  4. 7. Only 10% of this is passed on to the next trophic level
  5. 9. Food __________ is having enough food to feed the population
  6. 13. If this is not high enough then decomposition will be slow (but this factor can also be too high!)
  7. 14. Animals may be fed food high in this substance in order to produce more meat
  8. 15. Intensive farmers could place this device into their barns to prevent energy loss from animals
  9. 16. Much BIOMASS is lost due to this process (releases energy)

  9. 18. This can be produced by genetically modified bacteria and is used to treat diabetes
  10. 19. This substance is produced by gardeners when they provide optimum conditions for the decay of biological material
