1. Why is more energy needed during exercise?
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

1) The muscles need more energy as the breathing rate and heart rate increase to bring more oxygen into the body and remove carbon dioxide. More energy is needed to supply muscles with extra oxygen and remove carbon dioxide.

2) Glycogen in the muscles.

3) Rate and volume of breathing increases,

Cardiac output is increased,

Blood flow from nonessential organs is provided to the working muscle.

4) Muscle cells respire anaerobically when there is a temporary deficiency of oxygen during high intensity exercises.

5) Lactic acid.

6) Muscle fatigue is when the muscle cannot perform as normal (decline of ability) due to a result of vigorous exercise.

7) A temporary oxygen shortage in the body tissues due to exercise.

8) Oxygen+ Lactic acid goes to Carbon dioxide + water.

9) The body continues to respire in order to get more oxygen and remove carbon dioxide.

10) The heart rate and breathing rate stay high after exercise in order to repay the oxygen debt and remove carbon dioxide. They also have to reduce the acid based balance in the muscles to neutral.

11) Lactic acid can also removed by being converted into Glycogen. This involves the muscles as glycogen is a product of the muscles

Why are detritivores, decomposers and omnivores not assigned trophic levels
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The reason is because detritivores and decomposers and omnivores are multilevel food chain consumers in an ecosystem making them not qualified to be assigned to a given trophic level

Explanation:

An organism is placed in a trophic level based the level it is from where the food chain starts with the start of the food chain having a level of 1 for the food producers such including plants and algae

Level 2 organisms are called primary consumers and consists of organism that eat only plants known as herbivores such as cattle

Level 3 organisms are called secondary consumers and consists of animal eating organism known as carnivores such as foxes  etc.  

Level 4 organisms are called tertiary consumers  

Level 5 organisms are the a p e x p r e d a t o r s

Detritivores and decomposers such as bacteria, earthworm flies fungi consume the wastes produced at all trophic levels, therefore they cannot be assigned to a particular trophic level

Similarly, omnivores consumes both plants at level 2 and animals at level 3 making it ambiguous to assign them to one particular trophic level.
