Answer:

D.)  A rabbit running a predator

Explanation:

The process of breakdown of glucose into CO2 and H2O is exergonic process and releases energy which is stored in the form of ATP. ATP serves as energy currency for all the functions performed be living beings.

The rate of glucose breakdown is maximum during intense physical activity to meet the increased demand for ATP.

Among the given options, since the rabbit is running to save its life from a predator, it would use maximum energy to protect itself. hence, the rabbit would exhibit a higher rate of energy production through glucose breakdown as compared to others.

Glucose is broken down any time the body needs energy fast.  Since the option with the most strenuous and energy-consuming task is (D) in which a rabbit runs for its life, the answer is (D).

Answer:

lateral; inferior

Explanation:

In anatomical terms:

  • Superior is towards the head, and <u>inferior </u>is towards the feet.

List 3 ways muscle action may be determined.
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

The muscle action can be determined by:

* Prime Movers and antagonist: Prime movers are also called the agonist, it is the muscle that provides the force that drives the action. Regarding to the antagonist muscle, it is the opposite to a prime mover as it provides resistance or reverse in a given movement. They are paired up on opposite sides of a joint.

* Synergists: There are one (or more) synergists involved in an action, the are muscles that help the prime mover when it is playing its role.

* Stabilizers: Their fuction is to keep bones immobile when it is needed. For example, the muscle of your back, they are stabilizers when the keep your posture sturdy.

Arguments FOR GMOs? Arguments AGAINST GMOs?<br>​
stich3 [128]

❤️Hello!❤️ In my opinion, i'm against GMO's. First of all you need to understand what GMO stands for, GMO means (Genetically Modified Organisms) and does that REALLY sound appealing to eat (Be honest). So now we have that covered i'm going to tell you some reasons why YOU should avoid Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO's). First of all GMO's are unhealthy, according to the American Academy of Environmental Medicine. They cite animal studies showing organ damage, gastrointestinal and immune system disorders, accelerated aging, and infertility. Second of all, GMO's contaminate forever. GMO's cross pollinate and their seeds can travel. It is impossible to fully clean up our contaminated gene pool. Self propagating GMO pollution will outlast the effects of global warming and nuclear waste. The impact is huge, threatening the health of future generations. Third of all, GMO's increase herbicide use, most GMO crops are engineered to be “Herbicide tolerant”―they deadly weed killer. Monsanto, for example, sells Roundup Ready crops, designed to survive applications of their Roundup herbicide.  Between 1996 and 2008, US farmers sprayed an extra 383 million pounds of herbicide on GMO's. Overuse of Roundup results in “superweeds,” resistant to the herbicide. This is causing farmers to use even more toxic herbicides every year. ♒️ Hope this helps!♒️  ↪️ Autumn ↩️

What is the purpose of an antibody? Group of answer choices to stick to an antigen, alerting your body of the presence of a fore
Alexandra [31]

Answer: Antibodies are proteins that are found in the body on the surface of red blood cells and in the blood plasma ,they are very sensitive to foreign bodies and bad viruses and bacteria,when they notice the presence of anything that poses harm or a threat to the body system,they track it down and fight/destroy it.

Antibodies also play crucial role in hemostasis(stoppage of bleeding) in the sense that when the body is wounded or when someone gets a cut antibodies that are found in the plasma and some substances found in the platelets are released to play a role in sending signal to the blood clotting factors in the blood to be released to arrest the bleeding and prevent the person from bleeding out their entire blood.
