Answer:
"My nutritionist measures energy content of food by using a bomb calorimeter."
Explanation
Animals humans included eat food in order to get chemical energy through cellular respiration either aerobically or anaerobically.
Therefore, food energy is the amount of chemical energy that can be derived from food.
Food energy can be measured using a bomb calorimeter and the unit of measurement is calories.
So when the client made the statement and mentioned energy content in food being measured by a calorimeter, it shows the client had an understanding on how energy in food is measured.

Answer:
Type I curve
Explanation:
The K-strategist are species characterized by relatively stable populations that fluctuate at the carrying capacity of the habitat or niche in which organisms reside. Elephants are considered as K-strategists because they have a low population growth rate and relatively stable populations. There are three different types of survivorship curves. The Type I curve (also referred to as A curve) is characteristic of k-strategist organisms. Humans and elephants exhibit a Type I survivorship curve in which organisms tend to die when they become elderly. These species have a small number of offspring and provide parental care to ensure their survival. In a Type II survivorship curve, species produce many offspring and only some offspring survive (e.g., birds), while in Type III survivorship curve organisms produce many more offspring and most do not survive (i.e., r-strategists such as frogs or insects).
Answer:
B) sympathetic and parasympathetic
Explanation:
e autonomic nervous system also called the vegetative nervous system is part of the peripheral nervous system which inervates smooth muscle and glands. Thus, it directly affects the function of internal organs and regulates functions such as the heart rate, digestion, respiratory rate, urination etc. This nervous system control is unconscious.
The autonomic nervous system is divided into: the sympathetic nervous system, the parasympathetic nervous system and the enteric nervous system.
Parasympathetic nervous system works when organism is at rest so it is known as system responsible for "rest and digest functions". On the other hand, sympathetic nervous system works at active and stressful situations and it is known as "fight and flight" system.
