Not all adults feed at a high trophic level. whale sharks (50 ft) are the largest fish and feed on plankton and small fish, while great white sharks (20 ft) are the largest carnivorous fish and feed on sea lions, seals and large fish. blue whales (100 ft) are the largest whale and feed primarily on plankton and krill, while the sperm whale (45 ft) is the largest carnivorous whale feeding on fish and very large squid.
(a) how does the location of each animal's position in relation to the producers contribute to their size? be sure to look at the food chain and the amount of energy that is being transferred between the levels.
(b) why do you suppose the plankton feeders are able to attain such large sizes compared to the carnivores?

Taq polymerase is an enzyme isolated from the organism thermophilus aquaticus. this organism has been found living in the hot springs of yellowstone national park. this enzyme is used to copy human dna from crime scenes. most reactions are performed at ranges similar to those of the human body; however, what considerations should be made for optimum use of this enzyme? view available hint(s)taq polymerase is an enzyme isolated from the organism thermophilus aquaticus. this organism has been found living in the hot springs of yellowstone national park. this enzyme is used to copy human dna from crime scenes. most reactions are performed at ranges similar to those of the human body; however, what considerations should be made for optimum use of this enzyme? the enzyme will not work on human dna.nothing should be altered.the ph should be decreased.the temperature should be raised.
