Energy will take the path from sun to stomach as sun's energy to chemical energy followed by thermal and mechanical energy.
Explanation:
The energy of the sun is in the from of chemical energy which is the ultimate basis of life on earth . The process of photosynthesis occurs to form a chemical compound named glucose. The food ingested is in polymer complex forms as protein, carbohydrate, fats etc which is broken into monomers for absorption in intestine and stomach.
The dietary compound has energy stored in their bonds as chemical energy.
So, from sun human consume chemical energy which is stored in food.
The energy even if consumed by eating meat is also chemical energy which is stored as potential energy.
The breakdown of food or chemical energy into monomers leads to release of thermal energy or heat to maintain optimum body temperature.
Chemical energy also gets converted to mechanical energy which allows functioning of vital organs and movement of body.
The key difference between energy flow and matter cycling is that energy flow shows the energy transmission from one trophic level to next trophic level in food chains while matter cycling shows the flow or cycling of elements through the living and nonliving parts of ecosystems
When carbon is exchanged along the biosphere
The human cell has the largest surface area to volume ratio is Sperm cell or spermatozoa and its ratio is 1.55
<u>Explanation:</u>
Spermatozoa is a uni-flagellar motile sperm cell that basically determines the sex of an offspring. It moves from the haploid male gamete,its contributes in 1/2 nuclear genetic information to diploid.
The surface area of sperm cell is measured by micro-metric method or electron mircographs using stereo-logical method. While the volume will be measured by stereology or radio label volume exclusion method. The volume and surface area inversely proportional to cell size.
