Explain how energy flows between abiotic and biotic systems.25 points.

Explain it in full detail.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Biotic factors can be described as the living components of a system. Abiotic factors can be described as the non- living components of an ecosystem. The abiotic and biotic components of an ecosystem are linked to each other by the flow of energy.

Energy usually enters an ecosystem through the abiotic factor, i.e Sun in the form of heat. This energy is essential so that the biotic component, plants, can make their own food. Some of the heat energy is dissipated back into the atmosphere in the form of heat. Rest, the energy is directed to herbivores, carnivores and decomposers. All these organisms also dissipate some of the heat energy back into the atmosphere.

Animal Behavior Role on Successful Reproduction of Plants

Answers

Plant reproduction can be made successful through animal interventions: Here are some examples of how animal behavior help plant reproduction:
1) Many plants rely to animals to deliver their pollen to other plants. These animals are called pollinators and include bees, birds, bats and other insects.
2)Other animals help plants reproduce by eating their fruits and scattering or digesting seeds. This will germinate the seeds and allow them to grow into new plants.
