The flow of energy from one level to another does not happen with 100% efficiency. The producers only transfer 10% of the energy they absorb from the Sun. The major chunk of the absorbed energy goes into the growth of the producers, the rest gets lost in the form of waste (shedding of leaves, reproduction, etc.) and the remaining 10% is the amount that is available to the primary consumers. So by this logic, if there is 150,000 KJ of energy available at the producer level, then, only 15,000 KJ of energy will get transferred to the primary consumers.
Answer:
I believe the answer is Chromosomes.
Explanation:
Answer:
The body uses sugars from carbohydrates which supply the brain with glucose as the brain uses it as a "fuel source".
<h2>Why is glucose so important for the brain?</h2>
Quick answer: It takes a lot of energy to receive, interpret, and send signals via your neurons. Glucose is the simples sugar that can be used to make energy.
Cells require energy to carry out their typical everyday tasks. The simplest sugar that our cells can utilize for energy is glucose. Since your neurons are specialized cells, many additional cells are also present to support or protect them. All of the senses you can experience utilizing incoming neurons (from the body to the brain) are transmitted to and interpreted by the brain, including touch, pain, vibration, temperature, smell, sight, hearing, taste, and others. Signal reception and interpretation need energy. Additionally, your brain instructs your body to "do" things, which uses energy. Additionally, you spend a significant portion of your waking hours "thinking," which consumes energy. This explains why 20% of the glucose in your body is used by our teeny, tiny, little brains.

<span>It is going to depend on what you consider stable. A
diverse population would be more resistant to disease because of simple
biology. The more sources for possible resistance the better the
heterogeneous pool will be at resisting disease. You also have to take
in to consideration things like the availability of modern medicine and
the ability to be isolated during illness. </span><span>
Personally I think it has to do with the fact that many of the worlds
more diverse population centers are also many of the worlds largest
population centers which make them less prone to invasion on that basis
alone. </span>
Most seismic activity occurs at three types of plate boundaries—divergent, convergent, and transform. As the plates move past each other, they sometimes get caught and pressure builds up.
