Answer:

Option A, flow of energy in an ecosystem

Explanation:

The producers lie at the base of all food webs or food chains. Thus, it has 100% of energy. Now a consumer lying at trophic level I will get its food from producer. The food shall provide nearly 10% of the total energy of producers to the consumers at trophic level 1. Likewise all the subsequent trophic levels will receive nearly 10% of the energy contained within the organism lying at precedent trophic level.  

Hence, in this way a food chain or food web also describes the movement of energy from one organism to other.  

Hence, option A is correct

Which of the following statements is true?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is: D) The kidneys are paired organs that regulate water and electrolyte balance in terrestrial vertebrates.

Explanation:

The kidneys are the organs that control, for example, <u>the volume of body fluid compartments, acid-base balance, and electrolyte concentrations. </u>These organs are also key to <u>eliminate the toxins from the body. </u>

The kidneys are always two (when not is because of a pathology or the surgical removal of one of the two) and are present in vertebrates.

The kidneys <u>do not regulate blood glucose</u>. That is the job of the pancreas through two hormones called insulin and glucagon.

The kidneys <u>do not remove nitrogenous wastes</u> (urea) from the urine, instead they filtrate these wastes from the blood for these to be excreted through urine.

The illustration below shows the steps of meiosis I. What is the step that is labeled D? metaphase I metaphase II telophase II t
WITCHER [35]

The right answer is metaphase II.

The process is performed in two nuclear and cytoplasmic divisions, called first and second meiotic division or simply meiosis I and meiosis II. Both include prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. First division prophase is long and consists of 5 stages: leptotene, zygotene, pachytene, diplotene, and diakinesis. It is at this point that genetic recombination takes place at the level of chiasmus.

During meiosis I, the members of each homologous pair of chromosomes are paired during prophase, forming bivalents. During this phase, a protein structure, called synaptonemal complex form, allows recombination between homologous chromosomes. Subsequently, a large condensation of the bivalent chromosomes occurs and go to the metaphase plate during the first metaphase, resulting in the migration of n chromosomes to each of the poles during the first anaphase. This reduction division is responsible for maintaining the number of chromosomes characteristic of each species.

In meiosis II, as in mitosis, the sister chromatids comprising each chromosome are separated and distributed between the nuclei of the daughter cells. Between these two successive steps, there is no DNA replication. The maturation of the daughter cells will result in the gametes.
