    The document describes the flow of energy through trophic levels in a food pyramid. At each successive trophic level, less energy is available than the level below as approximately 90% of energy is lost through heat and only 10% is stored and available to transfer to the next level. As a result, higher trophic levels have less available energy.

    Two major classifications of animals

    Describe the flow of energy in the pyramid


    As shown by the pyramid shape, each successive trophic level receives less food
    energy than the one below it. Approximately 90% of the energy from food is "lost" as
    heat when it is used by organisms to power essential life processes such as breathing
    and digestion, while the remaining 10% is stored in the tissues of the various
    organisms. This latter energy is capable of being transferred to the next trophic level. As
    a result, higher trophic levels on the pyramid have less energy.
    Imagine you have a colleague who always blames technology for
    environmental problems. What would you say to your colleague to demonstrate
    that technology affects the environment in both a positive and a negative
    manner?

    You could start by saying that technology has a big effect on the way we live and
    on the world around us. For example, we use clean energy sources like wind and solar
    power to cut down on greenhouse gas emissions, and we use high-tech waste
    treatment plants to keep water sources from getting dirty. You would agree, though, that
    technology could hurt the environment. E-waste, for example, has a lot of toxic
    materials that can pollute the air, soil, and groundwater. So you've come to the
    conclusion that technology can have both good and bad effects on the environment.

    Answer the following questions

    1. According to the essay, what is migration?


    Migration is the process of people moving from one place to another.
    People can move within a country or between countries. Migration can be
    permanent, short-term, or seasonal. There are many reasons why people move.
    These could be about the economy, society, politics, or the environment.
    2. What are the effects of migration to the Filipino women?
    Ultimately, the increased population in receiving countries is one of the
    social, economic, and political problems caused by Filipino women's migration.
    Second, the need for products and services is growing. Lastly, citizens are being
    forced out of their rural and urban jobs.
    3. What are the challenges faced by the Filipino women working abroad?
    Living in a foreign country presents mental, emotional, and social
    difficulties for these women. These women are under a great deal of pressure,
    especially during their first year in a foreign country. Their health declines as they
    adjust to a new place of employment, culture, social norms, diet, and climate.
    The financial burden of maintaining contact with loved ones back in the
    Philippines can add emotional stress for those who have been separated from
    them.

    Food Security

    When I hear the phrase "food security," three images immediately come to mind.
    The first is the food, of course. Animals and plants are the main food
    sources. People and animals eat it because it gives them energy and food and
    keeps them healthy.

    Second, there is food production, which includes crop growth and


    harvesting as well as livestock rearing and slaughter. Other examples include
    milking, catching fish and seafood, and collecting hen eggs.
    Specifically, those who work in manual labor types in the industry and
    agricultural workforce.

    When it comes to food security in terms of locations, I can say that


    agriculture and the manufacturing industry are the most important. Agriculture is
    concerned with farms and fisheries, whereas manufacturing is concerned with
    factories.
    In terms of characteristics, I can divide food security into three categories.
    The first is food access, which represents an individual's ability to obtain food.
    Second, food availability denotes the presence of an adequate amount of food at
    any given time. Finally, food usage refers to taking the necessary steps to ensure
    that a person has the knowledge to select essential basic foods as well as
    adequate water and sanitation.

    Generalization

    The important things that i have learned about the Human environmental
    interactions refer to the myriad ways in which people and their natural surroundings
    influence one another. In order to accommodate human needs, natural environments
    are drastically changed by human activities like landscape fragmentation; this has a
    disproportionate impact on mountainous, fragile, and marginal regions. The health of
    ecosystems and people are both put at risk by this trend. Concurrently, these shifts
    could spark rivalries amongst previously peaceful constituencies. This interdisciplinary
    team of researchers is looking into human-environment interactions with the hopes of
    coming up with workable solutions.

    I also learned about the different kinds of Human environment interaction. Firstly
    the natural resources The demand for natural resources continues to rise as the
    population grows and per capita consumption rises with socioeconomic advancement.
    Natural resource depletion due to extraction and exploitation is especially concerning for
    non-renewable resources. Secondly the Deforestation ,Soil erosion is exacerbated by
    deforestation. When trees are cut down, the land below becomes exposed; without
    trees to bind the soil together to intercept, the soil is more likely to be carried away
    during rainy seasons. The loss of forests has a significant impact on water supply.
    Lastly, the Energy resources such as wind power, hydroelectric power, and solar power
    are examples of renewable energies that can be used instead of fossil fuels. These
    renewable energies work by converting wind, water, and sun energy into electricity,
    respectively.

    Lastly, now I know and understand the Human-environmental interactions are


    advantageous to humans. No other species on the planet has interacted with the
    environment in the same way that humans have. Human adaptation to the earth has
    allowed them to rule over the environment and related ecosystems. It also have a huge
    negative impact in our environment. Humans have a wide range of effects on the
    physical environment, including overpopulation, pollution, the use of fossil fuels, and
    deforestation. These types of changes have resulted in climate change, soil erosion,
    poor air quality, and undrinkable water.

    Abortion

    Yes, it is the mother's choice to have an abortion, in my opinion. If they truly


    cannot handle or care for the baby, abortion is preferable to causing the child to suffer.
    It's not breathing yet, so it's not murder, and it's a choice; if it's murder, why are there no
    people in the jail because of the abortion? And, once again, it is entirely my decision.
    Choose pro-choice over pro-life.

    Reproductive Health Bill

    Because of the high number of people in our country who have little or no work, I
    support the Reproductive Health Bill. People who are less fortunate in life usually have
    a lot of children. If we allow it or support the reproductive health bill, we will have fewer
    children and fewer hungry stomachs in our country.

    Sex Education

    Indeed. Primarily because it encourages young children to recognize the benefits


    and drawbacks of having a sexual intercourse and raises self-awareness of sexual
    danger taking behavior or STI/HIV disease rates. It also teaches young people the
    proper way to use insurance and improves their perspectives on sexual and
    reproductive health and behaviors.

    Republic Act 7610

    I support R.A. 7610 because it provides stronger deterrence and special


    protection against child abuse, exploitation, and discriminatin, as well as penalties for
    violations and other purposes.

    Teaching Science in Elementary Grades – Generalization for Week 16

    The important things that I have learned about the Producers are organisms that
    generate food for themselves as well as for other organisms. They create organic
    compounds by combining energy and simple inorganic molecules. Producer stability is
    critical to ecosystems because all organisms require organic molecules. Autotrophs are
    another name for producers. Autotrophs are classified into two types: photoautotrophs
    and chemoautotrophs. Consumers are living things that eat other living things. They get
    the molecules they need by eating other living things. They are made up of all animals
    and fungi. They include many bacteria and even a few plants, like the pitcher plant.
    Consumers are also called heterotrophs. Decomposers break down the remains and
    other wastes and send back to the environment simple inorganic molecules. The
    molecules can then be used to make other organic compounds. Every ecosystem
    needs decomposers that don't change. Decomposers are put into different groups
    based on what kind of organic matter they break down.

    I also learned about the Food chains represent a single energy flow path through
    an ecosystem. It depicts a single item that an organism consumes, whereas a Food
    Web depicts all of the different paths of energy flow and multiple items that organisms
    consume.

    Lastly, now I know and understand that the populations of all the different
    species that live together in an area make up an ecological relationships. Community
    ecologists examine how different species in a community interact with each other.
    Interactions between two or more species are called interspecific interactions.
    Relationships between organisms within or between overlapping niches can be
    classified into five types: competition, predation, commensalism, mutualism, and
    parasitism.
