Answer:

The MOST reasonable explanation is that<em> animals have diversified into the vast number of niches provided by tree diversity</em>.

Explanation:

The tropical rainforest as a biome is located in areas near the equator, where precipitations are abundant and the average temperature is elevated most of the year. As a result of the climatic conditions, this biome gives shelter to a huge number of living organisms. Also, the canopy structure provides many refuges for plants and animals and is an important source of food. It also favors interactions between species. For example, there are too many plant species that live in trees, such as bromeliads,  and at the same time they provide refuge to other small animals, like frogs.

There are also too many species in the rainforest that have not been discovered yet.

How are hormone levels regulated?
sukhopar [10]

The correct answer is 2. By a feedback loop.

Hormone levels in the body is regulated by negative feedback mechanism. In this mechanism, a stimulus stimulates the release of a substances. After the effect of that substance its further release is inhibited. This can be understood by an example, the anterior pituitary gland stimulate the thyroid gland to release thyroxin and on increasing the thyroxin in the blood, feedback the hypothalamus and anterior pituitary to inhibit further release of thyroxin from thyroid gland.
