A forest ecosystem can support a limited number of bears. This is because available energy is lost from one trophic level to the next. (flies, trout, then bears)

Answer:

The correct answer would be C)  available energy is lost from one trophic level to the next.  

It is the universal law that the energy is lost when transferred from one trophic level to the next.

It is because most of the energy present at any trophic level is used by the organisms for their biological processes such as locomotion, reproduction et cetera. Due to this, most of the energy is lost as heat in the surrounding environment.

In the given food chain, the bears are present at the highest trophic level and thus they would get minimum energy.  

Thus, the ecosystem can provide only a limited amount of energy to the bears due to which the ecosystem can support a limited number of bears.

sergiy2304 [10]

If a woman with vaginal bleeding reports syncope, the EMT should assume that she "is in shock".

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The most common form of syncope is the Vasovagal syncope. It is triggered by a dramatic drop in blood pressure, resulting in a decline in blood flow to the brain. When one stand up, gravity causes blood to settle down below one's diaphragm, in the bottom part of their body.

It is a component of a wider class of medical conditions which may lead in TLOC involving postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), orthostatic hypotension and neurologically mediated syncope (NMS). The overlapping of such clinical symptoms causes confusion about the category of syncopes which may complicate assessment approaches and present difficulties for diagnosis and treatment, especially in young women.

Explain why toxic compounds usually have the greatest effect on top-level carnivores
gladu [14]
This is because toxins are ingested by organisms and accumulate in the fatty tissues. Theses toxins then become more concentrated in successive trophic levels of a food web biological magnification. Magnification occurs because the biomass at any given trophic level is produced from a much larger biomass ingested from the level below and therefore, top-level carnivores tend to be the organisms most severely affected by toxic compounds.

Human decisions about controlling erosion have very little effect on living conditions.
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The main cause of man-made erosion is agriculture, followed by construction and mining.

Where humans once used sticks and stones, they have since developed technology that dramatically accelerated the speed of erosio.

Hence, if human descions are to control the soil erosion then there will be a very big impact on living conditions.
