Answer:

The correct answer would be "They release the carbon that remains in the bodies of dead organisms".

Decomposers are heterotrophic organisms which get their nutrition by breaking down remains of dead plants and animals. The process of breaking down the dead remains of plants and animals is termed as decomposition.

By doing so, they play an important role in an ecosystem. They help in recycling of the nutrients such as carbon and nitrogen in an ecosystem. They return these nutrients to the soil from where plants can reuse the same.

In addition, they help in removing or cleaning the dead matter and waste material from the ecosystem.

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

The sequence order of the arterial vessels in the order leading from the aorta to the brain is: 2,4,5,1,3.

Explanation:

Correct Answer: In order, the sequence of vessels leading from the aorta to the brain is: 2,4,5,1,3.

2 -The brachiocephalic artery (same as brachiocephalic trunk and innominate artery) is an artery found in the mediastinum region where blood is supplied to the right arm and the head and neck

4 - The right subclavian artery arises from the arch of the aorta directly which is a branching of the brachiocephalic trunk and is on the left lies posterior to the insertion of the scalene muscle anterior on the first rib.

5 - The vertebral arteries are arteries majorly of the neck. Usually, this arteries originate from the subclavian arteries. It functions so as to supply the vertebrobasilar vascular system, thks vertebral arteries supply blood in this order to the upper spinal cord, brainstem, cerebellum, and posterior part of brain.

1- Meanwhile basilar artery carries oxygenated blood from 5 to the cerebellum, brainstem, and occipital lobes.

3 - Several arteries at the bottom (inferior) side of the brain is called Circle of Willis and it is the joining area of several arteries in the brain. Branching of smaller arteries from the Circle of Willis happens here as internal carotid arteries that supply oxygenated blood of more than 80% of the cerebrum.
