Answer:
(B) Boreal owls range over larger areas in regions where food of the sort eaten by small mammals is sparse than they do in regions where such food is abundant
Explanation:
Living beings exhibit various changes in the behavior and niche to make themselves better fitted to the conditions of their habitats.
Boreal owls feed on the other smaller mammals such as mice and shrews. These organisms that serve as their prey are relatively less abundant in the habitat. To ensure the food availability, the boreal owls occupy a larger area so that they can catch their less abundant food organisms.
In the habitats where the prey species of boreal owls are present in a larger number, these owls occupy smaller regions since the food organisms are easily available.
The right answer is to measure the amount of released carbon dioxide.
The carbon dioxide exhaled by the lungs can reflect the energy consumed by the body since it comes from the degradation of glucose which is the main energy substrate. And this is a better indicator of energy consumption than measuring heart rate because it can be inflected by several factors.
A is false because glucose is not found in the urine, except in the case of diabetes mellitus.
C is false because the consumption of calories does not mean that we will directly use it.
D is wrong because perspiration is independent of energy consumption, this is a way to cool the body after exercise.

1. No conversions. The greatest advantage of SI is that it has only one<span> unit for each quantity ( a type of measurement). This means that it is never necessary to convert from one unit to another (within the system) and there are no conversion factors for students to memorize.
2. </span><span>No fractions. SI uses decimals exclusively, eliminating clumsy fractions and mixed numbers.</span>
Answer:
The carbon cycle, as the nitrogen cycle, occurs in all the spheres: Biosphere, Atmosphere, Geosphere and Hydrosphere.
Explanation:
Most Earth events involve interaction between multiple spheres. For example, rain is the movement of water (the hydrosphere) from the atmosphere to the lithosphere where it collects in lakes, rivers, or streams. Water is an important resource for inhabitants of the biosphere.
The Atmosphere-contains all the air in Earth's system. The upper portion of the atmosphere protects the organisms of the biosphere from the sun's ultraviolet radiation. It also absorbs and emits heat. This sphere is also where weather occurs.
The nitrogen cycle occurs in all the spheres and ecosystems. It passes through rocks, water, atmosphere, plants, etc.
In atmosphere and biosphere: Nitrogen is about 78% of the gases in the atmosphere an it’s a essential component of the living organisms. It enters plants through the microorganisms that convert this nitrogen into ammonia. After this conversion, the plants absorb this substance. It can pass to animals when they eat these plants. Then, when they urinate, bacteria convert ammonia to nitrogen again and it returns to the atmosphere.
