What happens to the remaining energy that is not used for life processes or lost as heat?
what happened to the energy that is not stored in your body
Most of the energy released during respiration is used for the?
life processes
Which are typically used for long term energy storage within a cell?
simple organic molecules are not necessary for the life processes of an organism.
What is stored in sugars that plants need in order to carry out the processes of life?
Energy.
Energy flow in an ecosystem is not cyclic because energy is?
lost as heat or used
What percent of energy is used by organisms for their life processes?
10%

life processes
How much of the food energy that is taken by an organism is used for its own life processes?
Producers use about 90 percent of the food energy they make during photosynthesis for their life processes.
How much of the food energy that is taken in by an organism is used for its own life processes?
Producers use about 90 percent of the food energy they make during photosynthesis for their life processes.

Producers use about 90 percent of the food energy they make during photosynthesis for their life processes.
Why does only a small fraction of the energy at one trophic level become available to the next trophic level?
About 10% of the energy in the lower trophic level is passed to the next higher level. The 80% of energy that is left is used by that lower level for life processes or is lost as waste.
Energy that is lost at each trophic level of an ecosystem is replenished by what?
10% of the energy is transfered from one trophic level to the next because the rest is used by the organism to grow and develop. Unless it is a plant then the plant uses 100% or close to 100% of the suns energy to grow.
Why is energy lost at each level of an energy pyramid?
10% 1% Energy from sun(100%)---->Producer--->Primary consumer-->Secondary consumer (90%) 9% 0.9%
Which are typically used for long term energy storage within a cell?
simple organic molecules are not necessary for the life processes of an organism.
What is the energy from ATP used by organisms to do?
it is used for short term bursts of energy in cellular processes
Why isn't all of the energy a green plant gets from the sunlight past to other organisms?
Some of the energy was used for life process and lost as heat
