Masja [62]2 years ago

Answer:

By using survival instincts and reflexes organisms can survive longer by doing what their brain is telling them to do. For example, if you fell something hot you stop touching it because of the pain receptors in your brain. This lets the organism achieve homeostasis and live another day.

Answer:

Innate behaviors of organisms help to maintain homeostasis by ensuring that optimum conditions for proper functioning of the organism are kept almost constant

Explanation:

For example, during cold weathers, the body adapts to this change in temperature by inducing shivering so as to allow the production of heat to increase the body's temperature to it's optimum state.

Similarly when there is excess water in the body, hormones are released to induce urination so as to get rid of the excess water in order to prevent pH changes which would affect biochemical processes in the body.

These innate characteristics are therefore necessary so as to keep the organism at optimum state.

Radda [10]

Answer:

There is no way to prevent biofilms from developing on surfaces

Explanation:

Biofilm formation is observed when free floating microorganisms adhere to a surface due to its extracellular polymers that gives it a structural matrix and promotes its adhesion.

Biofilms shield the bacteria, makes it more resistant to conventional antimicrobial treatments, and it pose a major health risk.

CHEMICAL MODIFICATIONS are the main technique for biofilm prevention on indwelling medical devices. Antibiotics, biocides, and ion coatings are the mostly employed as chemical techniques of biofilm prevention. They inhibit biofilm formation by disrupting the adhesion and increment of immature biofilms.

Why are ecological pyramids shaped as pyramids?
Sonja [21]
Ecological pyramids are drawn where predators are above prey and they show the population number of each organism shown. Therefore, as the pyramid rises, the population number of the organism decreases, ultimately resulting in a roughly pyramidal shape. Since, organisms higher up the food chain tend to be less numerous than those at the preceding trophic levels, the pyramid is often the classic pyramidal shape. The difference in numbers of organisms at different levels can be so great that logarithmic scales have to be used.
