Further explanation

Which of the following statements about ecosystems is false?

A) The "web of relationships" within an ecosystem includes the nonliving components of the environment B) Bacteria and fungi recycle energy within an ecosystem C) Plants and other photosynthetic organisms are producers in ecosystems D) Chemical nutrients cycle within an ecosystem's structural web E) In the process of energy conversions within an ecosystem, energy is eventually converted to heat

In an ecosystem, fungi play the role of decomposers. For example they break down dead organic matter and it return vital nutrients to the soil. Without fungi, nutrients would not cycle through an ecosystem that causing the breakdown of the entire food chain. Fungi play an important role in energy cycling between ecosystems. Fungi are found in terrestrial, marine and freshwater environments, and it are part of a diverse community of “decomposers” that break down dead plants and animals.

Hope it helps!

Bacteria and fungi recycle energy within an ecosystem.

Explanation:

An ecosystem is a biotic community. In the ecosystem the living beings interact with their non-living physical environment to survive and complete their life cycles.

Among the options given, bacteria and fungi recycle energy within an ecosystem is false statement. This is because of the fact that bacteria and fungi are the decomposers they only recycle the dead matter into simple forms like organic matter in the soil that can be again utilized by the plants for their growth. But does not recycle energy.

Our planet has experienced five major extinctions in the four billion year history of life. the first, 450 million years ago, occurred shortly after the evolution of the first land-based plants and 100 million years after the cambrian explosion. the second extinction occurred 350 million years ago, causing the formation of coal forests. next earth experienced two mass extinctions during the triassic period, between 250 and 200 million years ago. the fifth mass extinction occurred 65 million years ago, ending the reptilian dominance of the earth. according to richard leakey, the sixth mass extinction is happening right now. leakey suggests that we, the human race, are the cause. each year, at our hand, approximately 50,000 species vanish from earth. he believes that man is destroying earth at a rate comparable with the impact of a giant asteroid. leakey's statistics indicate that 50% of earth's species will become extinct within the next 100 years assuming leakey's hypothesis of a sixth mass extinction to be true, how will we expect the model to change? a) a sharp spike in the graph approximately 100 million years from now b) a dip in the graph, followed by a sharp spike about 100 million years from now c) a sharp spike in the graph immediately following the "0" location of the x axis d) a plateau following the "0" mark on the x axis, followed by a gradual rise to a new peak
