<h3>What is thermoregulation ?</h3>

Mammals regulate their body temperature carefully and independently of their environment through a process called thermoregulation. A method of maintaining a constant internal temperature necessary for survival is temperature regulation.

  • Poikilothermy and homeothermy are the two main reactions to changing environmental temperatures (TA) that animals display.

  • Progesterone tends to promote heat conservation and higher body temperatures, whilst estradiol tends to increase heat dissipation, and both hormones have an impact on thermoregulation both centrally and peripherally.

Answer:

a. Biomagnification

Explanation:

Biomagnification is the name given to the progressive accumulation of substances from one trophic level to another along a food chain. Thus, the substance will have its highest concentration in individuals who occupy trophic levels furthest from producers.

For biomagnification to occur, substances must be fat soluble (lipid soluble) and thus adhere to living tissues. Another feature of substances that undergo biomagnification is that they are generally not biodegradable or metabolized by the body.

The phenomenon is quite common with heavy metals (lead; mercury) and certain chlorinated and aromatic organic compounds with higher molecular mass, such as the insecticide DDT.

4. What was the “basic idea” about matter that Leucippus and Democritus proposed?
topjm [15]
Democritus is a Greek theorist that believes that atom is the smallest part of the substance. Atom, as he defined, is an indivisible entity. Leuccipus was Democritus' teacher who also believed on that notion. All matter are made up of atoms. If atoms are intact, the property of the substance is firm and solid while if the atoms are much apart, it would be described as a gas. Aristotle had a different belief of matter. He believed that the composing entities of matter are the four elements. However, this notion was rejected and proven through scientific inquiries about atoms and subatomic particles
