"B" is the correct answer

Answer:

B. Slow twitch fibers contain more mitochondria than fast twitch fibers.

Explanation:

The slow-twitch muscle has a characteristic red color, this is because is rich in myoglobin and mitochondria. Also is dense in capillaries. It uses an oxidation reaction involving oxygen and fat or carbohydrates. This fibers contract with little force but for long periods.

The fast-twitch muscle has great strength but can only hold it for short periods. It is called white muscle because is less dense in mitochondria and myoglobin and work with anaerobic reactions.

The muscles in your body are a mixture of both types.

Taking into consideration all this, A, C, and D are false, and B is true.

Which of the following best explains the importance of water to humans?
V125BC [204]
All of the above.

Water is essential, you can only survive an average of 3 days without it. (some people have survived for longer though.)

Water is important for shipping and trade, because, ships. They go across water. Trade happens. It's hard to fit a lot in airplanes and you have to monitor it's weight slowly. Across land, it's also hard to fit a lot in random trucks driving across what was an ocean. (it would also be much more tedious) It's also one of the cheapest ways.

It is, I guess. There is a high demand for water, and a limited amount as well. It would also be profitable because you can get water easily, or something. (I don't really know for this one but the other two are true so I guess you can't select two so yeah.)

What does sustainability mean? please give examples too
satela [25.4K]
Hi there!

Sustainability means that something or someone has the ability to keep something going. 

For example, a plant could have good life sustainability because it has a special poison, keeping predators away from it.

You could be self sustainable by growing your own crops, collecting your own water, and making things you need.

Hope this helps!

How does the introduction of invasive species such as the brown tree snake upset the stability of the legal system
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Invasive species compete for the same natural resources such as food and water which the native species also need for survival.

Explanation:

Invasive species upset the stability of the ecosystem because the prey in their new environment does not have the needed defense against them. They also upset the food chain, consume so much, and overpopulate in the new territory thus causing the extinction of the native species.

The introduction of brown tree snakes in Guam disrupted the ecological system as their population increased rapidly because their preys in this new environment lacked the ability to defend themselves against the brown tree snakes. For this reason, more than twelve native birds in the Guam Islands went into extinction. They also consumed the natural resources needed for the survival of the native species.
