Endocrine Signaling
Signals from distant cells are called endocrine signals; they originate from endocrine cells. In the body, many endocrine cells are located in endocrine glands, such as the thyroid gland, the hypothalamus, and the pituitary gland.
b. 10% of energy is transferred from the first to the second trophic level.
Explanation:
In trophic level flow of energy is one way, only a small amount of energy get transferred with the organism. A large amount of energy gets dissipated in life processes like respiration, reproduction and digestion. The energy is also released as waste product. Thus, only ten per-cent of the total energy is present in the organism.
The energy transfer does not depend on the number of trophic levels.
Each trophic level receives the 10% energy from the previous trophic level as when algae is eaten by flagship.

Answer:
enable capillarity
Explanation:
It is well known that water tends to adhere to the walls of the vessel in which it is contained. This is due to the force of adhesion which is defined as the force of attraction between unlike molecules. Cohesion is defined as the force of attraction between like molecules. In the case of a plant, cohesion of water molecules in the xylem vessels prevents the water column from breaking. The forces of adhesion, surface tension and cohesion are the basis of capillarity,that is, the rise of liquids in capillary tubes.
