Sunlight is the main change! sun light cannot penetrate into the deep layers of the ocean and availability of oxygen is also low there. this causes the considerable amount of organisms to live in the upper layers of the ocean and we can only observe decomposing organisms in the deeper layers!
Answer:
The correct answer will be- the free energy change will be +13 kcal/mol.
Explanation:
The free energy change of a chemical reaction is the measure of the spontaneity of the reaction in which the negative value of free energy represents that reaction is exergonic while positive value represents that reaction is endergonic.
In the given question, if the free-energy change is 13 kcal/mol for the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP + Pi which releases energy used by the cells then reversal of the reaction that is the formation of ATP molecules from the ADP and Pi requires energy which will be the same energy required to break the ATP.
This shows that 13kcal/mol energy will be used but with a positive sign as the energy is needed or the reaction is endergonic.
<em>both producers and consumers are the part of ecosystem but finally either directly or indirectly they become food of the decomposers that may be micro-organisms or the larger parasite or saprophyte ..
organisms taking food from living host are parasite while taking food from dead matter are saprophytes..</em>
