A Balanced Ecosystem - An Aquarium The term ecosystem describes both the living and non-living components of an area that interact with one another. All the components are inter-dependant in some way with each other. An ecosystem may be aquatic or terrestrial. In an aquatic ecosystem rocks are needed for shelter and plants provide oxygen for fish. An ecosystem is balanced when the natural animals and plants and non-living components are in harmony- i.e. there is nothing to disturb the balance.

¬¬¬Biology Exam 4 Energy III – Cellular Respiration (Krebs Cycle and Electron Transport Chain) A. The Krebs Cycle a. Energy i. The net gain of 2 ATP and 2 NADH represents an effective transfer of 20 kcal of energy to ATP (about 10 kcal each) about 80 kcal of energy to NADH (about 40 kcal each)‚ for a total of about 100 kcal ii. Complete oxidation of glucose results in the release of 684 kcal of energy‚ significant energy still remaining in pyruvate b. Eukaryotes i. Pyruvate is transported

Ecosystem Preservation versus Conservation Earth is composed of many different ecosystems and each one is a "dynamic complex of plant‚ animal‚ and micro-organism communities interacting with the non-living environment as a functional unit" (Protecting Threatened Ecosystems‚ 2004). These ecosystems are an intricate part of the human lifecycle as they provide us with our water‚ food and energy. Since mankind is in a take and take some more relationship with the ecosystems‚ many of them have had their

Both Class Diagrams and Use Case Diagrams are used in the requirements determination of object oriented development. Object oriented development is an approach to system development that uses the object as the basic unit of systems analysis and design. Use case shows the relationships among actors and use cases within a system. Class diagrams are widely used to describe the types of objects in a system and their relationships The purpose of Use case diagram is that it shows the interaction

Lab: Energy Stored in Food Background Questions (5 points each = 10 points): 1. What happens to the molecules of the food that we eat during digestion? 2. What type of metabolism is this? Background information: In this lab we will attempt to set a variety of different types of food on fire and capture the heat energy that is given off. The heat energy from the burning comes form the energy stored in the chemical bonds of the food. The more energy in the bonds‚ the more heat the food will

Class Diagram A class diagram is at the heart of UML. It represents the core purposes of UML because it separates the design elements from the coding of the system. UML was set up as a standardized model to describe an object-oriented programming approach. Since classes are the building block of objects‚ class diagrams are the building blocks of UML. The diagramming components in a class diagram can represent the classes that will actually be programmed‚ the main objects‚ or the interaction between

However‚ in order for Encik Khalid to detect problems occur with the current or new system are based on the characteristics of bad system which are unreliable‚ irrelevance‚ not understandable‚ incomplete‚ inaccurate‚ and incomparable. The first characteristic is unreliable. Encik Khalid may detect the bad characteristic if the system is unreliable. This can be seen when the information received
