What else can I help you with?
How do you think amoeboid organisms with skeletons such as the radiolarians move food to their cell bodies?
Amoeboid organisms with skeletons, such as radiolarians, move food to their cell bodies through a process known as phagocytosis. They extend their pseudopods around food particles, forming a food vacuole. The food vacuole is then transported to the cell body where digestion takes place.
Why are decomposes vital to all food webs?
Because they break dead organisms down into basic chemicals which can then be used by other organisms to grow and build their bodies, which can then be eaten by other organisms, thus continuing the food chain.
What is the work done when two bodies cover same height in different time?
In any ecosystem there are 3 types of organismsProducers > organisms that can make their own food using energy from the sun. Most producers are green plants and supply a food source for other organisms in the ecosystem.Producers > organisms that cannot make their own food and rely on other organisms for food source. All herbivores and carnivores are consumers.Decomposer > organisms that break down dead bodies and wastes which provide nutrients for producers to re-use. De composers include bacteria and fungi. These organisms allow recycling of matter within the ecosystem.Food chain-a food chain is a sequence of organisms feeding
What is the function of a pseudopia?
Pseudopods are temporary projections of the cell membrane used for movement and capturing food in unicellular organisms like amoebas. They are important for locomotion and engulfing prey through phagocytosis.
What type of energy is stored in the bodies of organisms?
Thermal energy is stored inside any living organisms because of their body heat
Do decomposers break down the bodies of dead organisms and recycle the materials in the food web?
Yes, that is the effect of what decomposers do. However they are only doing what every other organism does: eating to meet their nutritional needs! The eat the food they evolved to eat, which just happens to be dead organisms and the excrement of living organisms. Their dead bodies and excrement is then recycled to the food web and something else depends on that for its nutrition. You do the same thing, but humans evolved to eat a mixture of plants and animals that we have killed. Our dead bodies and excrement become food to decomposers. Occasionally our bodies are eaten by predators in our environment. Thus we are recycled to the food web and something else depends on that for its nutrition.
Why aren't people considered to be producers?
We don't make our own food. We to have to eat other organisms to make energy for our bodies.
What are the nutrient sources for some decomposers?
Decomposers, such as fungi and some bacteria, use waste products (feces) from other organisms and other the dead bodies of other organisms as food.
What is the name given to microscopic organisms in a stream?
The name given to microscopic organisms in a stream is plankton. Plankton are small organisms that float or drift in bodies of water, playing a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems as a food source for larger organisms.
What does edoplasm do for an organism?
Ectoplasm is a gel-like substance that helps with cell movement and shape changes in some organisms. It plays a role in amoeboid movement where the cell extends and retracts pseudopods for locomotion. Additionally, it can aid in capturing food particles by engulfing them in the cell membrane.
What happens to the dead bodies of plants and animal in an ecosystem?
They become food for other organisms, they decompose and ultimately the become part of the soil
Why do you need food energy?
Our bodies are living organisms that need fuel to operate. Food we digest gives us the energy to keep our body temperature controlled and to use our muscles.
