The disadvantages of the pyramid of productivity as a representation: The rate of biomass production of an organism is required, which involves measuring growth and reproduction through time. There is still the difficulty of assigning the organisms to a specific trophic level.
Answer:
Specialized cells because they preform a specific function
The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:
Which of the following is not true regarding fenestrated capillaries?
A) Fenestrated capillaries in endocrine organs allow hormones rapid entry into the blood.
B) Fenestrated capillaries in the small intestine receive nutrients from digested food.
C) Fenestrated capillaries are essential for filtration of blood plasma in the kidney.
D) Fenestrated capillaries form the blood-brain barrier.
Answer:
Fenestrated capillaries form the blood-brain barrier.
Explanation:
The fenesterated capillaries are small fine thin capillaries that helps in the exchange of substances. These capillaries are mainly found in the kidney, small intestine and glands.
The fenestrted capillaries allow the exchnage of hormone in the blood and in the kidney for the filtration. The nutrients can be easily exchanged by the capillaries present in the small intestine. The blood brain barrier function is not performed by the fenesterated capillaries. They allows the rapid exchange function and not as the barrier.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
The natural rate of extinction as assumed by science is about 5 species per year. Currently scientists estimate we are losing species at 1000-10000 times that rate, with multiple species disappearing every day. A note on this idea is that the average extinction rate gives an unrealistic depiction of nature when we consider the catastrophic extinction events that ended the dinosaurs and shaped the ice age.
