Large predators are found at higher trophic levels because specialized bodies are needed to extract the small energy that gets to them.
The energy that gets to successive trophic levels decreases progressively because much of it is lost as heat. This means that a small percentage of the energy from the producers that form the bases of trophic levels to the predators that are somewhat at the top of trophic levels.
With big body size, the bodies of predators are organized into systems that work together to efficiently extract the small energy that gets to them from immediate lower trophic level.

<span>Carbon is the only element that can form many different compounds. Each carbon atom can form four chemical bonds to other atoms. This allows it to form rings and chains.</span>
The two major systems involved in the stress response are the Nervous System [the Sympathetic subdivision of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)] and the Endocrine System (glands which secrete hormones intonthe bloodstream).
The Endocrine System's response during acute and/or chronic stress (adaptation) involves first the Hypothalamic release of Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone (CRH), which stimulates the Anterior Pituitary (via the blood) to release AdrenoCorticoTropic Hormone (ACTH), which then activates the Adrenal Cortex to release glucocorticoid hormones (i.e. Cortisol), amongst others into the bloodstream. Cortisol then has many effects on tissues and organs throughout the body to allow better generalized coping with the initial stress stimulus.
English translation of the question is as follows:
Analyze the alternatives below and check the one that does NOT describe a nervous system function. 1 point
a) capture and interpret stimuli from the environment.
b) carry information.
c) creating responses through movements, sensations or findings.
d) transport nutrients and oxygen to the body.
e) control the activity of the muscles.
Answer:
d) transport nutrients and oxygen to the body.
Explanation:
Nervous system functions to communicate with other cells through synapses and through membrane-to-membrane transfer that allows rapid transmission of signals that controls muscle activity and create responses through movements, sensations or findings.
Nervous system do not function to transport nutrients and oxygen to the body.
Hence, the correct option is "d)".
