Organisms undergo many different processes in order to be able to store energy and utilize that energy. Through which of the following processes is energy stored in the form of glucose?
photosynthesis
Which of the following is the correct formula for calculating power?
It isn't clear what you mean by "the following". Power is energy divided by time - the rate at which energy is converted or transferred.
The sun's energy drives which of the following processes?
Weather and ocean circulation.
What are the following processes transports on average the most energy from the ground to the atmosphere?
Radiation
How is waste heat is inevitable in ecosystems?
Energy is neither created nor destroyed by chemical processes, merely transferred. Since energy is also lost every time energy is transferred between organisms, that lost heat must go somewhere. That lost energy becomes waste heat in the environment.
What is transferred from organism to organism in a food chain?
energy is transferred from on animal to the other animal. Because energy can't be destroyed only transferred
A situation where energy is transferred from one place to another?
-- Sound energy is transferred from the bell of the trumpet to the inner-ears of everybody at the concert. -- Seismic energy is transferred from the subterranean motion along the fault to the surface, and eventually to the walls of any nearby structures. -- Electrical energy is transferred from the nuclear power plant to the coils in my toaster. -- Radio-frequency energy is transferred from the sector antenna on the monopole down to my cellphone. -- Light energy is transferred from the phosphor on the inside surface of my TV screen, to the rear inside surface of my eye. -- The energy from the pitcher's shoulder muscles is transferred, by the ball, to the pocket of the catcher's mitt. -- The electromagnetic energy generated by the nuclear processes in the sun's interior is transferred through space. A tiny fraction of it is intercepted by the earth, and sustains all life that we know of.
Which of the following is not a valid reason that less energy is transferred at each level of the food chain?
idont know
