Why did bear island provide a great opportunity to decipher entire food chains?

Sergio [31]

Due to the presence of limited number of species.

Explanation:

Bear island provide a great opportunity to decipher entire food chains because this island has many animals species which interact with each other or depend on one another due to the presence of less animals for feeding purpose. This island is isolated from the rest of the world so it provide a great opportunity to study the entire food chains that are present at that island. There is less number of species so knowing about their feeding choices is easier for the ecologists.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

A. Salamanders

Explanation:

Specialists species are species that can thrive in a unique and limited range of resources. They require a specific environmental condition to reproduce and survive in environment and also have limited or few diets they need for nutrition. These limiting characteristics put them at a disadvantage of being endangered and threatened.

Salamanders are endangered species that are fast going into extinction. They require wetland (freshwater pools) for reproduction to be possible, and feed mainly on insects. This makes them specialist species.

Ospreys, snapping turtles, and beavers are all generalist species. They can all thrive in a wide range of environmental conditions, and also have varieties of diets they can get nutrition from to survive.

Note: Question lack some information i have added full question with answer as picture. see attachment.

Answer:

d. In the first stage, macro-molecules are converted to monomers, and a small amount of ATP is produced.

e. In the second stage, monomers are broken down, and a small amount of ATP is produced.

c. In the third stage, fuel molecules are completely oxidized to CO2, and no ATP is produced.

Explanation:

When we take food a process starts which is called as cellular respiration. Through this process the food energy is converted into cellular energy which will further used by body. During all this process oxygen and glucose are converted into water and carbon dioxide and energy in this process is converted into ATP.
