Resistance to antibiotics </h2>
Explanation:
Bacteria are single-celled organisms usually found all over the inside and outside of our bodies
- Antibiotic resistance is the ability of bacteria or other microbes to resist the effects of an antibiotic
- Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria change in some way that reduces or eliminates the effectiveness of drugs, chemicals, or other agents designed to cure or prevent infections,the bacteria survive and continue to multiply causing more harm
- There are two main ways that bacterial cells can acquire antibiotic resistance,one is through mutations that occur in the DNA of the cell during replication and the other way that bacteria acquire resistance is through horizontal gene transfer
- Through the process of replication bacteria develop mutations that make them resistant to antibiotics
- Bacteria with the resistant mutation have a better chance of survival against antibiotics
- Resistant bacteria continue to multiply even when exposed to antibiotics
- In horizontal gene transfer,antibiotic resistant genetic material is transferred between different bacterial cells which can happen in three different ways: transformation,transduction or conjugation
The products of photosynthesis serve as the reactants in cellular respiration to provide chemical energy.
That would be an allele
hope this helped :)
