Aporcupine eats 3,000 j of plant material. of this, 2,100 j is indigestible and is eliminated as feces, 800 j are used in cellular respiration, and 100 j are used for growth and reproduction. what is the approximate production efficiency of this animal?

3%

Explanation:

The total energy ingested is 3000J and of those 3000J, 100J are used for growth and reproduction, this is the part of production in the porcupine, since the other 800J and 2100J are used for internal processes of the porcupine.

Therefore the production efficiency is 100J of the 3000J, let's find out how much it is in percentage:

⇒0.033=3.3% ≈ 3%

The correct option es 3% of production efficiency.

the moon affects the earth gravitation ally, causing certain motions of that body and also producing tides in its ocean and atmosphere. the tidal wave in our atmosphere is, however, far too minute to be an effective cause in any known meteorological phenomenon.
