What do organisms use to help regulate pH in the body?

1.

The answer is clearly "C" because an adaptive feature is a feature in which a living organism has adapted to, for example:

Millions of years ago, fish and other water creatures evolved to breathe on the surface, and not just in the water. However, this process took many years to adapt to the climate.

I know that this is a gene so I assume, by the wording that this is a length of DNA from another human. Can't particularly explain this very clearly though, sorry. You can read more about it here though by searching about it, sorry I can't put the link as my answer will be removed.

I hope this helps you but if it does not, don't be mean! Message me and I will try my hardest to resolve my answer! :D

There are 22 amino acids used within the human body. How can these 22 molecules be used to make hundreds of thousands of differe

dangina [55]

Answer:

Because amino acids can be arranged in many different combinations, it's possible for your body to make thousands of different kinds of proteins from just the same 21 amino acids. You may see books that say there are only 20 amino acids.

A flat sheet of connective tissue that extends beyond the muscle fibers to attach the muscle to bone is a(n) ______. a flat shee

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

A flat sheet of connective tissue that extends beyond the muscle fibers to attach the muscle to bone is a TENDON.

Explanation:

Tendon can be described as a fibrous connective tissue which functions mainly to attach muscles to bones hence, playing a major role in the movement of the bone or structure. Tendons also function to connect muscles to other structures like the eye ball.

Contrary to the tendons, ligaments are also fibrous connective tissues which are involved in the attachment of bone to bone. Hence, ligaments play major role in holding the structures and keeping them stable.

1. How many food chains make up the food web?

viva [34]

Answer:

A food web can be formed by more than one food chain, since the webs includes all possible interactions that can occur between individuals of different trophic levels.

Explanation:

Based on the scheme shown in the image

<h3>1. How many food chains make up the food web? </h3>

This food network is made up of three food chains

<em>Plant → Bird → Snake</em>
<em>Plant → Insect → Bird → Snake</em>
<em>Plant → insect → Frog → Snake</em>

Food webs often include several food chains, since they are due to the interaction between organisms at different trophic levels, which actually happens within an ecosystem.

<h3> 2. Which organism is an herbivore? </h3>

In this case, both the insect and the bird are herbivorous organisms, since they feed of the producer, which is the plant.

<h3> 3. Which organism is an autotroph? </h3>

The only autotrophic organism is the plant, since it is capable of manufacturing its nutrients from sunlight and inorganic matter.

<h3> 4. Which organism is a third-order heterotroph? To what trophic level does that organism belong? </h3>

The third order heterotroph is the snake, since it feeds on other animals. The snake is a carnivore and can be a secondary or more commonly tertiary consumer, so it can be placed in the 3rd or 4th trophic level.

<h3> 5. Which organism is an omnivore? </h3>

According to the scheme proposed, the bird is omnivorous, since it feeds on both plants and insects.

<h3> 6. Which organisms belong to more than one food chain? </h3>

In this case, the plant, the insect, the bird and the snake are part of more than one food chain.

<u><em>Plant → Bird → Snake</em></u>
<u><em>Plant → Insect → Bird → Snake</em></u>
<u><em>Plant → insect</em></u><em> → Frog → </em><u><em>Snake</em></u>

<h3> 7. Which organism belongs to more than one trophic level? </h3>

The bird can be located in both the second and third trophic level, being a primary consumer —when it feeds on plants— or secondary, when it feeds on insects.

<h3> 8. What are decomposers? From which trophic levels are the organisms that decomposers feed on? </h3>

Decomposers are generally bacteria and fungi, organisms capable of degrading organic matter, thus enriching the soil. Decomposers can feed on any trophic level.

<h3> 9. What does a pyramid of energy show about the amount of energy available at different trophic levels of a food chain? </h3>

As the ascent of the pyramid occurs —or at the upper trophic level— the amount of energy available decreases. This is because from one trophic level to another only 10% of the energy can be used. If a plant has 5000 Kcal available, the herbivore that consumes it can only use 500 Kcal.

<h3> 10. Why do different trophic levels have different amounts of energy?</h3>

The main <u>reason for the difference in energy in each trophic level is that energy is lost in each one of them</u>, which the organisms use in their metabolism. A consequence of the metabolism is the loss of energy as heat, which is acquired by the environment.
