Answer:

Option B , Binding Energy

Explanation:

The energy in combining two nucleus is lost in binding them. This binding energy is too large that it causes significant loss of mass and is calculated using the Einstein’s theory of relativity.  

When two nucleons combine , mass defect is caused which leads to loss of mass associated with energy and therefore the mass of nucleus is less than the mass of nucleons.  

Hence, Option B is correct.

Chemical triggers and messengers for many
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Proteins

Explanation:

Proteins are macromolecules composed of amino acids that perform multiple and varied functions in the body. Proteins that act as chemical messengers are present in the form of hormones, ligands, neurotransmitters, regulatory proteins and enzymes.

Genes code for proteins that in turn control all life processes. The differences we witness in individuals such as weight, height, skin color, intelligence etc are all due to our unique genetic code and a unique combination of proteins that these genes encode. Furthermore, the levels to which our genetic code is expressed is also regulated at the molecular level by proteins.

Explain how energy is transferred through a food web and food chain using the law of conservation of energy.
german
Energy is transferred with 90 percent less than the previous amount. For instance, producers start with 100 percent of energy considering they, well, produce the energy. Then, an herbivore comes and eats said producer, but only receives 10 percent of the energy. And so on and so forth as energy decreases as more consumers come along, which is why those at the top of the food web/chain typically eat more.

Hope this helps!
