These two graphs show the amount of food consumed by a single species of organism. One graph shows food intake during one week i

n the summer when the organism is very active. One graph shows food intake during one week in the winter, when the organism is mostly at rest. Which graph represents each time period? Why are the two graphs different? Explain your answer, citing multiple pieces of specific evidence from the graph. Also, explain how the graph provides evidence that food is important for organisms.

Answer:

Explanation:

A food chain can be described as a series of energy dilutors, the energy that fails to reach the next level being dissipated as heat or movement. Most of the energy contained in the food of animal consumers is used by them during the processes of food collection, digestion and other essential metabolic activity. The overall efficiency of a food chain is therefore rather low and depends mainly on the number of different participants and thus on the length of the food chain. Generally, the greater the complexity of the food web the greater is the efficiency of the system as a whole. The main factors that determine the efficiency of food transfer are temperature, energy, and protein supply. Proteins form the major part of digestible algal and of animal cells; animals depend on receiving an adequate supply with their food because they are unable to synthesize some amino acids.

The image shows an example of a sedimentary rock.
ahrayia [7]

The correct answer is - the ocean animals deposited in its layers.

The sedimentary rock on the image is clearly an organic sedimentary rock because it contains fossils of marine animals. This type of sedimentary rocks form when sediments and organic matter come in contact, are merged, or rather naturally cemented so they are stuck together, and the end result is a sedimentary rock with organic matter involved in its composition. The organic sedimentary rocks are much more common in places where there was once a marine life, and much rarer with organic matter from terrestrial animals in it, though there are some rich deposits from that type in certain places as well.

Alekssandra [29.7K]
The correct answer is stabilising selection. This is selection that favours an average trait value. It is thought that this sort of selection is very common as traits among most animals do not appear to change drastically over time. Stabilising selection selects against the extreme traits, and leads to a decrease in genetic diversity by favouring the average phenotypes.

Tom and Jerry start at the same location. Tom is travelling due east at a velocity of 5 m/hr. Jerry is travelling due northwest
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The distance between them is changing at the speed of 10.16 m/hr

Explanation:

Consider the sketch attached below.

The question is simply asking to calculate the resultant of the two velocities.

To get the angle between them, we simply use the coordinates of the two vectors to determine the angle between them.  

90 + 45 = 135°

from the cosine rule we have

c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2} - 2abcosθ

c^{2} = 6^{2} +5^{2} - 2 ×6×5×cos 135

c^{2} = 103.426

c = \sqrt{103.426}

c = 10.17 m/hr
