The answer is - because over 90% of this biome has been converted to agriculture.

This biome has been much larger before the development of the agriculture in this part of the USA, but because this biome provided large territories with deep fertile soil and predominantly lowland areas, people started using it for agriculture because it was the most suitable for that. So little by little, the biome was declining and more and more of it was becoming agricultural land.

Why does active transport take place in the small intestine during absorption of food molecules? I thought it was only diffusion
dezoksy [38]
Well if the small intestine needs to absorb the nutrients, then the nutrients kind of have to go somewhere right?
also, there is a transfer from high to low
inside the small intestine there are lots of nutrients that need to be absorbed to be made into energy
the cells would only have to take in more nutrients if it has run out, aka it's low on nutrients
thus the high concentration outside the cell and the low concentration inside leads to the active transport through the cell membrane

Answer:

The correct answer is option c. the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.

Explanation:

The parasympathetic nervous system is the one that controls involuntary functions and acts. It also causes or maintains a body state of rest or relaxation after an effort or to perform important functions such as digestion.

The sympathetic nervous system is the one that controls visceral reactions and reflexes, that is, it controls how our body responds to a threatening situation, as is the case in the example.

Both systems make up the autonomic nervous system which is in charge of controlling the involuntary functions of our body.

In skeletal muscles, fast oxidative (intermediate) fibers are characterized as type ______, and they typically produce ATP throu
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Given what we know, we can say that In skeletal muscles, fast oxidative (intermediate) fibers are characterized as type ll-A, and they typically produce ATP through aerobic cellular respiration.

<h3>What are fast oxidative fibers?</h3>

These are a type of muscle fibers that can be trained. This means that they usually do not occur naturally but through continued muscle training by the individual. They are also referred to as enhanced fast-twitch muscle fibers. They are aerobic meaning that they require oxygen to undergo cellular respiration.

Therefore, we can confirm that fast oxidative (intermediate) fibers are characterized as type ll-A, and they typically produce ATP through aerobic cellular respiration.
