One problem with biomass is that it does not translate immediately into energy for the next-level trophe. This is because some elements of the animals’ biology (e.g., skeletons and feathers) are inedible by their predators. Pyramids are a helpful way of assessing biomass total biomass. Where...
How is biomass lost in a food chain? How does poaching affect the food chain? Why are insects important to the food chain? How are food webs and trophic level related? How does a food web work in a habitat? How are ecosystems formed?
How is biomass lost in a food chain? How do keystone species affect an ecosystem? How does deforestation affect habitat loss? How is mass extinction different from extinction? How does biodiversity impact an ecosystem? How does ecological succession affect humans? How does deforestation affect the ...
However, bamboo will work well in clay and less advantageous soil conditions. Bamboo roots are not deep and source most of their nutrient in the first 12 inches of soil. Bamboo will not grow in standing water, the soil has to be capable of drainage. The root system can deteriorate if ...
electricity. And other types of solar cell that areflexible and cheaparerapidly getting more efficient too. Plants actually look rather forlorn in comparison: the maximum theoretical amount of sunlight they can convert to biomass is 4.5 per cent. In real conditions, most achieve only about...
The ratio of extracellular enzymes to microbial biomass (specific enzyme activity) can be used to indicate the C-turnover efficiency of the soil microbial community, and a low specific enzyme activity can retard the mineralization of native SOC32. Here, the ratio of enzyme activity-to-microbial ...

Growth sensu lato (total area of the Venn diagram) is the change in biomass, or volume. Growth sensu stricto (area contained within solid lines in the Venn diagram) is an irreversible increase in cell number, structural biomass (structural growth), or plant volume (expansive growth). Cell ...
