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

A rare orchid has been found in the mountains in China.
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a mutation in the germinal line changed the phenotype to bright flowers which were capable of attracting more pollinators compared to yellow flowers. Subsequently, this mutation was selected by natural selection, thereby increasing its frequency in the population

Explanation:

A mutation is any change in the nucleotide DNA sequence of the genome of a particular organism. Mutations can be divided into 1-germinal mutations (i.e., mutations that occurred in the gamete cells) which can be passed on to offspring, and 2-somatic mutations (i.e., mutations that occurred in the somatic cells), which cannot be inherited. Moreover, mutations can be neutral, deleterious or beneficial depending on the environment in which the organism lives. When a germinal mutation is beneficial, the organism carrying the mutation will have more chances to survive and reproduce (i.e., a higher adaptive fitness), thereby the organism will have more chance to pass this mutation to the next generation and the mutation will increase its frequency in the population.
