Tell the difference between food chain and food web.

A food chain outlines who eats whom. A food web is all of the food chains in an ecosystem. Each organism in an ecosystem occupies a specific trophic level or position in the food chain or web. Producers, who make their own food using photosynthesis or chemosynthesis, make up the bottom of the trophic pyramid.

A heater consumes 10,000 kJ of energy to produce 8,000 kJ of heat energy. What is the efficiency of this heater in percentage?


The efficiency of the heater can be calculated as follows: Efficiency=(Produced heat energyConsumed energy)×100%=(8,000kJ10,000kJ)×100%=80%\text{Efficiency} = \left(\frac{\text{Produced heat energy}}{\text{Consumed energy}}\right) \times 100\% = \left(\frac{8,000 kJ}{10,000 kJ}\right) \times 100\% = 80\%Efficiency=(Consumed energyProduced heat energy)×100%=(10,000kJ8,000kJ)×100%=80%
