What is the difference between food chains and food webs?

1. Food webs show the flow of energy from producers to consumers, and food chains show the flow of energy from consumers to producers.

2.Food chains show a single path of energy in an ecosystem, and food webs show overlapping pathways of energy in that ecosystem.

3.About ten percent of the energy is passed on to the next trophic level in food webs, but in food chains, about ninety percent is passed on to the next trophic level.

4.Heat is lost when energy is passed on to the next trophic level in food chains, but in food webs, heat is not lost when energy is passed on to the next trophic level.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2. Food chains show a single path of energy in an ecosystem, and food webs show overlapping pathways of energy in that ecosystem.

Explanation:

A food chain is a single chain representing who eats whom in a system of organisms. A food web is a system of food chains, involving overlapping pathways of different foodchains.

Answer 2

Answer:

2.Food chains show a single path of energy in an ecosystem, and food webs show overlapping pathways of energy in that ecosystem.

Explanation:

A food chain shows only a targeted path, while a food web shows a more realistic path. See attached photos.

First picture: Food Chain: Notice how it only shows one path from producer to tertiary consumer.

Second picture: Food Web: Notice the many pathing that connects for certain organisms in the food web. It shows a more realistic distribution of energy in a real world scenario.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is -

variation, over population and adaption.

Explanation:

Natural selection is the process to which the various species and populations are able to adapt and change according the environmental changes. It is affected by three main factors that are variation, over population and adaption.

Variation: varion is one of the factor that pushes the population to change towards the beneficial variation in the population for their survivability and reproducing theirselves.

Overpopulation: over population increases the competition amon population and there fore there resources become limited so few have to change or their ways of utilizing resources.

Adaption: Adapting the change takes place due to any situation in environmental that put stress on the population allow them to adapt according the change or they will extinct.

Which statement best describes the step in muscle contraction when the sarcomere is the shortest?
A The sarcomere is contracted, and the actin and myosin filaments are partially overlapped.
B The sarcomere is relaxed, and the actin and myosin filaments are partially overlapped.
C The sarcomere is contracted, and the actin and myosin filaments are completely overlapped.
D The sarcomere is relaxed, and the actin and myosin filaments are completely overlapped.

Answers

Answer:

C The sarcomere is contracted, and the actin and myosin filaments are completely overlapped.

Explanation:

In rest, the tropomyosin inhibits the attraction strengths between myosin and actin filaments. Contraction initiates when an action potential depolarizes the inner portion of the muscle fiber. Calcium channels activate in the T tubules membrane, releasing calcium into the sarcolemma. At this point, tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament. When calcium binds to troponin C, troponin T alters the tropomyosin position by moving it and unblocking the binding sites. Myosin heads join the uncovered actin-binding points forming cross-bridges, and while doing so, ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate, which is released. Myofilaments slide impulsed by chemical energy collected in myosin heads, producing a power stroke. The power stroke initiates when the myosin cross-bridge binds to actin. As they slide, ADP molecules are released. A new ATP links to myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament.  Then ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, which starts a new binding cycle to actin. Finally, Z-bands are pulled toward each other, shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, producing muscle fiber contraction.

In the sarcomere, which is the contractile unit of skeletal muscles, there are

Thick myosin myofilaments in the central region belonging to the A band.  Thin filaments united to the Z lines, extending in the interior of the A band until they reach the border of the H band.  Thin actin filaments composing the I band, which belong to two sarcomeres adjacent to a Z line.

When the muscle contracts, the muscular fiber gets shorter and thicker due to the reduction in the length of the sarcomere. The H line and the I band get shorter. The Z lines get closer to the A band, meaning that they get closer to each other. A band keeps constant in length. This change is produced by movement mechanisms that involve a change in the relative position of actin and myosin filaments.

Identify and describe how bacteria, hormones, and nerves influence the health and activities of the GI tract

Answers

Answer:

The GI health is supported by a varied and rich population of bacteria. The GI processes are controlled by the coordinated efforts of the hormonal system and the neurological system. Digestion and absorption together break up diets into bodily nutrients. A healthy GI system requires a balanced diet, sufficient relaxation, and frequent physical activity, to perform best.

Explanation:

Bacteria along the GI tract have a wide range of possible health benefits, including the production of vitamins, ion absorption (Ca, Mg, and Fe), pathogens protection, histologic development, improved immune systems, and fermentation of "no-digestible food" Bacteria have a number of potential functions.

During the digestion and absorption process hormones control the different digestive enzymes, which are secreted in the stomach and bowel. In reaction to the consumption of food, for example, the  hormone gastrin induces stomach acid output. The somatostatin hormone prevents stomach acid secretion.

Woman's genotype : AO or

[tex] { | }^{a} i[/tex]

When

the children can not have O blood

The children cannot have B blood

Which statement about inheritance is true?
Girls get most of their traits from their moms; boys get most of their traits from their dads.
Male offspring will always have an X-linked genetic disease if the mom is a carrier.
Fathers always determine the gender of the offspring in humans.
Males never have Y chromosomes.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the third statement.

Explanation:

In humans, the males possess one X and one Y chromosome, while the females possess two X chromosomes. Thus, the female always donates X chromosome to the gamete. In any case, the female always generates a similar kind of gamete. While the male either pass X or the Y chromosome to the progeny.  

When the gamete with the X chromosome combines with the female gamete than the offspring would possess XX chromosomes and will be a female. On the other hand, when the gamete comprising the Y chromosome combines with the female gamete than the offspring would possess the XY chromosome and will be a male. Thus, it is the father who determines the gender of the offspring.

Wrong answersGirls get most of their traits from their moms; boys get most of their traits from their dads.

This is wrong. Parents gender does not affect traits passed on.

Males never have Y chromosomes.

This is wrong, Males have to have a Y chromosome. (XY)

Male offspring will always have an X-linked genetic disease if the mom is a carrier.

This is wrong. The male offspring have a 50/50 chance if the mother is a carrier, if she has the deseace than all the sons will have the decease.

Correct answerFathers always determine the gender of the offspring in humans.

This is because the mom is XX and the dad is XY. The mom gives the X in the gene, and the dad gives the X for daughters (X,X) and gives the sons a Y (X,Y) Males are always XY.

If the mom is a carrier, h,  then it will get passed down  50% of the time, and when it gets passed down to the males, they wiill have the deseace. If the mom passes the deacease down to the daughters, 50% will be a carrier too if the dad does not have the deseace. If the dad has the deacease, than 50% of the daughters will have the deacease, and the other 50% will be carrier, and still, 50% of the sons will have the deacease, while the other 50% will be completely clean. So in total 25% of the offspring will be a carrier, 50% will have the deacease, and the other 25% will not have the deacease or be a carrier.

Which type of cell adhesion is useful for anchoring cells together and defending against shear forces on tissues

Answers

Answer:

Desmosomes

Explanation:

Desmosomes are cellular structures that adhere to neighboring cells. Its function is to hold the epithelial cells together, associating the intermediate filament cytoskeletons of neighboring cells, thus forming a transcellular network with high resistance to mechanical traction. It thus allows the cells to maintain their shape and the epithelial sheet to exist in a stable form. Inside cells act as anchoring sites for intermediate rope-shaped filaments, which form a structural network in the cytoplasm providing a certain rigidity. Through these junctions the intermediate filaments of the adjacent cells are indirectly connected forming a continuous network that extends throughout the tissue.

C. CAT-GTA-TGG

D. CAU-GUA-UGG


Please explain, I'm very confused about this topic and I want to learn about it. No false answers or you will immediately be reported. Thanks in advance!

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The correct answer would be option A - GUA-CAU-ACC

Looking at the table of codons, for the amino acid Val, the first base (which is on the 1st column in the 6th row) is G while the second base (2nd column, 2nd row) is U. The third column can be any of U, C, A, or G (6th column, 4th row). Hence, GUA is plausible

For the amino acid His, the first base is C (1st column, 2nd row), the second is A (4th column, 4th row) while the last could be any of the 4 bases. Hence, CAU is plausible.

For the amino acid Thr, the first base is A (first column, 5th row), the second is C (3rd column, 2nd row) while the 3rth could be any of the 4 nucleotide bases. Hence, ACC is plausible.

Therefore, the correct sequence of nucleotides for Val-His_Thr would be GUA-CAU-ACC

Round to the nearest tenth. 11.1m 130 Area = [ ? ] m Thirty years ago, the original owner of Greenacre, a lot contiguous to Blueacre, in fee simple, executed and delivered to his neighbor an instrument in writing which was denominated "Deed of Conveyance." In pertinent part it read, "[The owner] does grant to [the neighbor] and her heirs and assigns a right-of-way for egress and ingress to Blueacre." If the quoted provision was sufficient to create an interest in land, the instrument met all other requirements for a valid grant. The neighbor held record title in fee simple to Blueacre, which adjoined Greenacre. Twelve years ago the owner's son succeeded to the original owner's title in fee simple in Greenacre and seven years ago the neighbor's daughter succeeded to the neighbor's title in fee simple to Blueacre by a deed which made no mention of a right-of-way or driveway. At the time the neighbor's daughter took title, there existed a driveway across Greenacre which showed evidence that it had been used regularly to travel between the main road and Blueacre. Blueacre did have frontage on a side road, but this means of access was seldom used because it was not as convenient to the dwelling situated on Blueacre as was the main road. The driveway originally was established by the neighbor. The neighbor's daughter has regularly used the driveway since acquiring title. The period of time required to acquire rights by prescription in the jurisdiction is ten years. Six months ago the son notified the neighbor's daughter that the son planned to develop a portion of Greenacre as a residential subdivision and that the daughter should cease any use of the driveway. After some negotiations, the son offered to permit the daughter to construct another driveway to connect with the streets of the proposed subdivision. The daughter declined this offer on the ground that travel from Blueacre to the main road would be more circuitous. The neighbor's daughter brought an appropriate action against the son to obtain a definitive adjudication of the respective rights of the daughter and the son. In such lawsuit the son relied upon the defense that the location of the easement created by the grant from the original owner to the neighbor was governed by reasonableness and that the son's proposed solution was reasonable.The son's defense should:____________ A group of high school students who are anti-LGBTQ rights met to discuss issues related to LGBTQ.
