He tells her that often scientists do not favor pyramid of biomass because obtaining biomass requires advanced technology

The option C is correct.

Explanation:

The pyramid of biomass is the measure of the amount of biomass of living organisms present at every trophic level or unit area.

The biomass of pyramid is often not preferred by scientist because calculating the biomass is a tedious process.

It requires the heating of dead organism at high temperatures until a dry mass with constant value is obtained.

Although for biomass the size of the organism is taken into account but obtaining biomass requires advance technology.

The rate of biomass increase in organism in growth period is also tedious to measure.

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Dementia

Explanation:

Dementia is a condition that involves impaired mental ability and memory which is common among older adults. This condition, which is a major contributor to disability and placement of older adults in nursing homes, can be as a result of several factors of which nutrition has a major role to play. Metabolic and endocrine problem that results to the inability of the body system to regulate nutrients such as calcium and vitamin B-12, are some of the factors that triggers dementia in older adults. Also, nutritional deficiencies such as dehydration, inadequate intake of vitamin B-1, vitamins B-6, copper,vitamin E, and vitamin B-12 increases the chances of developing dementia in older adults.

Research shows that low levels of vitamin D can be linked to increased risk of developing dementia, and as such, supplements such as B-complex vitamin, vitamin C, and vitamin D is usually recommended for the prevention of dementia, especially when they are deficient in the diets taken.
