Many of these animals‚ such as woodpeckers and skunks‚ eat insects‚ while others‚ such as racoons‚ foxes‚ and snakes‚ eat the small rodents and frogs. The small carnivores have 600 kilocalories per square kilometer per year to eat‚ but‚ again‚ nine tenths of these Kilocalories are used up in keeping the

There are several kinds of organisms‚ such as bacteria‚ fungi‚ termites‚ grasses‚ trees‚ herbivores/omnivores‚ carnivores and scavengers‚ which can be found in the African Grasslands. The decomposers are living things (often fungi‚ insects or bacteria) that break down dead animals or plants and animal wastes to obtain energy and nutrients. The producers are plants

In addition‚ cellular respiration takes place in both plant and animal cells while photosynthesis only takes place in plant cells‚ but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s less important to animals in the long

Trophic level 1 is composed of plants‚ or producers. Trophic level 2 consists of primary consumers‚ or animals that eat plants (herbivore). Trophic level 3 is composed of secondary consumers‚ or animals that eat the herbivores (carnivores). Carnivores that consume carnivores are placed in the trophic level 4. Omnivores are animals that consume both plants and other animals. 8. Define primary productivity and net primary productivity. Why are more individuals found at lower trophic levels than at

ABSTRACT Phylogenetic systematics is away to determine the relatedness between species by creating cladograms. In this study‚ we observed the difference between cladograms created with morphological traits and molecular DNA with respect to Felis cattus‚ Canis familiaris‚ Didelphis virginiana‚ Odocoileus virginianus‚ and the Equus caballus. The results demonstrated that although a species is similar or closely related in regards to morphological traits‚ it does not mean that their DNA composition
