Organisms at the first trophic level ________. a. capture energy from a nonliving source b. are eaten by organisms at lower trophic levels c. are shown at the top of an energy pyramid d. are consumers
Energy flows from one trophic level in the food chain to another, at each level only _____% (10, 1, 90) of the energy or biomass is transferred efficiently for use in the next level. The rest is either expended by cellular respiration or lost as feces.
Only about 10 percent of the energy from each level of an energy pyramid is available to the trophic level above it. (The rest is used to power life processes or is lost as heat .) If the primary producers have ,000 units of stored energy , how much energy would you expect to be transfered to first-level , second level , and third -level consumers ? Fill in the boxes with your answers.
As a rule of thumb, about one-tenth of the energy or biomass consumed is stored at each trophic level. About how many kg of feed should it take to produce 1 kg of chicken meat that we eat? How much more energy should it take to provide you a meal of meat compared to vegetables?
An estimated 1000 kg of plant plankton are needed to produce 100 kg of animal plankton. The animal plankton is in turned consumed by 10 kg of fish, the amount needed by a person to gain 1 kg of body mass. i) explain why the amount of biomass declines at each successive trophic level.
Which trophic level in an aquatic ecosystem would contain the greatest amount of usable energy? Primary consumers located 150 meters below sea level. Primary producers located 80 meters below sea level. Primary producers located 45 meters below sea level. Primary consumers located 40 meters below sea level.
In an ocean ecosystem, the biomass of an algal community is approximately 3000 kilograms. It can support a food chain up to 4 levels. Considering an efficiency at an average of 10% in passing on energy from one trophic level to the next level, how much biomass of the fourth trophic level can be maintained.
As energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next, substantial amounts of energy are lost to/asa. undigestible biomass.b. heat.c. metabolism.d. All of the above.
“The pyramid of energy is always upright” states that A)The energy conversion efficiency of herbivores is better than carnivores. B)The energy conversion efficiency of carnivores is better than herbivores C)Producers have the lowest energy conversion efficiency D)Energy conversion efficiency is the same in all trophic levels
What does each pie slice represent? a. Amount of energy available to support each trophic level b. Amount of energy that can be converted to biomass at a higher trophic level c. Amount of energy available from the sun d. Inefficiency of energy flow from one trophic level to the next
Which of the following statements about nutrient inputs and eutrophication is FALSE? O Fossil fuel combustion (e.g. burning gasoline, coal) releases nitrogen which contributes to eutrophication The production of chemical farm fertilizers through industrial fixation of N, is a major source of bioavailable nitrogen and cause of eutrophication O The mining of phosphate rock for fertilizers is a major source of bioavailable phosphorus and cause of eutrophication O Eutrophication can cause oxygen depletion in aquatic systems by increasing the growth of algae which consume a lot of oxygen The production of livestock at large-scale (which generates a lot of manure) can be a cause of eutrophication
As a general rule, how much energy is lost in the transmission of energy from one trophic level to the one immediately above it? a. 1% b. 10% c. 90% d. 50%
