Sensory neurons are the neurons responsible for receiving the information from the environment or the stimuli. This sensory neurons pass the message thru interneurons and then to Central Nervous System (brain and spinal cord) which then sends the signal to the motor neuron. </span>
The autotrophs are the primary producer in the food chain and they are the ones who initiate the food chain. They produce food by using sunlight or sometimes chemical energy or reactions. They primarily use carbon dioxide, sunlight and water to form sugars or carbohydrates which become their energy source. They use the process of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to generate food. Examples of autotrophs are green plants, green algae, bacteria.
Heterotrophs cannot make their food via sunlight or other inorganic sources and hence are dependent on the autotrophs or other animals. The heterotrophs have been ranked as secondary and tertiary consumers and cannot be producers. They consume the organic products made by autotrophs to obtain energy for various metabolic and biological activities. The heterotrophs can be herbivore, carnivore, fungi, parasitic plants.
Some are photo-hetrotrophs, who use light as energy but cannot use carbon dioxide as the carbon source since they cannot fix the carbon like autotrophs.
If another predator, that is more efficient hunter, enters the territory of the puffins, the puffins will find themselves in a very tough situation. They will either have to adapt very quickly, or die out.
The evolutionary pressure will be there fro the puffins to push them in a direction to adapt and be netter hunters, thus fight for their existence. That would mean that the puffin's beak, but also their speed and efficiency will have to improve in order to compete or even out-compete the new predator.
If the puffins do not manage to adapt relatively quickly, and a food shortage occurs, than they will die out, as they will lose the fight for food constantly.
Answer:
A very short history of climate change research. The story of scientists discovering climate change is longer than many of us tend to imagine.
We’ve had a sense that what humans do might effect the climate since Antiquity.
