How do chloroplasts and mitochondria permit a flow of energy through all organisms?

Plant and Animal cells have mitochondria which oxidized carbohydrate and use the released energy to build ATP molecules.


What is the energy flow and the biomass in the taiga ecosystem?

fast energy flow in the biomass


What does flow of energy mean?

Energy Flow is the movement of energy, which originally comes from the sun, from one organism to another.


How is carbon related to the flow of energy between the environment and organism?

There are several different factors that control the primary productivity of energy and biomass flow. Energy flow is the amount of energy that moves through a food chain. The energy input, or energy that enters the ecosystem, is measured in Joules or calories. Accordingly, the energy flow is also called calorific flow. In the study of energy flow, ecologists try to quantify the importance of different species and feeding relationships.


What is mechanistic and empirical models are?

Both of the flow models are used to predict the flow pattern of the complex fluid behavior.Empirical approach use experimental data to make flow models and the correlated parameters are dimensionless. For instance, Moody diagram, where friction factors are the function of Reynolds number. Empirical flow models are hard to improve and usually have errors in the range of 20%.Mechanistic flow models comparing to empirical one, talks about the complex flow occurrences in pipes. "The use of mechanistic models is expected to improve both its accuracy and extrapolation capability to any operation conditions" (Answers.com). The mechanistic model approaches include all important variables - laboratory and field data, which helps to predict methods.

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.

How is the carbon cycle related to energy flow in the ecosystems?

Carbon is the medium for energy flow within ecosystems. For instance, carbon dioxide exists within the air. Plants use energy from the sun to separate the carbon and the oxygen. The carbon is used to construct the plant and the oxygen is released into the air. An animal will then breath the oxygen and eat the plant. The animal will then combine the oxygen and carbon to recreate carbon dioxide and will use the energy that is given off to move or perform physical actions. It is a constant cycle that occurs within ecosystems. The sunlight is the source of the energy, and carbon allows the energy to be utilized by plants, then animals and then plants again (with more sunlight).


What is meant by energy flow in an ecosystem and state its importance in an ecosystem?

Why does the arrow in a food chain point towards the animal that eats the food?

What dos the cell wall do in the animal cell?

Animal cells do not have cell walls (plant cells do). The cell membrane of an animal cell controls the flow of substances in and out of the cell, and keeps the cell contents contained.


What is the uses of power lines?

They allow electrical energy to flow from the source (the power plant) to its destination (homes, businesses, etc)
