determine approximately how much total energy is passed to the tertiary consumers if 1000 calories enter at the autotroph level

Biology
1 answer:
Kazeer [188]3 years ago
3 0
Correct answer: 1 calorie.

By definition, the amount of energy that passes from a lower level to the next higher level on a food chain is about 10% of that that was at that level. So, if there are 1000 calories in an autotroph level, the next level, primary consumers, will get 100 calories from it, the secondary consumers, 10 calories, and the tertiary consumers, 1 calorie.

Whats are the pros and cons of a endoskeleton?
Softa [21]

Well, an endoskeleton is an internal skeleton, like humans have. Pro: Bones do not get broke as easily, since they are inside of the body. Bones that break also heal more quickly in an endoskeleton, since they have tissue and blood surrounding it and transferring nutrients. Con: The flesh can get easily damaged. There is no shedding with endoskeletons, so a new skeleton cannot be grown in the event of an injury.

One common test of language lateralization is invasive; it involves injecting ____________ into the carotid artery.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

barbiturate/sedatives

Explanation:

Lateralization is a process of studying the split functions of the brain hemispheres. The most common test used for testing lateralization is obtained from sodium amytal studies. In this study a barbiturate or a sedative is injected into the carotid artery either left or the right artery. So, till the time the barbiturate hampers the functioning of any hemisphere, the functions associated with that hemisphere also gets hampered or are sustained for a while. This technique is of invasive nature

Because digital signals do not depend on amplitude or frequency differences to communicate information, they are more vulnerable
Kazeer [188]

False

Electromagnetic interference happens less commonly with digital signals because they do not rely on subtle amplitude (signal strength) or frequency differences(cycles in a certain time) to communicate information. Digital signals are readable even with distortion generated from electromagnetic interference noise

Which would be a consequence of the removal of predators from a population such as the Trinidadian guppy population?a .The nitro
natulia [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. "Guppy color patterns would change; guppies would produce fewer but larger offspring; the nitrogen excretion rate would increase and the rate of growth of primary producers such as algae would increase".

Explanation:

The Trinidadian guppy is a species of fish with the scientific name <em>Poecilia reticulata</em>. Just like almost all species, its population is regulated for multiple factors, one of them being the presence of predators. The removal of Trinidadian guppy predators would result in multiple consequences:

- Guppy color patterns would change. The fish have a complex coloration determined largely by predation avoidance.

- Guppies would produce fewer but larger offspring. This adaptation has been proved in an experiment at which the fish was introduced one a low predation environment. The report proved that evolution can take place in less than 10 years.

- The nitrogen excretion rate would increase. It has been reported that predation reduce Trinidadian guppy nitrogen excretion by 40%. Removing the predators will case the nitrogen excretion rate to increase due to an increase in the fish food intake.

- The rate of growth of primary producers such as algae would increase. This is an effect of the increase of nitrogen excretion rate, which benefits algae population to growth.
