If the grasshoppers in a certain area receive 500 million joules of chemical energy from the plants they eat in one day, what is a reasonable estimate of the amount of chemical energy the frogs in the same area will get from their food ?

50 million joules.

Explanation:

In a food chain, as the trophic level rises, the energy consumed decreases. As a result, each trophic level can only consume 10% of the energy of the previous trophic level.

With that, we can arrive at the following reasoning: The locusts are in a trophic level below the toads, which means that the toads feed on the locusts and will only consume 10% of the energy that the locusts consumed from a vegetable. If a grasshopper consumed 500 million joules, frogs will only receive 10% of that. We can find out the value of energy consumed by frogs in the following calculation:

500 million joules = 100%

X million joules = 10%

X = (500 million * 10) / 100

X = 50 million joules.

"menstrual cycle is a complex cycle that consists of several processes. order of occurrence of steps in menstrual cycle are as follows:

1. high progesterone levels maintain the endometrium lining of the uterus.

2. endometrium lining breaks down and low levels of estrogen stimulate the pituitary to release fsh and lh.

3. fsh and lh stimulates the follicles to develop and the oocyte to produce estrogen.

4. rising estrogen levels suppress fsh production and development of other follicles.

5. a spike in lh causes follicle to rupture.

6. a breakdown of corpus luteum causes progesterone level to drop."

the unequal cytoplasmic division that  results  in  one egg  and three polar bodies ensures that a fertilized  egg has  ample nutrients  forits journey  to  the uterus.
