It is not possible to determine the energy of the secondary consumer without additional information about the trophic levels and energy transfer in the ecosystem.

Question
Use the graph to answer the question.
A graph is shown with the x-axis labeled "Percentage of land under protection" going from 0 to 100 with 20 unit intervals. The y-axis is labeled "number of species" going from 0 to 100 with 20 unit intervals. A line is shown going from the bottom left of the graph to the top right, curving towards the top left as it does.
How would you communicate the correlation between the two variables?
(1 point)
Responses
As the number of species increases, the percentage of land under protection increases.
As the number of species increases, the percentage of land under protection increases.
As the percentage of land under protection decreases, the number of species increases.

Red iron oxide lines in rocks caused greater oxygen production.
Soils developed and allowed bacteria and microbes to grow (cause). In response, the bacteria and microbes contributed to the breakdown of rocks, releasing nutrients for plant growth and contributing to the further development of soils (feedback response).
Over millions of years, at a convergent boundary, rocks are pushed up against each other, creating a small set of hills. The hills are right on the ocean’s shoreline. The ocean water constantly beats on the rocks, taking small pieces of the rock back with it each time. The strong ocean winds also take away pieces of the rock constantly, carrying them into the ocean or other nearby areas. This causes the rock structure to have a unique, jagged, and beautiful shape.
