energy is lost at each level of consumption so it’s simply not efficient to be a 5th + level consumer
Answer:
The activity factor was modified. Ambulating indicates that the person is active. Even small activities require energy. So, people who can walk around and aren’t bedridden expend more calories than people who need to be on bedrest all day. Also, when the stress factor was changed to severe infection, the caloric requirement increased. This increase is probably because the immune system requires more energy to fight off the infection

The right answer is <span>A) semi-permeable membrane
<span>A semi-permeable membrane is a membrane permeable to a liquid (solvent) and impermeable (or poorly permeable) to substances dissolved in the liquid (solute).
</span>The tubule of a kidney consists of a semi-permeable membrane and has also specific transporters which allow absorption and reabsorption. These "tools" allows some substances like ions to be absorbed/reabsorbed (by the transporters), without any changes in the concentration of the other substances (because both the membrane and the transporters stopped them).</span>
Krebs cycle is a series of enzymatic reactions that catalyzes the aerobic metabolism of fuel molecules to carbon dioxide and water, thereby generating energy for the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules.
