Answer:

B. Energy needs

Explanation:

As an individual ages there is a characteristic natural loss of muscle mass that occurs and increases as they move into older years. Changes in lifestyle, such as transition from employment to retirement, also account for a decrease in energy needs. This is because there is less amount of work done during retirement than when an individual is actively working.

The less amount of work is the reason why there is also a corresponding decrease in the energy needs.

Write three facts you discovered about patterns of heredity and human genetics
lubasha [3.4K]
If two parents have dark hair, the child will most likely have dark hair.
If one has light and the other dark, the child has a 75% chance of having dark hair or a dark-dominated mix because the gene for dark hair is dominant.
If two parents have light hair, the child will most likely have light hair.

Of course, it gets a lot more complicated than this, the genes of the child's grandparents and great grandparents could be carried by the parents as well. So if the parents have dark hair but they each have a parent with light hair, the light hair gene will be carried by them and could be passed on to the child. That's how it is with genetic disorders, such as Systic Fibrosis or Sickle Cell Anemia.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Decomposers can break down any dead organic matter. Since any of the organic matter consume can come from any level, there isn't a specific place for decomposers. It is hard to place them because as you travel up the food pyramid energy is lost. Decomposers would have their own level because of this.
