Why are there fewer carnivores than herbivore?
Plants produce food Herbivores eat plants Carnivores eat herbivores Thus to keep everyone fed there have to be more plants than there are herbivores to eat them (or the herbivores would starve) and more herbivores than carnivores (or the carnivores would starve).
Why do herbivores have more energy than carnivores?
In order for a food chain to be stable, there must always be less biomass as you go up in trophic levels (i.e. from plants to herbivores to carnivores). This is basically because energy is always lost as it is transferred to each successive level, since herbivores use some of the energy they get from plants to stay alive (leaving less for carnivores who eat them), and so there will always be fewer carnivores than herbivores.
How do you compare the temperature on Saturn to earth?
-- smaller -- warmer -- closer to the sun -- more dense -- greater population of living things -- fewer moons -- fewer rings -- faster orbital speed
Why are producers first links of a food chain?
if there wasn't a producer there would be no energy being transferred. then the animals would weaken and start getting eaten by the carnivores. soon the herbivores species would be gone. then the carnivores all dieing. after all the animals would be dead.

What is the population growth have to do with Evolution?
With more individuals reproducing there will be more varied mutations that will occur. This gives nature more to work with in selecting survivors in changing environments. When species are reduced to fewer and fewer individuals there are fewer mutations for nature to choose from for survival and and the species may go extinct in a changing environment.
What are the disadvantages of living in remote area?
