How does disease affect the ecosystem? I don’t know... Just kidding Explanation:
Most ecosystems include viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites that cause disease. ... Where ecosystems are not healthy, due to a loss in biodiversity and threats such as habitat loss, climate change, pollution, or invasive species, wildlife and ecosystems are more vulnerable to emerging diseases.
Answer: A) Layers 1 and 2.
Explanation:
Secondary succession refers to when species of plants and animals come back to recolonise an area that was destroyed by a natural disaster of some sort or human activity that change the makeup of the area but somehow left it still capable of supporting life.
As the species that come during secondary succession come after the land has been destroyed so to speak, they would be the later species to arrive which would mean that when they died they would be the closest to the surface when their body decays.
Secondary succession would therefore most likely be observed between layers 1 and 2.

Answer:
1. Ends of the respiratory branches are called alveoli.
2. C. To control blood flow to different areas of the body depending on activities
Explanation:
1. The trachea divides into left and right primary bronchi which in turn divide multiple times upon entering the lungs and make the bronchial tree.
The final branches of the bronchial tree are the terminal bronchioles that lead to alveoli. The alveoli are the balloon-shaped structures and serve as the site of gas exchange between the blood and inhaled air.
2. The opening and closing of sphincters of capillary beds regulate the direction of blood flow. The opening of sphincters allows the blood to flow into associated branches of capillary beds while closed sphincters direct the blood from arterioles to venules via thoroughfare channel.
This local change in blood flow is responsible for the autoregulation of blood flow to different tissues to match their respective metabolic demands. For example, during physical activity, more blood is directed to skeletal and cardiac muscles.
