Answer:
C. Most mammals are secondary consumers. Most invertebrates are primary consumers.
Explanation:
Net production efficiency (NPE) refers to how efficient an organism at one trophic level is in utilizing and transferring energy to the next trophic level. Consumer organisms obtain energy (from biomass) when they feed on other organisms. They then use this energy for their metabolic activities and transfer the rest when eaten or fed on.
The net production efficiency decreases with increasing trophic level because higher organisms use more energy than lower ones. In this case, invertebrates use energy they obtained lesser or more efficiently than mammals, hence, making them have a HIGHER net production efficiency than mammals. Therefore, invertebrates are mostly primary consumers and utilize energy lesser than mammals which are mostly SECONDARY CONSUMERS.

The first plants to grow on land were ______, which lack vascular tissue. _____ were the first group of land plants to evolve vascular tissue, allowing them to grow taller. The _____ group produces seeds that develop in cones, while the ______ group produces seeds that develop in fruit. Each of these groups of plants has a reproductive cycle that includes a ____ form that produces seeds or spores and a _____ form that produces sperm or eggs.
Answer: Cyanobacteria, bryophytes, Pteridophytes, Gymnosperms, Angiosperms, Sporophytic phase, and Gametophytic
Explanation:
Cyanobacteria or blue green algae were the first or earliest known plants which appeared on earth they performed the process of photosynthesis by using water and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to produce oxygen gas. Bryophytes were the first land plants on earth including the mosses and liverworts, these plants did not had the vascular system and true roots, stems, and leaves. Pteridophytes are the plants that have vascular system. Gymnosperms are the plants that have naked ovules and the seeds are enclosed in the woody covering called cone. The angiosperms are the flowering plants, which develops seeds after fertilization gets enclosed in a fruit. The sporophytic phase, involves the development of a dominant sporophyte which produces spores which on germination produces a gametophytes which produces gametes (male and female) for fertilization.

Explore: Use the Gizmo to create three more carbon paths, each starting and ending in the atmosphere. Label each location with A for atmosphere, B for biosphere, G for geosphere, or H for hydrosphere. (You can also use P for anthroposphere if you like, or just include it in the biosphere.)
path 1
path 2
path 3
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
1. Path A (Atmosphere) :
Carbon Path: Atmospheric CO2: this arises from geological sources such as volcanoes, burning fossil fuels, etc. This gets carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere during these processes.
2. Path G (Geosphere)
Carbon Path: Lithosphere: Earth’s carbon has been researched to have large limestone deposits. This limestone can be found in the Earth's lithosphere. Through the heating of limestone, carbon dioxide gets back to the atmosphere.
3. Path H (Hydrosphere)
Carbon Path: Oceania CO2: there is a large deposit of dissolved CO2 underneath the ocean. As the ocean gets colder, it dissolves more. The plants absorbed carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and get back to the atmosphere
The earth's atmosphere has layers: the exosphere, thermosphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, and troposphere from highest to lowest levels.
These layers are composed of Nitrogen, oxygen, other gases and are defined by unique characteristics of temperature and pressure.
1. Path A (Atmosphere)
The carbon path in this layer involves atmospheric carbon dioxide. The burning of fossil fuels like petrol, coal, diesel, volcanic explosions and wildfires brings back the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere during these processes.
2. Path G (Geosphere)
The carbon path involves the lithosphere. Expiration by plant and animal, burning of carbonate rocks like limestone, shale gas and coal release carbon which get backs in the atmosphere.
3. Path H (Hydrosphere)
The carbon path involves oceanic carbon dioxide. Ocean and water bodies have enormous amounts of dissolved carbon in them. Aquatic plants use this diffused carbon dioxide and free it back into the atmosphere.

Identify the following text structure in the example below and choose the correct answer:
Attracted by the sweet nectar that each flower offers, the bees crawl around on the petals to find the perfect sucking position. As they do so, their furry bodies are dusted with beads of pollen. As they fly from blossom to blossom in search of more of the sweet energy drink, they transfer pollen from the male part of the flower to the female part, and so fertilize it. Not long afterwards, the plant's ovaries swell into fruit, which by late August turn into precious, oval-shaped nuts.
