This model chose to include certain features and exclude other features. For example, this simulation only includes rabbits, wol

The creator focused on these data elements and not others because he was trying to create a food chain instead of a food web.

In the ecosystem, the living and non-living things interact over time leading to exchange of energy.

A food chain can be defined as the steps through which energy transfer occurs in an ecosystem.

The energy flows from the producers (grass), primary consumers, (rabbits) and then the secondary consumers (wolves).

The energy flow is indicated with an arrow thus,

grass ---> rabbit -----> wolves.

Food chain, therefore includes linear sequence of organisms.

Food web on the other hand illustrates a complex feeding relationship within the ecosystem.

The food web is made up of a prey that can be eaten by more than one predator.

Therefore, even though there where other predators of rabbits and other food sources for rabbits, he chose only few features to create a food chain.

What does the process of gene duplication and divergence refer to? (select all that apply)?
Debora [2.8K]

It refers to making or crating new genes in form of mutation in duplicates of old genes. It is also a mechanism in major way through new genetic material is generated during evolution. The duplication happens in event termed unequal crossing over or recombination between misaligned homologous chromosomes during meiosis.

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).

It seems that you have missed the necessary details and options for us to answer this question so  I had to look for it. Anyway, based on the given description above, the molecule which is considered the "gas" that powers a cell's "engine" is called the Adenosine Triphosphate or ATP. Hope this helps.
