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

Biology

likoan [24]2 years ago

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.

Explain how the use of cell technology makes disease eradication possible.
Kaylis [27]

The post-eradication era is a period of history for which there has been no precedent whatsoever in terms of a zero base of immunity. Cessation of immunization will eventually create a population susceptible to widespread infection in the event of accidental or intentional reintroduction or re-emergence of the eradicated virus. Thus, even after immunization ceases, vaccine production must continue.

However, many currently available vaccines may not be appropriate for continued post-eradication vaccine production or reinstatement. Vaccines must be continually improved and ongoing vaccination research maintained. Other potentially useful antiviral strategies—antivirals, prophylaxis, and probiotics—must also be considered as means to strengthen the immune system and serve as adjuvant or prophylactic therapies.

In the case of polio, for example, it remains to be determined which vaccine (oral polio vaccine [OPV] or inactivated polio vaccine [IPV]), or variant thereof, should be produced in the post-eradication, post-vaccination era. A detailed plan for vaccine production will require more information on OPV-derived viral persistence and transmission, as well as continuing dialogue between public health and research communities in order to ensure that appropriate vaccination research continues.

How much force would is required to stop a 1200kg car in 2 seconds if the car is traveling at 22 m/s
Shalnov [3]
Force required = F = ?

mass of the car = m = 1200 kg

initial velocity of the car = Vi = 10 m/sec

final velocity of the car = 0

time required to stop the car = t = 20 sec

Using Newton`s 2nd law of motion;

F = ma ………………………(1)

as a = Vf - Vi / t , put this value in equation (1)

F = m ( Vf - Vi /t ) ………………(2)

F = 1200 ( 0 - 10 /20) = - 600 N

here Negative sign shows that external force is acting in opposite direction of the motion to bring it to rest.

we can also calculate this force by using the relation

Rate of change of momentum = net force acting on the object …………(3)

m Vf - m Vi / t = net force acting on the object

m (Vf - Vi / t) = F

1200 ( 0 - 10 /20) = - 600 N = F

so, net force acting on the object =F = - 600 N
