useless Flashcards
just get it over with
biomass
the total weight of an organism
productivity
the amount of energy that moves through the trophic levels
efficiency
doing something big with little energy
input of photosynthesis
sunlight, co2, h2o
output of photosynthesis
o2, glucose
input of cellular respiration
o2, glucose
output of cellular respiration
energy, co2, h2o
what organisms perform cellular respiration/photosynthesis
plants
differences in the types of pyramids
biomass=mass through trophic levels, numbers=population, energy=energy transfer
rule of 10
10% of energy is available for the next trophic level
how does solar energy relate to productivity
plants can reproduce faster if there is more sun
how does solar energy relate to biomass
if there are more plants animals can eat more and have more biomass
