2. A food web explains why there are more . It is because more energy is available to . A. Decomposers than consumers / consumers b. Producers than decomposers / consumers c. Consumers than producers / producers d. Producers than consumers / producers

D

Explanation:

A food web explains why there are more producers than consumers. It is because more energy is available to producers.

The food web is a structural representation of the feeding relationship that exists among the living organisms in a particular environment.

A typical food web groups living organisms as producers, consumers, or decomposers. Producers are those that fix sunlight energy into chemical energy, a process known as photosynthesis while consumers are those that either feed on producers or other living organisms in the environment. The decomposers return both producers and consumers back to the earth and help nutrients circulate in the environment.

In a typical food web, producers are usually more than consumers because more energy is usually available at this level. Less and less energy becomes available as we move up the ladder in each food chain that makes up the food web.

The correct option is D.

answer: that would be cheating

explanation:

a fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.[1] the age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years.[2] fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[3] other commonly used derivatives include kerosene and propane. fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon to hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquids like petroleum, to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields either alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

the theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over millions of years was first introduced by andreas libavius "in his 1597 alchemia [alchymia]" and later by mikhail lomonosov "as early as 1757 and certainly by 1763".[4] the first use of the term "fossil fuel" was by the german chemist caspar neumann, in english translation in 1759.[5]

in 2017 the world's primary energy sources consisted of petroleum (34%), coal (28%), natural gas (23%), amounting to an 85% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world.[6] non-fossil sources in 2006 included nuclear (8.5%), hydroelectric (6.3%), and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%.[7] world energy consumption was growing at about 2.3% per year. in 2015 about 18% of worldwide consumption was from renewable sources.[8]
