It's b because decomposers do not make food they break it down
Answer:
3. Endotherms spend more energy on internal temperature regulation compared to ectotherms.
Explanation:
Ectotherms, are considered as cold-blooded animals (reptiles and amphibians), and are organisms that don't have the ability to generate enough heat to keep themselves warm. Endotherms, in contrast, do possess the ability to generate their own body heat.
Endotherms also called warm blooded animals (mammals) have the ability to regulate their body temperature by themselves. If the endotherms are in a cold place their body increases the metabolism and generates more heat. This will compensate for the cold outside.
Answer:
Reflexes are not a function of the spinal cord.
Explanation:
The spinal cord is part of the central nervous system and is made up of neurons that go along it (from the end of the brain stem almost to the bottom of the spine).
The spinal cord receives incoming messages from the peripheral nervous system (including the sensory neurons) and pass on messages from the brain to efferent neurons (motor neurons at muscles).
The spinal cord contributes to learning as it passes on the info received from sensory neurons (that there is an obstacle in the path) to the brain and passes on the response from the brain to the muscles (to lift the foot up higher).
The spinal cord is essential for integration as it passes on sensory information to the brain to determine motor output.
Reflexes are when sensory information is quickly sent straight to motor neurons to move. It does not need to go to the brain (hence does not need to go to the spinal cord) for the reaction as it would be too slow. This is seen when someone who is paraplegic (paralysed at lower torso) can still move their leg in response to the doctor tapping their knee even when they cannot forcibly move their legs.
Therefore reflexes are not a function of the spinal cord.
Answer:
The males can only either be black or orange
Explanation:
There can be no male calico because for an offspring to be a calico the two codominant alleles must each be carried on the two X chromosomes and in the males, there is the presence of just one X chromosomes, thus they can either be black or be orange. For the females, the can only be black if they carry the black allele on both X chromosomes, the same goes for the orange.
Parents XB Y
XB XBXB <u>XBY</u>
XC XCXB <u> XCY </u>
XBY- black male
XCY- orange male
I know this answer but it is really commutated
