Which type of organism will have the highest concentration of the pollutant as a result of bioaccumulation?
coyotes
Which organism would have the highest concentration of a pollutant that enters the water and is absorbed by aquatic primary producers?
Fish eating birds or Microscopic animals
What two values are needed to calculate the concentration of a chemical in an organism?
Solubility and amount of the substance
How can you determine Biomagnification factor?
BMFi =Ciorganism / Cidiet Ciorganism = concentration of i in organism Cidiet = concentration of i in diet BMFi = biomagnification factor of chemical i
What organism in a food chain is affected most when a pollutant is introduced?
You.
What are the factors of growth in cells?
Cell potential depends on the chemical used, concentration,
What are is the difference between bioaccumulation and biomagnifican?
basic terms we are discussing here. Bioaccumulation refers to how pollutants enter a food chain; biomagnification refers to the tendency of pollutants to concentrate as they move from one trophic level to the next. Here are some definitions of these terms: Bioaccumulation: increase in concentration of a pollutant from the environment to the first organism in a food chain Biomagnification: increase in concentration of a pollutant from one link in a food chain to another
What is The total of all chemical activities that an organism is an organism's?
Metabolism
A set of chemical reactions within an organism?
Organism of measurements
Biologists estimate that on average percent of the plants accumulated energy is passed on to the bodies of the organism that eats it?
10%
When chemicals move from organism to another through links it is called?
When chemicals move from one organism to another through links, it is called bioaccumulation or biomagnification. Bioaccumulation refers to the accumulation of a chemical in the tissues of an organism over time, while biomagnification refers to the increase in concentration of a chemical as it moves up the food chain. Both processes can have negative impacts on the health and well-being of organisms.
What happens to the chemical energy that an organism obtain from food?
The chemical energy that an organism obtains from food is converted to ATP.
