What percent of the energy consumed by the larvae became biomass that is now available to the next trophic level?

Answer

         About 10% energy is converted to biomass from one trophic level to another trophic level.

Explanation

        Food chain is composed of different trophic level which are classified on the basis of their mood of food obtain. These include  

1. Producers (photosynthetic)

2. Primary consumers (herbivore)

3. secondary consumer (Carnivore)

4. Tertiary consumer (carnivore)

5.Quaternary consumer (Carnivore)

6. Decomposer  

                     As larvae are hatched by insects which belong to second trophic level.  About 90% of energy in food is lost at each trophic level. As move down the trophic level the number of organism also decreases in each trophic level. Therefore, energy transfer from one trophic level to another is like a pyramid.

What is the purpose of cell transport? what is the difference between active transport and passive transport?
Colt1911 [192]
Cell transport is useful because it's, essentially, the movement of cells across the blood/veins. Active transport uses energy, while passive transport does not.

A transmembrane protein has the following properties: it has two binding sites, one for solute A and one for solute B. The prote
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

The protein is a symport protein.

Explanation:

Transport proteins are proteins which are involved in the transport of solutes across the cell membrane. The binding of the solute to be transported across the membrane causes a conformational change in the shape of the protein, thereby moving the molecule to the side of nthe membrane it is to be transported. The difference in the concentration of the solute across the membrane known as concentration gradient is mainly responsible for the transport of molecules by the transport proteins.

There are three types of transport proteins: uniport, symport and antiport transport proteins.

Uniporters are involved in moving only one molecule across a membrane

Symporters are involved in moving two or more molecule across a membrane in the same direction.

Antiporters are involved in moving two or more molecule across a membrane in opposite directions.

From the description of the transport protein in the question, both solutes A and B are moved across the membrane simultaneously in the same direction. Therefore, the protein is a symport protein.
