Will the impact of removing all the organisms in a trophic level be different for different trophic levels? Can the organisms of any trophic level be removed without causing any damage to the ecosystem? Removal of all the organisms of a trophic level will affect the entire ecosystem of that area. Its impact on different trophic levels will be different because of the organisms of a trophic level are directly dependent on them while the organisms of other trophic level are indirectly depend on them for their food. For example, killing of herbivores will increase the number of carnivores and killing of carnivores will increase the number of herbivores. Most of the organisms will die of starvation. How do flows of energy occur in tropic level? Energy is used and conveyed from one trophic level to another is a food chain. This is called flow of energy. Green plants capture about 1% of the solar energy during photosynthesis. A part of this trapped energy is used by plants in perform

Gist of Lesson for Quick Revision (By JSUNIL) 1. An eye is the most important organ of the human body. It is associated with vision and acts as a vital optical instrument. 2. An eye is spherical in shape of about 2.3 cm diameter and is covered externally by a hard thick and opaque layer called Sclerotica. The outermost layer of the eye is sclerotic that  protects  and holds the eye. 3. Cornea is transparent part bulging out of eye and allows the light to enter in the eye. Cornea is also known as the window or aperture of the eye. 4. Iris is a circular diaphragm having a hole in its centre .this hole is called pupil 5. Iris has muscles and coloured pigments that provide different colour y eyes 6. Iris controls the amount of light entering the eye through the pupil. 7. The pupil becomes small when bright light falls on the eye. However, it becomes wide when there is dim light. 8. The eye lens is a crystalline convex lens made up of transparent and flexible tissu
