Draw a diagram of the model you created that shows how energy flows through a food web Use arrows to show the energy path flowing from one organism to another. Include a legend to provide details about color representation. For example, the green lines show energy flowing from producers.

Find the Flaw   Biomagnification in how the amount of toxin in an organism will increase as you move up a food chain. For example, a plant might only have a little toxin but an herbivore eats a lot of plants. So, now the herbivore has a medium amount of toxin. A carnivore eats a lot of herbivores and now the carnivore has a high amount of toxin and is sick.   The water cycle has five important processes. Evaporation which is water turning into vapor. Condensation and precipitation refer to water vapor turning into liquid or solid water. Subsurface water flow feeds rivers and streams. Surface runoff is water from precipitation gathering in streams. Streamflow moves water from mountains to oceans. The nitrogen cycle has four steps. Denitrification is where bacteria take nitrogen from the atmosphere and convert it into a form that is usable by other biological systems. Ammonification is where nitrogenous waste is converted into ammonia. Nitrification is where ammonia is converted into…

In the ecological study of food interactions how are the autotrophic beings called?

what is the flow of energy through a food chain that contains four tropic levels, one of which is a carnivore

Environmental Science Worksheets Food, Inc Fast Food to All Food. Answer all these questions. 21. Where do the large meat packing plants get most of their workers? Hidden Costs 22. How is the cheap cost of industrial food “dishonest” or misleading? 23. Many of the smaller companies that produced organic and healthier foods have been acquired by larger conglomerate-type companies. Organic food produces are becoming available in places like Wal-Mart. Explain whether this is a good or bad thing. From Seed to the Supermarket 24. What is Roundup, and what are Roundup-Ready soybeans? 25. Since the Roundup-Ready crop seeds are patented by Monsanto, what happens when a farmer attempts to save his seeds at the end of the season? 27. If pollen from a GMO field blows into and pollinates a non-GMO field, does Monsanto have a legal claim? The Veil 28. There has been little debate over the idea of patenting and controlling specific strains of food crops. What does the documentary attribute this to?…

State the second law of thermodynamics and apply it to the energy transfer from a trophic level to the next higher trophic level in a food chain.

Based off the graph given answer the question: What was the estimated energy output of the soybeans? A. 8kcal x 10^6 B. 6kcal x 10^6 C. 22kcal x 10^6

As scientists research and develop biofuels, they are faced with many tradeoffs. A plant's usefulness for biofuels depends on how much energy can be collected from the plant matter. In addition, growing plants on a large scale requires energy—such as the gasoline and power needed to run tractors and other harvesting equipment or the energy needed to create and distribute fertilizers and pesticides. An efficient biofuel would maximize the ratio of energy output to energy input.   The following graph illustrates the results of a 10-year study analyzing three different crops used in biofuel production. The data show how much energy was required to grow each crop on 1 hectare of land (energy input) and how much energy was recovered from the total crop on each hectare of land (energy output). A hectare is a measurement of an area of land and is roughly the same as 2.5 acres.   What was the estimated energy input of the grass? A. kcal x 10^6 B. 2kcal x 10^6 C. 8kcal x 10^6

When man eats fish which feeds on zooplanktons which have eaten small plants, who is the producer in this chain?
