Answer:
G
Explanation:
TATC is being inserted into the sequence
Answer:
The assimilation of the primary consumer is 5000 kcal/m2/yr, option C.
Explanation:
From the information in the question, the Net Production Efficiency, NPE can be calculated using 100Cp/AS.
Where CP is the consumer productivity and AS is the Assimilation.
Therefore, 20 = 100 x 1000/AS
AS = 100,000/20 = 5000 kcal/m2/yr. Option C.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
In biology, homeostasis is the state of steady internal, physical, and chemical conditions maintained by living systems. This is the condition of optimal functioning for the organism and includes many variables, such as body temperature and fluid balance, being kept within certain pre-set limits.
Answer:
A: Oxygen levels are low and, therefore, more red blood cells are produced, giving the athletes an advantage when competing at lower altitudes.
Explanation:
<em>At high altitudes, the partial pressure of oxygen is lower compared to lower altitudes</em>. The body system try to adjust to lower oxygen level by undergoing several physiological changes. Depending on the duration spent in high altitude, the body can either try to adjust in the short term or acclimatize for a longer term.
One of the processes the body undergoes during acclimatization is an increase in red blood cell production. The kidney secretes erythropotein in response to inadequate oxygen in body tissues, and this makes the liver to increase erythrocyte production.
The increase in red blood cell production correspondingly increases the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood as a result of increased hemoglobin. This condition persists for a few weeks even after the body returns to lower altitude where oxygen is adequate. Increased oxygen capacity means the rate of energy production (through respiration) within the body will also increase
<em>Hence, those who acclimatize to high altitude usually experience increased capillary density, tissue perfusion and improved athletic performance at lower altitudes. </em>
The correct option is A.
Answer:
B) cytoskeleton
Explanation:
the cytoskeleton is a network of connected filaments and tubules.
