Answer:

second)some of the energy disperses as heat

Explanation:

This  second law of thermodynamics  states that in the course of conversion  of energy from  one form  to another in an organisms,this can not be 100% efficient ( there is constant increase in entropy of the systems in the organism)as some of  the  energy is dissipated as heat in the course of conversion.

Thus in  a food chain as energy is been converted from one trophic level( primary consumer) to another( secondary consumer) these organism makes use of the energy to do biologic work.Therefore as this is passed to other organism in the tropic levels not all the  initial energy will be available ,as some has been lost during biology work,respiration , excretion ,movements and locomotion. in the subsequent organisms.

Thus the entropy of the organisms involved increases as energy is been transmitted from one trophic level to another which leads to heat dispassion.

What are the structures and functions of the tissues lining the respiratory organs?
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

1-The respiratory system is the network of organs and tissues that help you breathe. It includes your airways, lungs and blood vessels. The muscles that power your lungs are also part of the respiratory system. These parts work together to move oxygen throughout the body and clean out waste gases like carbon dioxide.

2-The fluid represents the outermost layer of the alveolar surface that is directly exposed to air and thus to the environment. Alveolar fluid prevents desiccation of the epithelial cells and also functions as a physical protection barrier against inhaled particles and irritants.

3-The main function of surfactant is to lower the surface tension at the air/liquid interface within the alveoli of the lung. This is needed to lower the work of breathing and to prevent alveolar collapse at end-expiration.

4-The trachea (windpipe) conducts inhaled air into the lungs through its tubular branches, called bronchi. The bronchi then divide into smaller and smaller branches (bronchioles), finally becoming microscopic. The bronchioles eventually end in clusters of microscopic air sacs called alveoli.

Describe 3 ways a mutation can occur?
Blababa [14]

These changes can be caused by environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation from the sun, or can occur if an error is made as DNA copies itself during cell division. Acquired mutations in somatic cells (cells other than sperm and egg cells) cannot be passed to the next generation.
