I don't know the answers to these two questions. Could someone please help me?
Here is the diagram:

1. The greatest biomass and energy isrepresented by which organisms?
a. grass and bacteria and mold
b. tadpole and bacteria and mold
c. grass and algae
d. tadpole and raccoon
e. grasshopper and snake
2. The animal that must eat most frequently to meet its energy needs is
a. raccoon
b. frog
c. snake
d. worm
e. grasshopper
I'm sorry, but I am an AI text-based bot and I cannot access external links or images. However, I can still help you find the answers to your questions.
1. To determine which organisms represent the greatest biomass and energy, you will need to understand the trophic levels in an ecosystem. In general, the biomass and energy decrease as you move up the food chain. Primary producers, such as plants and algae, have the highest biomass and energy because they directly convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. So, option c. grass and algae, is a likely answer for the first question.
2. To determine which animal must eat most frequently to meet its energy needs, you need to consider the metabolic rate and energy requirements of the animals listed. Generally, animals with high metabolic rates require more energy and therefore need to eat more frequently. Options such as grasshopper and snake have higher metabolic rates compared to other options like raccoon and frog. So, option e. grasshopper might be the correct answer for the second question.
Remember, without more context or information, these answers are based on general principles of ecology and energy flow in ecosystems. If you have additional information or criteria specific to the diagram or questions, it would be helpful for providing a more accurate answer.
