Answer:

Energy flows in one direction, and matter cycles through the environment.

Explanation:

• Energy passes on from the producers (plants) up to the final consumer who absorbs it all. When final consumer dies, also energy collapses. So, more energy will be required hence a new cycle begins.

• Matter such as nutrients are taken up from primary consumers to the final consumer. When final consumer dies, its nutrients decompose are reused by the producers hence cycle repeats again.

These question all about ice storms!!!!!!!! answer them in complete sentence

Arisa [49]

The scale used to measure the intensity of ice storms is called the Sperry–Piltz Ice Accumulation Index, based on the expected footprint of an ice storm, the expected ice accumulation as a result of a storm, and the expected damage a storm inflicts on human-built structures.

Meteorologists use Dual Polarization Radar, and the Q2 a mix of sensors and algorithms to predict precipitation.

Yes ice storms can be predicted by weather agencies, and it depends how fast it is detected and how severe it is.

I need help with the image (phenotypes and genotypes).

Flauer [41]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

1. Only one phenotype is present in the F1 generation offspring. Since tallness was dominant over shortness, all the offspring in the F1 generation appeared tall.

2. Two phenotypes are present in the F2 generation - 9 tall and 3 short. The short trait reappeared at the F2 generation.

3. The genotype of the F1 offspring would be heterozygous. Assuming the purebred tall is AA and the purebred short is aa:

AA x aa

Aa Aa Aa Aa

All the F1 offspring will appear tall and their genotypes would be heterozygous.

4. Assuming that the allele for height is denoted with A (a), the genotype of the purebred tall plant would be AA.

5. In a similia vein, the genotype of the purebred short plant would be aa.

javier obsevo la cabeza de una mariposa en fase de oruga y en fase adulta para saber como se alimentan

kotykmax [81]

Answer: Las orugas, larvas de mariposas y polillas, se alimentan casi exclusivamente de plantas. La mayoría de las orugas mastican felizmente las hojas, aunque algunas se alimentan de otras partes de la planta, como semillas o flores, mientras que durante la etapa de adulto, la mariposa se alimenta de néctar y pasa de ser un herbívoro a ser un importante polinizador.
