The correct answer is D. Plants are called autotrophs

Explanation:

If Eddie is authoring a book for kids on plants, the most important is to include key and accurate information about these living organisms such as their role in ecosystems and the way these obtain energy. In this context, the point Eddie needs to include is that plants are autotrophs, which means plants produce energy. This is possible through a process known as photosynthesis. that involves plants using water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide to synthesize energy. Also, this makes plants different from other organisms that need to consume others to obtain energy and are called heterotrophs. Thus, point D is the correct option because this describes a key feature of plants; also, other points are inaccurate.

Why the horses developed an oxygen debt when they exercised.

user100 [1]

Answer:

The horses developed an oxygen debt when they exercise because they suffered from Exercise-Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage (EIPH).

Explanation:

A temporary shortage of oxygen in the body tissues during physical exertion such as exercise or a sudden burst of activity is referred to as oxygen shortage.

Horses (compared to humans) are uniquely designed to experience little or none of this.

When the body takes up oxygen, it reacts with glucose to produce energy. This is called Aerobic respiration.

There is also another procedure that the body uses to produce energy. This occurs when glucose is broken down in the cells. After this happens, lactic acid is created but cannot be stored in the body and must be expelled.

This interval when energy is produced without the presence of oxygen is called "oxygen debt".

When a horse is fit, its breathing quickly returns to normal. The longer the time taken for the breathing to return to normal, the less fit the horse is.

One of the factors that can reduce the fitness of a horse is the Exercise-Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage (EIPH).

This occurs when blood vessle in the lung ruptures causing blood to bleed into the airways. So blood occupies space where oxygen should have. This reduced the amount of oxygen delivered to the blood stream. Hence the oxygen debt takes longer to be repaid.

Which day is considered to be the 1st day of the female reproductive system

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The day one starts with the first day of your periods when the blood and tissue lining the uterus (womb) break down and leave the body is considered to be the '1st day' of the 'female reproductive system'.

Explanation:

The periods, that is the 'first day of female reproductive system' starts during puberty and stops 'permanently at menopause'.

The menstrual cycle starts with the 'first day of bleeding', which is counted as 'day one'.

The menstrual cycle stops just before the "next menstrual period". Menstrual cycle normally ranges from 25 to 36 days.

The periods may last anywhere from '3 to 8 days', but '5 days' is average.
