Answer
About 10% energy is converted to biomass from one trophic level to another trophic level.
Explanation
Food chain is composed of different trophic level which are classified on the basis of their mood of food obtain. These include
1. Producers (photosynthetic)
2. Primary consumers (herbivore)
3. secondary consumer (Carnivore)
4. Tertiary consumer (carnivore)
5.Quaternary consumer (Carnivore)
6. Decomposer
As larvae are hatched by insects which belong to second trophic level. About 90% of energy in food is lost at each trophic level. As move down the trophic level the number of organism also decreases in each trophic level. Therefore, energy transfer from one trophic level to another is like a pyramid.
Answer:
Glucose
Explanation:
The brain is an energy-hungry organ. Despite comprising only 2 percent of the body’s weight, the brain gobbles up more than 20 percent of daily energy intake. Because the brain demands such high amounts of energy, the foods we consume greatly affect brain function, including everything from learning and memory to emotions.
Just like other cells in the body, brain cells use a form of sugar called glucose to fuel cellular activities. This energy comes from the foods we consume daily and is regularly delivered to brain cells (called neurons) through the blood.
Studies suggest the quality of the foods consumed over a lifetime affects the structure and function of the brain. For instance, the consumption of omega-3 fatty acids found in fish provides structural material to maintain neurons. Studies also suggest omega-3 fatty acids are essential for the transmission of information between brain cells. In contrast, foods that are rich in sugars and saturated fats have been found to promote oxidative stress, which leads to damage to cell membranes.
The food you eat also affects molecules in the brain that support cognition. Some foods, such as those with turmeric, support cognition by helping to maintain molecular events related to energy metabolism.
Recent studies suggest lifestyle choices that affect the metabolism of nerve cells, such as diet and exercise, may in some cases provide a non-invasive and effective strategy to counteract neurological and cognitive disorders.
The main force that causes filtration in a nephron is... glomerular hydrostatic pressure.
I hope this helped:)
The statement is
"True".<span>
<span>Source control program are aimed to reduce the cultivation of
opium, coca, marijuana, poppies etc and their eradication along with other
measures. The idea is that when there will be fewer crops available for the
drug production, the price will increase and potentially less people will have
access to drugs. </span></span>
Answer:
decreases reabsorption of calcium by the kidneys
Explanation
from what ive found, calcitonin stops osteoclast activity, makes bones stronger, stimulates the sythesis of vitamin D, but does not (in anywhere i have read) decrease reabsorption in the kidneys. I really hope this helps.,,
if im wrong i am so sorry :(
