Autotrophs are organisms that produce food food from sunlight or from inorganic substances via chemical processes.

They obatin their energy by converting very simple materials into complex and useful organic compounds for use in the ecosystem. One of such process is photosynthesis in which green plants uses sunlight and carbondioxide to produce glucose for their nourishment. Another of such process is chemosynthesis.

Most heterotrophs(consumers) relies on this source of energy for their own survival and nourishment.

brilliants [131]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Elastic fibers are composed of elastin, myofibrils and fibrillin. They are distributed <u>separately</u>, and therefore do not form bundles(they actually form a kind of mesh), like collagen fibers.

Elastic fibers are usually thin and long and can stretch up to 1.5x of their total length.

These fibers confer elasticity to the connective tissue. The mesh formed of elastic fibers easily yields to minimal tensions, returning to its original shape as soon as the deforming forces cease.

An example of the action of elastic fibers is when we pull the skin from our hands and release it, the elastic fibers are responsible for quickly returning the skin to its original shape.

The term glycocalix derives from the Greek glykys, sugar, and the Latin calyx, bark, a sugar peel. It consists of lipid-associated carobhydrates, commonly called glycolipids, and protein-associated caroboidates, called glycoproteins.

  According of all functions we have about glicocalix, the assertive letter C is the only is not a function about this structure.
