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.

loris [4]

Answer;

The above statement is true

Explanation;

-Complement is a system of plasma proteins that can be activated directly by pathogens or indirectly by pathogen-bound antibody, leading to a cascade of reactions that occurs on the surface of pathogens and generates active components with various effector functions.

-C3b is the larger of two elements formed by the cleavage of complement component 3, and is considered an important part of the innate immune system. C3b is potent in opsonization: tagging pathogens, immune complexes (antigen-antibody), and apoptotic cells for phagocytosis.

Triss [41]

The correct answer for the two missing words are ribosomes and Golgi apparatus. Glands in your neck contain digestive enzymes that help digest starch. Cells that produce and package digestive enzymes must contain relatively large amount of RIBOSOMES and GOLGI APPARATUS in comparison to other cells.
