Answer 1

The question is as follows,

A marine ecosystem is represented below (you will find the image in the attached files).

- Decomposers

6) Top carnivore:  sharks, dolphins, albatross

5) Third-level carnivores: squid

4) Second-level carnivores: larger fish

3) First-level carnivores: juvenile stages of fish, jellyfish, crustaceans, and sea stars

2) Herbivore: zooplankton and cockles

1) Primary producers: phytoplankton and seaweed

- Sun provides energy to producers

What is lost to the environment at each of the trophic levels of this ecosystem?

In a trophic web, 10% of a link's energy is transferred to the following link, and the other 90% dissipates to the environment as heat. The answer is heat.

What is the trophic web?

The trophic web is the interaction between different organisms involving transference of energy when some of them feed on the other ones.

The ones placed at lower levels pass energy to the ones at the higher levels.

Organisms at each level feed on the preceding one and become food for the next one.

The first link corresponds to a producer organism -autotroph-.

The following links are the consumers -heter0trophs-: herbivores and carnivores.

The last links are the decomposers that degrade organic matter from dead organisms.

Because it is a web, all organisms are in equilibrium until a change occurs. When a sudden change affects any of the involved links, there can be a cascade effect on the web.

Any change in a link population size (increasing or decreasing) will affect the superior links and the immediately anterior link.

What is the 10% rule?

From the energy that reaches the Earth's surface, only 0.1 or 1% is absorbed by autotroph organisms.

This small percentage of energy flows through all organisms in the ecosystem -from autotrophs to heter0trophs- until it dissipates in the environment.

Only 10% of energy is transferred from one level to the next one. The remaining 90% is dissipated as heat to the environment. This assessment is called The 10% rule.

This rule states that only about 10% of the energy stored as biomass at one trophic level, ends up as biomass at the next trophic level.

The progressive reduction of energy determines the number of trophic levels (4 or 5).

Heat is lost to the environment at each of the trophic levels of this ecosystem.

n this experiment the bag contains a hypertonic solution (sucrose), while the beaker only contains water. If you leave the bag inside of the beaker for approximately 45 minutes; the movement of water will occur from the ________ to the _________.

Answers

The water will move from beaker to the bag of sucrose due to concentration difference.

In which direction the water will move?

The movement of water will occur from the beaker to the bag because the concentration of water is lower in the bag and higher in the beaker. So due to the process of diffusion, the water will move from the higher concentration region to lower concentration region.

So we can conclude that the water will move from beaker to the bag of sucrose due to concentration difference.

Suggest how the pH of plaque ( of teeth) could be measured safely.​

Answers

The aim was to study the effect of different starch-containing food items on pH changes in dental plaque. The pH was, in 10 subjects, simultaneously measured at various occasions up to 60 min in: (1) two approximal spaces in the premolar-molar region with the microtouch method, and (2) pooled samples of dental plaque with the sampling method. Six starchy products were tested: (1) spaghetti, (2) macaroni, (3) potato, (4) rice, (5) unsweetened bread, and (6) sweetened bread. A glucose chewing tablet and a mouthrinse with 10% sucrose served as controls. Saliva was collected for HPLC analysis of maltose and maltotriose when testing the spaghetti, rice and unsweetened bread. The glucose tablet and the sucrose solution resulted in the greatest pH drops. However, all starchy products resulted in obvious pH falls, which were most pronounced for sweetened bread, followed, in order, by unsweetened bread and potato. Significantly more maltose and maltotriose were found in saliva after consumption of unsweetened bread compared to spaghetti. There seemed to be a relationship between the amount of starch hydrolysates in saliva and the area of the plaque pH curve (AUC). The microtouch method gave consistently lower pH values than the sampling method. Both methods, however, ranked the eight test products roughly in the same order with respect to minimum pH, maximum pH decrease and AUC.

Answer:

the other organism when they died with would not able to be decompose  the they dead bodies would be left to rot . And then they food cycle would not be able to grow .In short food chain would disssolve

Explanation:

When organisms die, decomposers break down the dead bodies and the nitrogen is released and another type of bacteria breaks it down into gaseous nitrogen. Without decomposers and other types of bacteria, the nitrogen cycle would not be maintained. Plants would die off and the food chain would dissolve. As plant are primary producers

1. A 42,000 kg train car travelling at 10 m/s toward a stationary train car with a mass of 40,000 kg. After collision, the two sticked and moved together with the same speed. Solve for the final speed of the combined object after collision and identify their direction.​

Answers

Given,

A 42,000 kg train car travelling at 10 m/s toward a stationary train car with a mass of 40,000 kg.

What is momentum?

Momentum is a product of the mass of a particle and its velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity which means it has both magnitude and direction. Its formula = mass × velocity.

Solve for momentum:

M= (42,000kg)(40,000kg) / (10m/s)

M = 42,000 kilograms - 40,000 kilograms

M = 2,000kg

M = 2,000 kg ÷ 10m/s

= 200m/s

-Thus they collison at the same speed of 200m/s.

Answers

Answer: Water molecules are strongly attracted to each other, so they remain condensed (that is, a liquid, and not a gas) at higher temperatures. Dihydrogen and dioxygen have no strong attractive forces to hold the molecules together, so they exist as gases at room temperature and pressure (that is, in our everyday lives).

why are stars not distributed uniformly throughout the universe

Answers

Kinda the same reason as people aren’t distributed uniformly throughout the globe.

People like to live with people. They are attracted to other people. They are attracted to living near friends, family, and loved ones. So they cluster into villages, towns, and cities.

In the case of stars, the “attraction” comes from the force of gravity. But it’s the same basic principle — take something uniform, let attraction happen, and the population will start to cluster. Into star clusters, galaxies, and galaxy clusters

why farmers are manuring at the roots of the plant​

Answers

Answer:healthy plants

Explanation:the farmers use raw manure on their fields because it is an excellent source of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K), which are all nutrients necessary for plants to grow and thrive.

Answer:

The reason why farmers put manure at the roots of the plants is because that is how most of the nutrition is taking up into the plant.  Most of the minerals in the earth are absorbed into the plant for usage by the roots which is why the manure would be placed where the roots are.  However, it's important to not put too much because that can actually cause the roots to get burned because there is too much minerals so it's important to keep a balance.

Typical gram-negative bacteria are more impervious to the action of antimicrobial chemicals than are gram-positives because gram-negatives have a(n)

Answers

As gram-negative bacteria have an extra layer of cell wall therefore it is less sensitive towards antimicrobial chemicals than gram-positive bacteria.

Why gram-positives are less impervious to the action of antimicrobial chemicals?

Gram-positive bacterial cell wall is made up of only the peptidoglycan layer and it does not have an extra barrier that protects it from some antimicrobial chemicals.

Gram-negative bacteria have two layers of cell wall peptidoglycan layer and a lipopolysaccharide layer.

Thus, gram-negative bacteria have an extra layer of cell wall.

What is the indole positive?

Within seconds of introducing the reagent, a pink color appears in the reagent layer on top of the agar deep, indicating a positive indole test. The reagent layer will stay yellow or slightly hazy if the culture is indole negative.

When an organism converts sulfur to hydrogen sulfide, the hydrogen sulfide reacts with iron to generate ferric sulfide, a black precipitate. The presence of blackening in the medium suggests a reduction in sulfur, which is a +ve sign.
