The existence of individual organisms on earth is maintained by the?
flow of both energy and matter
What scientific information explains how matter and energy flow through the biosphere?
The world is round so it has no end so energy goes in a circle around the earth.
Identify the three basic themes in biology?
Structure and Function Unity and Diversity Homeostasis
Which type of ecological pyramid best traces the flow of matter through an ecosystem?
The trophic pyramid describes the flow of energy through a system from producers all the way up to predators. This is the best model because it follows the rule of ten.
The flow of energy from one organism to another?
sound
How can you use the flow of matter or energy in a system to predict a chang in that system?
how can we use the flow of matter or energy in a ayatem to predict a change in that system
How is the movement of matter through the biosphere difference from the flow of energy?
Unlike the one way flow of energy, matter is recycled within and between ecosystems.
How is the flow of energy through a community different from that of matter?
When an animal eats a plant as food, both energy and matter are passed from one organism to another in a food web. Unlike the flow of energy in a food web, however, the flow of matter is not one way. Matter cycles within a community.
What form of energy can flow in the absence of matter?
wind
What are biogeochemical?
the flow of matter and energy in the physical environment
What is the flow of energy from one materials to another?
Matter.
How does matter and energy flow through living system and the physical environment?
No it does not matter
Does heat energy occur when heat energy flows from warmer matter to cooler matter?
yes the heat will flow threw, but not create energy
How is the movement if matter through the biosphere different from the flow of energy?
Unlike the one way flow of energy, matter is recycled within and between ecosystems.
What is the major different in flow of energy versus the flow of matter?
Matter is always in the form of particles (atoms, molecules, etc.). For it to flow, the atoms have to move from one place to another. Energy can move from some matter to other matter without moving the matter. Example: an ice cube warming up but not yet melting has energy flowing into it, but matter is not flowing. When it starts to melt, matter (in the form of water molecules) flows out.
Is a system in which both matter and energy flow into and out of the system.?
"open"
What is the system in which both matter and energy flow into and out of the system?
"open"
