Producers make up more biomass than primary consumers because a. only 10 percent of the energy at each trophic level is passed on to the next level b. they do not eat anything c. pound for pound, plant sugars are heavier than fat d. both primary and secondary consumers eat grass

The correct answer is option a. only 10 percent of the energy at each trophic level is passed on to the next level.

The producers obtain their energy from the sunlight and convert it into usable form of energy for consumers. The primary consumers eat the plants, and obtain energy from the plants. On each trophic level, only 10 % energy is transferred to the succeeding one.

As only 10% of the energy is transferred to the next trophic level, the primary producers need to eat more plants in order to meet their energy requirement. This insufficiency of the energy transfer from one trophic level to another causes the decrease in the biomass on next level.

chromosomes carry the genetic information for organisms. also, chromatin is the thread like dna which is located in the nucleus of an organism.

not too sure but maybe in the hot springs.
