What happens when an organism from a higher trophic level eats an organism from a lower trophic level?
When an organism from a higher trophic level eats one from a lower trophic level, it gains energy and nutrients from the consumed organism. This contributes to the transfer of energy through the food chain and helps regulate population sizes in the ecosystem.
The percentage of energy in one trophic level that transfers to the next level in the average ecosystem is?
Studies of a variety of communities indicate that the net transfer of energy between tropic levels is roughly 10% efficient, although transfer among levels within different communities varies significantly.
What was the term used for groups of people whose birth determines their position in society?
The term used for groups of people whose birth determines their position in society is called a caste system.
What social science which deals with the behavior and thinking of organisms differs from sociology primarily in that it focuses on individual behavior rather than on group behavior?
Psychology is the social science that focuses on the behavior and thinking of organisms at the individual level, in contrast to sociology which primarily looks at group behavior and social structures. Psychology studies cognitive processes, emotions, and behaviors of individuals to understand how they think and act in various situations.
What percentage of the world's organisms are classified as bacteria?
It is estimated that over 50% of the world's organisms are classified as bacteria. Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms found in various environments, contributing significantly to global biodiversity.
What is the 3rd trophic level?
The 3rd trophic level contains organisms that are primary consumers, often herbivores that feed on producers from the 1st trophic level. These organisms are then consumed by predators at higher trophic levels.
An organisms position in the sequence of energy transfers in an ecosystem is known as its?
Trophic Level
What group of organisms the second trophic level of an ecosystem?
The group of organisms that occupy the second trophic level of an ecosystem is the herbivores. The herbivores eat the plants in the first trophic level and are then called primary consumers. -Gallo :)
At the trophic level would you expect to find these organisms?
Without specific organisms provided, it is difficult to determine their trophic level. However, plants are typically found at the primary producer level (first trophic level), herbivores at the primary consumer level (second trophic level), carnivores at the secondary or tertiary consumer levels, and decomposers at the final trophic level.
Organisms at the first trophic level are called?
Producers make up the first trophic level. A trophic level is each step in a food chain or food web is called a trophic level.
What percent of the energy available within on trophic level is transferred to organisms at the next trophic level when they are eaten?
1%
Why are the numbers of trophic levels limited?
At each trophic level in a food chain, a large portion of the energy is utilized for the maintenance of organisms which occur at that trophic level and lost as heat. As a result of this, organisms in each trophic level pass on less and less energy to the next trophic levels, than they receive.
An organisms trophic level is a measure of its ability to release nitrogen into the atmosphere?
No, Trophic level is the level it is in in the food chain depending on its habitat.
What is the crickets trophic level?
Crickets are a first order consumer. This means that they consume the organisms at the lowest trophic level which is the producers.
What is the relationship between the trophic level of an organism and the concentration of DDT in its body?
If an animal on a high trophic level eats other organisms on a lower trophic level effected by DDT, the animals level will be affected.
Which type of organisms are in the first trophic level?
Plants, algae, and bacteria occupy the first trophic level of an organism.
What do the organisms in each level eat?
1st trophic level=flowers,trees,grass & algae. 2nd trophic level=caterpillars,cow,grasshoppers & bettes. 3rd trophic level=humans,birds & frogs 4th trophic level=lions,dogs and snakes
