What is a fifth order consumer called?
Theoretically there could be some instances of these higher level consumers but effectively it all comes down to the transfer of energy between trophic (feeding) levels. No energy transfer is 100% efficient and biological transfers are generally much less so. Because there is less energy retained in each successive trophic level from that converted to biomass by plants from sun light each trophic level must consist of less biomass. there is less mass of antelope than of plants and less again of lions. if something ate lions there would be so few they could not support a population.
Which level of consumer has access to the smallest supply of energy?
Tertiary consumers, like top predators, have access to the smallest supply of energy in an ecosystem due to the energy loss that occurs as you move up the food chain. This is because energy is transferred and lost at each trophic level, resulting in less energy being available to higher-level consumers.
Which one has the lowest ionization energy magnesium (Mg) chlorine (C?
Chlorine is Cl, C is carbon. The first ionization energy of magnesium is less than that of chlorine.
Which has less kinetic energy warmer particles or cooler particles?
Cooler particles have less kinetic energy.
What is a consumer in biology?
In biology, a consumer is an organism that obtains energy by consuming other organisms or organic matter. Consumers are divided into different groups based on the type of food they eat, such as herbivores (plants), carnivores (animals), and omnivores (both plants and animals).
Why will fossil and nuclear fuels last longer if we also use renewable energy resources?
The more renewable energy we use the less non-renewable energy we use. And if we use less of it, it'll last longer.
Explain what is meant by the statement The amount of food energy passed along grows smaller and smaller as the chain becomes longer?
That statement is talking about a food chain and the amount of available energy: The most energy is available at the producer level. A producer is a plant that gets energy from the sun. The producer is able to make lots of energy by photosynthesis. Then the producer gets eaten by a first-level consumer. This is typically an herbivore (something that eats only plants) but could also be an omnivore (something that eats both plants and meat). Either way, when the first-level consumer eats the producer, it uses most of the energy for its life processes. Life processes are things like growing, having energy to go find more food, reproducing, and caring for young. Surplus energy is stored in the form of fat. This first-level producer gets eaten by a second-level consumer. This might be a carnivore (something that eats only meat) or another omnivore. The second-level consumer can only get the stored energy from its food. This means that there is less energy available to it than there was to the first-level consumer. This chain continues, with less and less energy being available at each step. Because of this fact, there needs to be many producers and low level consumers to support the higher level consumers.
Would the biomass of a tertiary consumer be larger or smaller than the biomass of a primary consumer?
The biomass of a tertiary consumer would be smaller than the biomass of a primary consumer. This is because energy is lost as it moves up the food chain through each trophic level. Tertiary consumers have less available energy and biomass compared to primary consumers.
How do consummers get energy?
Consumers get energy by eating other animals or plants, which have energy by the sun (for the plants) and animals use the plants to get energy. This means the consumer gets less energy, but without this energy, the consumer may severely suffer or die in that matter.Note- I'm glad that I could help with the answer.

What impact does the electric company card monopoly have on consumer choice and competition in the energy market?
The electric company card monopoly limits consumer choice and competition in the energy market by restricting access to alternative energy providers and pricing options. This can result in higher prices and less innovation in the industry.
What are the things which are leading to forest destruction?
Consumer consumption leades to this. The less we consume the less will be harmed Consumer consumption leades to this. The less we consume the less will be harmed
Why is less resistance for a conductor wire good?
Resistance in a wire restricts the movement of the electrons through the wire. This restriction transfers some of the energy contained in the electrons into the material of the wire and as this energy accumulates in the material of the wire the wire starts to heat. Therefore, there the energy that is transferred into the wire material is considered wasted because it is not available as electrical energy, which means the consumer who is using that wire is charge for the electrical energy that is waste. It the resistance is less in that conductor the consumer will save money.
Is health insurance reimbursement for alternative medicine increasing consumer choice or simply a matter of providing less expensive healthcare treatments?
Say what?! Increase consumer choice? Holler, why would anybody increase consumer choice in the first place?!
What happens to energy as you move from step in a chain or web?
The energy decreases as you move step to step in a chain The first organism (primary consumer) that eats the producer (green plants) will have the most number
How does buying items in bulk help a consumer?
the consumer pay less per item
Explain how energy passes through a food chain?
The first level of the food chain are producers who make their own food from photosynthesis. The herbivores and omnivores eat the first level and convert that energy for use. That level is also eaten by the omnivores and the carnivores who further convert the energy.
Why does color red is the first color of the rainbow?
because red has the less energy
