<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

An increase in the total biomass of consumers in the world

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Carbon fixation is the process through which carbon dioxide is removed from the air and incorporated into an organic molecule.
  • Carbon fixation occurs during the light independent reaction of photosynthesis and is the first step in the C3 or Calvin Cycle.
  • The Calvin cycle uses the energy from short-lived electronically excited carriers to convert carbon dioxide and water into organic compounds that can be used by the organism.

Answer:

a decrease in the total biomass of consumers in the world

Explanation:

A decrease in carbon fixation would likely increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the air and decrease the amount of oxygen. This would change how much respiration and photosynthesis could take place, resulting in:

a decrease in the total biomass of consumers in the world,

an increase in the total biomass of producers in the world, and

a decrease in the size of insects and arthropods, since their ability to move oxygen from the air into and through their bodies is limited.

If you forget your water bottle when you go for a long walk on a warm day, what signal would most likely be sent to your kidneys
Nitella [24]

When we drink less water or we are dehydrated the body will compensate for 1-2% of the total amount of water by creating a sensation of thirst. The kidneys, brain, hormones and glands work in co-ordination monitoring the amount of water consumed to the amount of water lost.

The hypothalamus gland regulates the temperature of our body and balances the processes to control the amount of fluids in body. On detecting less amount of water in blood the hypothalamus gives signals for releasing the anti-diuretic hormone which causes kidneys to remove lesser amount of water from the blood. As a result of this we urinate less and the urine is concentrated dark in appearance. The brain also signals to consume water or liquid to bring the hydration level of the body to normal.

NK cells are activated in response to interferons  and also by various other responses. NK cells work to by secreting IFNγ and TNFα. Natural killer cells play a very important role in early host defense against viruses.
