Endotherms usually, though not always, maintain a constant body temperature that is higher than that of the environment.

An endotherm is an organism that keeps its body at a metabolically favorable temperature, primarily by using heat produced by internal bodily functions rather than relying almost entirely on ambient heat. Endothermic animals must generate their own heat in order to maintain an optimal body temperature.

Shivering is an example of a special-function muscular exertion, as is uncoupled oxidative metabolism within brown adipose tissue. Only birds and mammals are known to be universally endothermic animal groups. Endothermic species include the Argentine black and white tegu, leatherback sea turtles, lamnid sharks, tuna and billfishes, cicadas, and winter moths.

Yuri [45]

Answer:

225 flies

Explanation:

Let gene for body colour : A

Let gene for eye type : B

Parent 1 : normal body and normal eyes = AABB

Parent 2: ebony body and eyeless = aabb

F1 : AABB X aabb = AaBb ( all have normal body and normal eye )

F1 progeny is self crossed given that the two genes are on different chromosomes which means they show independent assortment:

AaBb X AaBb =

A_B_ = normal body, normal eyes = 9

aaB_ = ebony body, normal eyes = 3

A_bb = normal body, eyeless  = 3    

aabb = ebony body, eyeless  =   1

Hence the ratio is 9 : 3 : 3 : 1

Out of the 400 flies:

(9/16) * 400 = 225 flies have normal body colour and normal eyes

Galina-37 [17]

Answer;

"couples" energetically unfavorable reactions to ATP condensation in order to drive the reaction toward the required product.

Explanation;

-Metabolic pathways are designed to synthesize necessary cellular reagents as required for cellular and tissue function. To accomplish this, the reaction sequence includes both reactions that are essentially irreversible and reactions that are freely reversible (near equilibrium).

-In most cases, cells use a strategy called reaction coupling, in which an energetically favorable reaction (like ATP hydrolysis) is directly linked with an energetically unfavorable (endergonic) reaction.
