In a food web what organism make up the first trophic level?
The first trophic level ofof a food web is almost always made of autotrophic organisms.
Energy is always transferred through heat from?
In an exothermic reaction, energy is transferred from the substance reacting to its surroundings. Some common exothermic reactions are burning things, making ice cubes, and mixing water and strong acids.
Will similar investigations or expirements always have the same results?
no because they could do in different environment and could change.
Characteristics that are always present in a living organism include cells metabolism reproduction homeostasis and?
movement, respiration, responses to changes in the environment, excretion,
Why must there be more biomass at the lowest trophic level?
Consumers do not use 100% for growth as some of the energy they use is used to maintain body temperature but also to contract muscles. As energy cannot be created or destroyed but only transferred the amount of energy as you go up the chain must decrease, so the primary producer must have the most biomass.
Why can't there be unlimited number of trophic levels?
There are not enough organisms in every environment to keep trophic levels going. For instance, there is always a top predator that has virtually no enemies.
What is trophic level in Biology?
Each step in a food chain or food web. Autotroph are always trophic level 1.
Do primary consumers always make up the first trophic level in a food web?
No. Producers always make up the first trophic level in a food web or chain.
Are producers always the largest level in a trophic pyramid?
true
In an ecosystem the first trophic level always belongs to what?
producers- plants
What variables always decreases as it flows through the trophic levels?
Energy
Is Heat always transferred from a cooler or a warmer area?
It is transferred from a warmer area.
Do primary consumers make up the first trophic level in a food web?
No. Producers always make up the first trophic level in a food web or chain.
What level is autotraph on the trophic level?
Autotrophs are always in the first level, they're the producers.
Will be transfer or will be transferred?
"Will be transferred"; a passive voice verb form always requires the past participle of the prinicpal verb, and the past participle of "transfer" is "transferred".
What is the ratio of third order consumers to producers?
It depends on the environment that you are planning on deriving this data from. But normally there will always be at least three times the amount of producers vs. third order consumers to support enough energy throughout the trophic levels.
Does the amount of energy change at each level in the food pyramid?
Yes, it does. In many ecological pyramids, the producer form the base and the successive trophic levels make up the rest. Energy pyramids are always slopping because less energy is transferred from each level than was paid into it.
