Phosphate is mainly present in bones in animals, but is incorporated in most tissues of plants and animals - and through digestion gets absorbed and incorporated in a person's body and is dynamically present, being released and excreted through urine and feces. Thus excreted phosphate returns to the environment where it is available for uptake into plants and into the food web.

Does organic phosphate move through food webs?

yeah.


How does organic phosphate move through a food web?

Organic phosphate moves through a food web when plants take up inorganic phosphate from the soil and convert it into organic compounds during photosynthesis. Herbivores then consume the plants and assimilate the organic phosphate into their own tissues. Carnivores subsequently obtain organic phosphate by consuming herbivores. The organic phosphate is eventually returned to the soil through decomposition and excretion.


How does organic phosphate move through the food web?

Organic phosphate moves through the food web by being taken up by plants from soil or water. Herbivores then consume these plants, transferring the phosphate up the food chain when they are eaten by carnivores. Decomposers break down the organic matter of dead organisms, releasing phosphate back into the soil to be taken up by plants again.


Is it true that organic phosphrate cannot move through food webs?

yes


What is true of flagellates. They can make their own food in sunlight they can move through the air they can move through water they use pseudopods to capture food?

Flagellates are a type of protist that primarily move through water using one or more whip-like structures called flagella. While some flagellates, like euglena, can perform photosynthesis and make their own food in sunlight, others are heterotrophic and rely on consuming organic material. They do not move through air and do not use pseudopods to capture food; that characteristic is typical of amoebas and other protozoa.


How fast does food move through the pancreas?

Food does not move through the pancreas. While the pancreas produces substances that react chemically with food in the small intestines, the food does not come into contact with the pancreas.


What causes food to move through the small intestine?

the peristalis waves makes the undigested food to move.


How does the muscular system help the digestive system?

The digestive system has smooth muscle through out it, and they help move the food.


What do you call a organisms can move but do not make their food?

Organisms that can move but do not produce their own food are called heterotrophs. Unlike autotrophs, which generate energy through processes like photosynthesis, heterotrophs obtain their nutrients by consuming other organisms or organic matter. This group includes animals, fungi, and many bacteria.


Do muscles move food through your stomach?

Yes, the muscles squeeze the food through the digestive system :)


How do spyrogyra move?

They do not move because they can make their own food through photosynthesis.


Which kingdom does not move or contain chlorophyll and therefore cannot make their own food?

The Fungi Kingdom does not move or produce chlorophyll, so they cannot make their own food. They feed off of other\ things. For example, mold grows on foods and feeds off of that food.
