In addition to loss of muscle mass, inadequate calorie intake can lead to loss of bone density and an increased risk of fatigue, illness, injuries and poor recovery.

<h3>Why is it important to consume adequate calories?</h3>
  • When your consumption of calories is not adequate, your body will not get all the necessary nutrients.
  • It slows down the metabolism so as to conserve energy
  • Calorie restriction can lead to reduce in leptin, a hormone that regulates appetite.
  • Lower levels of leptin can lead to increase in hunger thus a person overeats. This results in increase in body weight.
  • Low-calorie dieting increases stress and results in the release of the stress hormone (cortisol).
  • Due to response to stress, the body conserves energy and the metabolism slows to combat the risk of starvation.
  • Therefore, it is important to consume appropriate amount of calories and nutrients.

- Waves: the movement of surface water of the oceans, and it's direction affect the placement of organisms as they must have strong anchor or body parts suited for buoyancy

- salinity: not all organisms can survive in water with high salt content. Thus, some live in salty water, and others in fresh water or the mixture.

- Mineral content: the levels of hydrogen ion could make a water bidy alkaline or acidic thus affecting organism that can survive in it

Thus, since water ordinarilly is Universal, it is not an important factor in determining distribution of organisms in aquatic biomes
