Breaking chemical bonds is typically an endothermic process, which means energy must be added (it must pull in energy)
Breaking of chemical bonds is always endothermic meaning it wants energy, so it takes energy from its surroundings and sucks it in. Think of 'endo' as inside. The chemical bonds want energy inside of it so it can break.
Forming of chemical bonds is exothermic, meaning it releases energy into its surroundings. Think of 'exo' as outside, or exterior, it releases its energy outside of itself.
I hope that makes some kind of sense :)
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Secondary Consumers
Explanation:
If the larvae eat the needles, they are the primary consumers and herbivores. Because they eat the larvae, the birds become the secondary consumer. Tertiary consumers are at the top of the food chain, and eat secondary consumers and primary consumers. Primary producers are energy producing things like plants, etc.

Answer:
The correct option is the pKa of acetic acid or acetate. 
Explanation:
The blood pH is affected by hyperventilation since it triggers hypercapnia, an increase in metabolic acids and therefore a decrease in blood pH.
Excessive consumption of sodium bicarbonate, since this would alkalize the blood, and finally, prolonged fasting or excessive hunger generates the degradation of fat sources, with the consequent formation of ketone bodies as a product, and therefore entering a metabolic acidosis.
