Answer:

Stable ecosystem

Explanation:

Considering the Lindeman’s rule of energy transfer, nearly 10% of energy is transferred from one trophic level to other and rest 90% is used by an organism for carrying out biological process. Thus, if a food chain is small, it will have few trophic levels and therefore the energy transferred to the apex organism will be sufficient to carry out its biological activities. However the energy transferred to an apex organism in a long food chain is relatively lesser that the requirement and in such scenario the apex animal may try to extract energy from other sources which shall make the ecosystem unstable

The somatic motor division consists of somatic motor neurons that innervate cardiac, smooth, and skeletal muscle cells. The soma
juin [17]

Answer: FALSE

Explanation:

The nervous system is the system that detects and responds to changes inside and outside the body. This system consists of the brain, the spinal cord and peripheral nerves. The structure and organisation of the tissues that form these components enables rapid communication between different parts of the body.

Parts of the nervous system includes:

--> Central Nervous System ( consists of the brain and spinal cord)

--> Peripheral Nervous System ( consists of nerves outside the brain and spinal cord).The two functional parts of the peripheral nervous system are made up of the sensory (afferent) and motor (efferent). The motor division is involved in activities that are voluntary (somatic nervous system) and involuntary (autonomic nervous system).

The somatic motor division consists of somatic motor neurons that innervates ONLY the SKELETAL MUSCLE for its voluntary actions while the autonomic motor neurons innervates the cardiac and smooth muscles. Therefore the statement is FALSE
