What kind of disruption would be inflicted on a forest food web if the trees started to die off?
Many animals would be short of food and a home making the ecosystem unstable
What is the most efficient way to process energy for cells? Explain why.
Respiration is the most efficient way to process energy for cells because it does not produce byproducts and makes the most ATP.
