<h2>Sugar beet harvest </h2>

Explanation:

Sugar beets have to be harvested and stockpiled in September because  they have to get the root out of the ground before the ground freezes

  • Sugar beets are harvested with two primary pieces of equipment
  • The defoliator removes the green leaves and slices a slab from the top of the sugar beet root
  • This removed slab is the growing point of the sugar beet and contains high levels of impurities, which impede the factories ability to extract the sugar from the remainder of the harvested root
  • The sugar beet root is then harvested with a pinch wheel harvester, which pinches the root and lifts from the soil
  • The sugar beet harvester also separates some soil and conveys the sugar beet into a truck to be transported to a receiving station

Give one example of how the testing of Platismatia glauca could benefit future ecological research of this forest
Stels [109]

Answer:

Platismatia is a genus of lichens that often is found in forests. Lichens may be beneficial for forests because they provide food and nutrients for other species by fixing atmospheric nitrogen

Explanation:

The lichens are the result of mutualism between photosynthetic organisms (algae or cyanobacteria) and fungi species.

Distinguish among eons, eras, periods, and epochs, using specific examples.
andrew11 [14]

In a particular context, “epoch” can refer to a particular point of time characterized by a particular event/series of events.

While “era” refers to a period of time characterized by events in a chronological order.

Thus, an “era” can encompass more than one “epoch”.

“Period” can refer to a short interval of time or a very long interval of time.
For example:

<span>“My period of happiness….”“The period of Four Horsemen…”</span>

<span>“Eon” </span>refers to an indefinitely long time. <span>Eon is presumed to consist of at least 2 eras.</span>

If one million kilocalories of energy are stored in producers in an ecosystem, how many kilocalories can be transferred to terti
Mashcka [7]
The answer is 1000 kilocarolies.  It is important to keep in mind that Energy is passed up the food chain from one trophic level to the next but a lot of it is lost along the way. Energy is passed up the food chain from one trophic level to the next. However, only about 10% of the total energy stored in organisms at one trophic level is actually transferred to organisms at the next trophic level. Therefore; if the producers have 1 million kilocarolies, then  the energy transferred to the primary consumer will be 100,000 kilocalories (10% of a million), and the energy transferred to the secondary consumer will be 10,000 kilocalories (10% of 100,000) and the energy to the tertiary consumer will be 1000 kilocarolies (10% of 10,000).
