In an ecosystem, a deer consumes grass. What percentage of energy will the deer acquire from the grass? 0. 1% 1% 10% 100%.

1 answer:

7 0

In an ecosystem, the energy is transferred between the organisms participating in the food webs from producers and consumers.

The percentage of energy transferred to the deer after feeding on the grass is 10%.

The 10% law of the energy states that:

1. The food chain at each trophic level passes or transmits only 10% of the energy and 90% of the energy is lost as heat.

2. The amount of energy at each trophic level decreases, such that the producers if consuming the 100 J of energy, the deers or primary consumers at the first trophic level will have only 10% of the energy.

Thus, the deer will possess only 10% of the energy at each trophic level, following the 10% law.

The correct answer is Option C.

Learning Task 3

lara [203]

The purpose of both mitosis and meiosis is to increase the number or population of cells in the body.

<h3>Compare mitosis and meiosis type of cell division</h3>

Mitosis produces two diploid (2n) cells that are identical to the original parent cell whereas meiosis produces four haploid (n) cells that are different from the original parent cell.

Mitosis occurs in somatic cells whereas meiosis occurs in reproductive cells.

So we can conclude that the purpose of both mitosis and meiosis is to increase the number or population of cells in the body.

Describe two situations where apoptosis plays a crucial role

Apoptosis is important for programmed cell destruction when a cell begins to grow abnormally, or when cells become inefficient at completing the cell cycle and providing the specific set of functions to the organism.
(cancer/abnormal cells, and old cells)

Organisms that are composed of many cells working together to form tissues, organs, and organ systems are referred to as _______

alina1380 [7]

Eukaryotes.

There are two main division of organisms in the wide spectrum of species. Eukaryotic organisms and prokaryotic organisms.
These organisms is divided based on the cell number they have. Further, eukaryotes have a dynamic function and strata in terms of cell structure and I'm not discussing in its internal parts but the external varieties invovled.
Eukaryotes are unison of different cells that function specifically however, interdependent of one another. That is why they are called cells, and group of cells are called tissues and so on.
