Ⓒ Sally A. Morgan/Ecoscene/CORBIS According to the Costa Rica Rainforests Outward Bound School, the rain forests of the world are disappearing at a rate of 80 acres per minute, day and night. In December 2000, 53,694,993 acres of rain forest were destroyed. Which of the following facts about rain forests illustrates the negative effect of their destruction on the environment? OA. Ranchers clear and use the land for pastures for their cattle because land is inexpensive.

AP Environmental Science Primary Productivity Problems   Net Primary Productivity efficiency can be calculated for terrestrial producers when values for insolation energy, respiration loss and gross productivity are known. Use the equations below to answer the following problems:   Net Primary Productivity = Gross Productivity – Respiration Loss   Efficiency = .          NPP           . X 100                      Insolation Energy   In a rice paddy in Southeast Asia, the insolation energy is 6,000,000 calories/m2/day. The gross productivity of the rice is 0.012 grams/cm2/day, and the respiration loss is 20 percent. One gram of rice is equivalent to 1000 calories.   Calculate the net primary productivity of the rice.               Find the efficiency of photosynthesis by the rice.   Could you mostly help me set it up and find it? So I can learn how to do it.

Mimicry occured in nature as species tahe advantageous characteristics from other species to help them survive. As humans, we have also taken this idea of biomimicry and used nature as a design inspiration to sustainably solve human problems. some examples include: whale fins as wind turbines, shark skin materials for marine vessels and swimwear, burrs stick to animals and velcro, water collecting beetles and environmental application. Questions 1. Identify a real world challenge and think about potential designs to solve or help with this challenge. 2. research nature's models - what biomimicry can we see in nature for this challenge? 3. describe a model that could aid in the real world issue and have potential sustainable application.

T-Mobile LTE O 1:44 PM A farmer decides to plant Xmas trees. She estimates each one will sell for $75. -How much will the farmer earn on 10 acres if she can grow 50 per acre. -If each tree requires 2 gallons of H20 per day, how much water is required to grow all trees for a year. || December 2, 2022 at 1:44 PM

P Parchment Exchange - Leader arn.edgenuity.com/player/ ce - SC5181 A 21 Unmark this X + gestion 01 M DELL TEXTO A ก A mature oak and hickory forest ecosystem experienced an intense forest fire that burned the existing trees the ground. Despite the intensity of the fire, some soils remained. Total biomass, species richness, and net productivity were reduced significantly after the initial disturbance. There have not been any more fires since. Twenty years after the fire, there are medium-sized trees and bushes growing, as well as ferns and flowering plants. The forest is in the middle, or intermediate, stage of succession. How has the current stage of succession affected total biomass, species richness, and net productivity of the ecosystem? O Total biomass remained the same, species richness decreased, net productivity remained the same O Total biomass increased, species richness increased, net productivity decreased O Total biomass increased, species richness increased, net…

ENDANGERED ANIMAL is  CA least tern bird  1-3 bases on the bird Reasons for Endangerment Explain the various factors that have led to this species’ current plight. Expand on these points individually, based on your species’ unique story. Domino Effects As we’ve learned, species are not islands unto themselves; they are integrated with many other organisms in trophic relationships, mutualisms, competition, etc. How is the absence of this species (or its lowered population size) likely to impact the other members of its habitat? (If findings specific to this point are available, please include them – otherwise, I’m asking you to speculate based on what you’ve learned about the biology of this organism.) Conservation Efforts Discuss past, current, and proposed efforts to conserve this species. Are these strategies effective? Are they realistic? What is the outlook for this organism?
