<span>In theory, to gain a pound of body weight per week, one must consume an additional 1,000 calories per day. An approximate 3,500 calories is equivalent to a pound of body weight. If a person continuously consumes more than 3,500 calories over a period of time it is expected that this person will gain 1 pound of weight. <span>

<span>Nutritionists usually suggest that an underweight person should add between 500-1,000 calories per day to encourage a 1-2 pound increase in body weight. Because being underweight sacrifices one's immunity and overall health.</span></span></span>

Arguments FOR GMOs? Arguments AGAINST GMOs?<br>​
stich3 [128]

❤️Hello!❤️ In my opinion, i'm against GMO's. First of all you need to understand what GMO stands for, GMO means (Genetically Modified Organisms) and does that REALLY sound appealing to eat (Be honest). So now we have that covered i'm going to tell you some reasons why YOU should avoid Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO's). First of all GMO's are unhealthy, according to the American Academy of Environmental Medicine. They cite animal studies showing organ damage, gastrointestinal and immune system disorders, accelerated aging, and infertility. Second of all, GMO's contaminate forever. GMO's cross pollinate and their seeds can travel. It is impossible to fully clean up our contaminated gene pool. Self propagating GMO pollution will outlast the effects of global warming and nuclear waste. The impact is huge, threatening the health of future generations. Third of all, GMO's increase herbicide use, most GMO crops are engineered to be “Herbicide tolerant”―they deadly weed killer. Monsanto, for example, sells Roundup Ready crops, designed to survive applications of their Roundup herbicide.  Between 1996 and 2008, US farmers sprayed an extra 383 million pounds of herbicide on GMO's. Overuse of Roundup results in “superweeds,” resistant to the herbicide. This is causing farmers to use even more toxic herbicides every year. ♒️ Hope this helps!♒️  ↪️ Autumn ↩️

Which of the following is an example of reproductive isolation? two populations of finches that cannot produce viable offspring
OverLord2011 [107]

The correct answer is A. Two populations of finches that cannot produce viable offspring

Explanation:

Reproductive isolation is a biological and evolutionary phenomenon that prevents two species from successfully reproducing, this means they cannot produce offspring or the offspring is not fertile, even if these species had a common ancestor. Additionally, as a result of reproductive isolation, each species keeps its genes and features. This phenomenon is best exemplified in "Two populations of finches that cannot produce viable offspring " because this refer to the barriers for different species to reproduce or produce viable offspring, which is the focus of reproductive isolation.

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

spiders are.   generally ectotherms.Their internal temperature depends on external temperature transfer.They are also poikilothermic because the body temperature varies with that of the external environment.,

In animals, individual cells are grouped into  tissues. e,g Blood. The tissues gives rise to organs.

A main function of most types of epithelial tissue is covering surfaces.They line major all hollow surfaces, and covering body surfaces.

Resorption id the movement of fluid from the glomerular filtrate back into the blood. Ions, glucose,and other escaped metabolites are returned to the blood stream.

In humans, goosebumps are a vestige of a mammalian adaptation to thermoregulation. This is a thermoregulatory mechanism to regulate the body temperature,Goosebumps emits heat,  to turn the moisture from the skin  to vapour. This evaporate to release this moisture, which cools the body.
