Answer 2

A scientist fills a glass container with water and places an aquatic plant inside the container, then closes the lid and places the container in direct sunlight. The scientist observes small bubbles on the surfaces of the plant’s leaves on days 1 and 2, but no bubbles on day 3. The scientist concludes that the bubbles were caused by photosynthesis. Which substance should be added to the water in order for the bubbles to reappear?(1 point)

Answer 10

A river food chain works as follows:

Algae → insects → salmon → bears

The producers in the ecosystem produce 8,000,000 kilocalories of energy via photosynthesis. The bears need 100 kilocalories to survive. Can the ecosystem support the bears, and if so, how many individuals?

(1 point)
Responses

no, 0 individuals
no, 0 individuals

no, 0.8 individuals
no, 0.8 individuals

yes, 80 individuals
yes, 80 individuals

yes, 800 individuals

Answer 11

To determine whether the ecosystem can support the bears and how many individuals, we need to calculate how many kilocalories are transferred through the food chain.

In general, only about 10% of the energy at one trophic level is transferred to the next level. Here's how the energy is transferred in this food chain:

1. Algae (producers) = 8,000,000 kilocalories
2. Insects (primary consumers) = 10% of 8,000,000 = 800,000 kilocalories
3. Salmon (secondary consumers) = 10% of 800,000 = 80,000 kilocalories
4. Bears (tertiary consumers) = 10% of 80,000 = 8,000 kilocalories

Now we can find out how many bears can be supported with the 8,000 kilocalories available:

Total kilocalories available for bears = 8,000 kilocalories

Energy needed per bear = 100 kilocalories

Number of bears supported = 8,000 kilocalories / 100 kilocalories per bear = 80 bears

Therefore, the ecosystem can support the bears, and the correct response is:

C - yes, 80 individuals.
