Biology
1 answer:
Blizzard [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Derived trait

Explanation:

An ancestral (or primitive) trait/character is a feature inherited from the common ancestor of the species/group of interest, while derived traits are those that were absent in the last common ancestor of the group of interest. For example, considering mammals as the target group, the presence of hair is a shared derived trait relative to other vertebrates, i.e., amphibians, reptiles, and birds. However, this trait (hair) is ancestral for humans since the genetically closest species to humans (e.g., chimpanzees) also have hair.

Hope this helps :)

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The energy flow in the ecosystem decreases as it flows from one trophic level to the next trophic level. Only 10% of the energy will transfer to the next trophic level and the remaining energy is lost in the other metabolic process.

The energy flow in the case of the grassland can be shown by the trophic relationship of the organisms. The sun is the primary source of the energy that are absorbed by the plants through the photosynthesis process. The cattle acts as herbivores will consume the plants energy by directly feeding on them. The ranch should be protected from the other animals that feeds on cattle and they are known as carnivorves.
