- Nitrogen deficiency stunts plant growth and causesleaves to turn yellow and then die. Why does nitrogendeficiency cause these symptoms? Hint: Think aboutwhich biological molecules incorporate nitrogen atoms.List and define four different terms that describe an organism’s sources of carbon and energy.Describe the differentiation between type I and type II in relation to ATP generation via the three energy systems?
- An animal’s inputs of energy and materials would exceedits outputs(A) if the animal is an endotherm, which must always take inmore energy because of its high metabolic rate.(B) if it is actively foraging for food.(C) if it is growing and increasing its mass.(D) never; due to homeostasis, these energy and materialbudgets always balanceIn detail describe the absorption of light energyOnly get 10% of energy transfers from one level to the next. Where does the energy go??
- What are modes of energy utilisation in organisms?In ecological systems, a rough rule of thumb is that when energyis transferred from plants to plant-eaters or from preyto predator, the efficiency is only about 10% (p. 72). Muchof this inefficiency is a consequence of the second law ofthermodynamics. Another way to think of this is that eating 1calorie of material from an animal is the ecological equivalentof eating 10 calories of plant material.Humans are considered omnivores because we can eat bothplants and animals. Our food choices have significant ecologicalimpacts. With this in mind, calculate the ecologicalenergy requirements for four different diets, each of whichprovides a total of 2000 dietary calories per day. What percentages of the calories in your own diet do youthink come from plant versus animal sources?
