The rate of primary productivity is equal to the rate of secondary productivity. Select one: True False

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

well they sound like 2 different things so i would say false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok... i have some more :|

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

ask away mate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of the following statements is true about photosynthesis and cellular respiration? Select one: a. Both processes use oxygen as a reactant. b. Plants perform photosynthesis. c. Plants perform cellular respiration. d. Plants perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

well seeing as photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts, and cellular respiration occurs in mitochondria which means that the chemical equations for the processes are opposite of each other i would day that d. Plants perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohk :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Unlike photosynthesis, cellular respiration: Select one: a. is an energy conversion b. does not require the intake of carbon dioxide c. involves primarily plants d. uses chlorophyll

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

hmmm research is proving a difficulty, they use chlorophyll and sunlight and glucose

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

photosynthesis ofc epitomises plants

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

plants breathe in co2 and emit o2

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

so i guess A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. yeh :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of the following geometric shapes best represents the change in energy and change in biomass from one trophic level to the next? Select one: a. pyramid b. dodecahedron c. sphere d. parabola

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

pyramid

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hah :) ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

While primary production refers to the synthesis of plant material, secondary productivity refers to the synthesis of: Select one: a. water. b. ecosystems. c. all abiotic factors. d. animal tissue.

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

Secondary production is the generation of biomass of heterotrophic (consumer) organisms in a system. This is driven by the transfer of organic material between trophic levels, and represents the quantity of new tissue created through the use of assimilated food.

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

'tis the rate of biomass formation or energy fixation by heterotrophic organisms, such as grazers and decomposers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its D?? :|

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

indeed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For most ecosystems, the ultimate source of energy is: Select one: a. plants. b. producers. c. the sun. d. water.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@PRAETORIAN.10

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

the sun bro :D

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

whats the next question?

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In natural systems, nitrogen is lost by denitrification. Predict which of the following processes will be most responsible for replacing lost nitrogen in an ecosystem. Select one: a. Erosion b. Fixation c. Combustion d. Weathering
