Answer:
(B) Energy transfer between trophic levels is almost always less than 20% efficient.
Explanation:
The ultimate source of energy on the Earth is the Sun. The energy coming from the Sun is captured by green plants by the photosynthesis. During photosynthesis sun energy is fixed into chemical energy (carbohydrate). So, in an ecosystem energy flow is unidirectional (from sun to the green plants). The fixed chemical energy from green plants is transferred to the herbivores then to carnivores through food. When one organism eats another organisms, only 10 % of the energy present in the organism is transferred as a food for the next organism and a large amount of energy is lost as heat into the environment. Thus, energy keeps on decreasing when stored energy moves from producers to top consumers. Thus, less than 20% energy transfer limits the trophic levels in most of the ecosystem.
Answer:
Just before the cat drops, it was stationery. Therefore it has energy of position called potential energy.As it drops, the Gravitational potential energy is converted to Kinetic Energy,The conversion mid- air is P.E to K.E to P.E to K.E to P.E to K.E, until it touches the ground. As it touches the ground all the energy is converted to P.E energy of position.
As it runs after mouse the P.E is converted back to Kinetic , energy of motion. As it feeds on the mouse , the chemical energy obtained as protein from mouse meat.This is later converted back to Mechanical energy as (kinetic and Potential energy) in the cat.
Explanation:
Answer:
both embryos have a notochord
Answer: When cells swell up
Explanation: Plants need carbon dioxide and <u>stomata allow the plant to take in carbon dioxide to perform photosynthesis</u>. The "lips" are actually individual cells (called guard cells) <u>that can swell up to open the stomata</u> or deflate to close them off.
Answer:
