Place the crab cakes into the oven on the broiler rack, right below the broiler, for around 12 minutes. Halfway through the 12 minutes, remove the crab cakes from the broiler rack, flip the crab cakes, and put them back under the broiler. Once complete, the crab cakes should appear golden brown.
Operational efficiency. In a business context, operational efficiency can be defined as the ratio between an output gained from the business and an input to run a business operation. When improving operational efficiency, the output to input ratio improves.
Ecological efficiency. Ecological efficiency describes the efficiency with which energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next. It is determined by a combination of efficiencies relating to organismic resource acquisition and assimilation in an ecosystem. Primary production occurs in autotrophic organisms of an ecosystem.
