"maintaining a steady state internal environment, despite a changing external environment, is called homeostasis"

<span>Homeostasis is any self-regulating process by which biological systems tend to maintain internal stability with the tendency to resist external changes. Homeostasis involves negative and positive feedback loops.</span> <span>Homeostasis depends on the ability of the body to detect (via sensors) and oppose these changes. From sensors signals are sent to the control center<span> in the brain, and then after processing the information the </span>effectors are activated.</span>

A student hypothesized that pillar coral eat and digest zooxanthellae for energy. Which observation would cause the student to c
mixer [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

According to this hypothesis that pillar coral digested zooxanthellae, the coral digested zooxanthellae inside the pillar coral must be dead. If anything is engulfed then it should be first dead inside the body of the predator and then the energy is extracted from the food. The food eaten serves as a source of energy.

If you could measure the resting metabolic rate of the following animals, which would most likely have the lowest mass-specific
yawa3891 [41]

The horse and mouse are endotherms among them rat will have high mass-specific metabolic rate.

The shark and fish are endotherms among them fish will have high mass-specific metabolic rate.

Explanation:

The endotherm (heat requires in them to maintain internal temperature of the body) organism have high metabolic rates to maintain homeostasis, this requires the large amount of energy. Smaller animals have the greater surface area to volume ratio, hence more heat loss and higher metabolism. In larger animals body volume increases, surface area increase is also very slow, hence less heat loss and lower Metabolic rate. Smaller animals exchange oxygen to tissues at a high rate.

Same goes with ectotherms the larger the animal the smaller is the metabolic rate. During winters their activity slows down as they cannot adjust with the temperature of the surrounding.

However metabolic rates of ectotherm and endotherm cannot be compared.
