Almost all the energy in ecosystems comes from the sun.<span>Energy is captured by producers and then passed in a linear progression from one trophic level to the next. At each level, much of the energy escapes the ecosystem as heat. Unlike this one-way flow of energy, matter is recycled within and between ecosystems. Elements pass from one organism to another and among parts of the non-living environment through closed loops called biogeochemical cycles.</span>

How does a cow use the sugar molecules stored in the grass it eats?
11111nata11111 [884]

ANSWER: A living organism intakes food, it breaks down into mostly water and large organic molecules. These large organic molecules are Fat, Proteins, Glucose, Starch and Cellulose. These molecules are still not usable by the cells so the body breaks these large polymers into small monomers.

In cow's muscles, protein muscles are built by tapping 4 amino acid monomers. Fat muscles are built by tapping 3 fatty acid monomers and 1 glycerol molecule.

Cows use glucose molecules to mix with oxygen to release chemical energy in cellular respiration. Cows can make fat molecules and glucose molecules because fatty acids and glycerols are made up of same atoms, C, H and O.

Provided that there's no diagram, most molecules have particular areas on the molecules, called the "active area" that act as a lock to a particular substrate's molecular structure, providing the key. 
An enzyme's active area is only able to be "unlocked" by a certain substrate's "key".

a town has authorized the construction of a large sports complex at the top of a hill that is covered by a forest. How may the r
Tomtit [17]

If the forest on the hill is cleared, than the soil will lose its natural cover and protection from erosion. The soil will become much more exposed to the erosion, and its top layers will be moved away relatively easy and quickly. Those layers will move downwards, and practically will end up into the river that passes beside the hill. With a significant increase of sediments getting into the river, the river will start to deposit much more material. Also, the sediments will make a problem when there's heavy rainfall because the river will be able to get out of its river bad more easily and cause a flood. The water of the river will also became murkier, muddier, which will make it dark yellowish/light brownish in appearance when there will be rainfall.
