What could most likely limit the flow of energy within a food web for an arctic ecosystem?
Limited sunlight due to the long winter nights could most likely limit the flow of energy within an arctic ecosystem. With less sunlight available for photosynthesis, primary producers may struggle to create energy, impacting the entire food web.
Which organisms in an ecosystem is likely to be found at the top of an energy pyramid?
In an ecosystem, organisms at the top of an energy pyramid are typically apex predators, such as lions, great white sharks, or eagles. These organisms occupy the highest trophic level, feeding on primary and secondary consumers while receiving the least amount of energy, as energy decreases at each trophic level due to energy loss through metabolic processes. Their position indicates they have few natural predators and play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of the ecosystem.

What is the most likely cause of an ecosystem from grasslands to farmland?
Tractors
What might you expect in this ecosystem?
Soil quality is likely very good
What would one likely find in an ecosystem that has remained relatively unchanged for hundreds to thousands of years?
None of the "following".

A biologist studies an ecosystem and finds that it has very few trophic levels What can you conclude about this ecosystem?
it is not a stable ecosystem
Who would be most likely to define freedom in the following way leaving behind traditonal roles and expectations defined by biology or society?
Margaret Sanger

An undisturbed ecosystem will most likely have the greatest amount of biomass at?
Trophic level 1, which is the producers (plants and algae) in the ecosystem. They convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis and form the base of the food chain, accumulating the most biomass.

Which of the following would most likely be spontaneous?
A reaction that produces heat
What would happen to a niche if the resources and energy in the ecosystem were not sustainable?
If the resources and energy in an ecosystem were not sustainable, the niche would likely experience a decline in species that depend on those resources. Over time, this could lead to population decreases or even extinction of certain organisms, disrupting the balance of the ecosystem. Additionally, the loss of biodiversity within that niche could affect other interconnected niches, resulting in broader ecological consequences. Ultimately, the entire ecosystem's resilience and functionality could be compromised.

Tractors
How is energy flow through an ecosystem related to trophic structure?
Energy flow in an ecosystem can be illustrated with a food web. For every step up in an ecosystem -- producer to primary consumer, for example, only about 10% of the biomass is conserved (a 200 pound cow would likely consume 2000 pounds of grass) . This means that there is a significant amount of energy lost between each trophic level. This explains why there are beyond trillions and trillions of krill (small aquatic organisms) in the oceans, but only a few blue whales.
What if a snake receives 200 calories of energy from eating a rabbit how much of that energy would be passed on to a hawk in the following food chain?
In a food chain, energy transfer between trophic levels typically follows the 10% rule, meaning only about 10% of the energy from one level is passed on to the next. If a snake receives 200 calories from eating a rabbit, it would likely utilize some of that energy for its own metabolic processes, leaving around 20 calories available. Therefore, if a hawk then eats the snake, it would receive approximately 20 calories of energy.
