Brief explain these topics for my quiz coming up.

C
Make sure you can:
Explain the one-way flow of energy through the biosphere
How energy is trapped/stored in the biosphere
How energy in the biosphere is "lost" as heat
Explain how the energy in the biosphere is a balance between
photosynthetic/chemosynthetic activity and cellular respiration activity
List the source of energy for photosynthesis and chemosynthesis
DExplain the structure of trophic levels
Compare and contrast between food chains and food webs as models for trophic
levels of an ecosystem
Quantitatively explain the flow of energy in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems
using ecological pyramids
Compare and contrast the benefits/detriments of Pyramids of Energy,
Numbers, and Biomass
Propose, and defend the following statement: "vegetarianism is the most
sustainable food model for supporting a dense population"
