What happens to 90% of carbon that is not passed to the next trophic level when a primary consumer takes in energy from a produc
AveGali [126]

Answer:

90% of carbon that is not passed to the next trophic level when a primary consumer takes in energy from a producer is lost as heat or used up by the body.

Explanation:

In the pyramid of energy, energy decreases as an organism move from one tropic level to the next. Only 10% of the energy at any trophic level is transferred to the next level.

The 10% consumed by an organism is stored in the body, the remaining 90% is lost as heat or used up for growth, reproduction, etc

Which of these changes in the food web would cause a decrease in the population of bald eagles
bogdanovich [222]

The correct answer is C. A decrease in the population of sea ducks

Explanation:

Food webs are diagrams that represent the relationship of organisms in an ecosystem by showing feeding or predatory relationships. This means food webs show which organisms eats another organism. In the case of the food web presented, this shows bald eagles fed on sea ducks and large piscivorous fish, this implies for survival bald eagles need from these two organisms. In this context, a decrease in the population of sea ducks (option C) would cause a decrease in the population of eagles because fewer sea ducks imply less food for eagles, and therefore fewer resources to survive.

Cortisol is a steroid hormone that can pass through the plasma membrane. Complete the flowchart describing the interaction of co
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The flow chart for the cortisol steroid hormone is as follows:

1. Cortisol passes through the plasma membrane into the cytoplasm.

2. Cortisol receptor complex form in the cytoplasm.

3. Cortisol receptor complex enter the nucleus where it binds to gene.

4. Cortisol receptor complex acts as transcription factor.

5. The tranacribed mRNA is translated into specific protein.

Explanation:

Cortisol is small which is hydrophobic steroid hormone which has the ability to move through the plasma membrane of the cells. In the target cells the cortisol binds with the intracellular receptor protein of the cytoplasm which further forms a hormone receptor complex. The hormone receptor complex further moves into the nucleus ad hence acts as a transcription factor which gets bind to the specific gene and thus, activates the transcription into mRNA. The mRNA which is generated subsequently translated into some specific proteins. Proteins which has been produced with response to the cortisol signal function to the stress response.
