The two possible consequences are increased producers and increased primary consumers for an increased population of smaller fish. If the population of smaller fish is increased, the population of primary consumers will increase by 10 times of smaller fish and producers will increase by 10 times of primary consumers.

Answer: The producers will increase and primary consumers will decrease.

The producers of the marine ecosystem are the blue green algae, plankton, et cetera that produces food for the primary and secondary consumers.

The small fishes lie into the category of secondary consumers and eats the primary consumers that why its number will decrease.

As the primary consumers will decrease the producers will increase.

Our lips are more sensitive than our knees to sensations of touch due to which of the following?(A) More neurotransmitters are r
Alborosie

Answer:

The correct answer is (B) A larger area of the sensory cortex is associated with our lips.

Explanation:

All the sensory inputs that come from the body is received by the somatosensory cortex. Neurons are responsible for sensing the perception of touch, heat, pains, etc on any body part and pass the information to the somatosensory cortex where the information gets processed.

Our lips contain many nerve endings and nerves which makes it very sensitive towards touch, warm, and cold. So due to the large number of nerve in lips it is considered as an erogenous zone which states that this area is very highly sensitive. So the correct answer is B.

A neutron star collapses into a black hole because of the force of (fusion,gravity)
stealth61 [152]
Gravity

Neutron stars are the most extreme and fascinating objects known to exist in our universe: Such a star has a mass that is up to twice that of the sun but a radius of only a dozen kilometers: hence it has an enormous density, thousands of billions of times that of the densest element on Earth. An important property of neutron stars, distinguishing them from normal stars, is that their mass cannot grow without bound. Indeed, if a nonrotating star increases its mass, also its density will increase. Normally this will lead to a new equilibrium and the star can live stably in this state for thousands of years. This process, however, cannot repeat indefinitely and the accreting star will reach a mass above which no physical pressure will prevent it from collapsing to a black hole. The critical mass when this happens is called the "maximum mass" and represents an upper limit to the mass that a nonrotating neutron star can be.

However, once the maximum mass is reached, the star also has an alternative to the collapse: it can rotate. A rotating star, in fact, can support a mass larger than if it was nonrotating, simply because the additional centrifugal force can help balance the gravitational force. Also in this case, however, the star cannot be arbitrarily massive because an increase in mass must be accompanied by an increase in the rotation and there is a limit to how fast a star can rotate before breaking apart. Hence, for any neutron star, there is an absolute maximum mass and is given by the largest mass of the fastest-spinning model.

Bile salts break up the fat globule into smaller fat droplets. This role of bile salts is best described as ________.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Lipid emulsification.

Explanation:

Lipid emulsification generally defined as the spread of one form of liquid into second immiscible form of liquid with hydrophobic, or electrostatic, or hydrogen bonding interaction.

The above scenario is about lipid emulsification in which bile salts travels through bile duct along with chyme where these bind with their hydrophobic region to the big fat globules and then break up them into smaller fat droplets and then enter into the duodenum.
