The relationship between the size of individual organisms and the number of organisms in a given trophic level is D) inversely proportional.
This is because a larger organism must consume more in order to sustain itself. Therefore, there can either be more organisms of smaller size or less organisms with larger size, because the energy entering a given trophic level is limited.
This is also the basis of formation of biomass pyramids, the total mass at higher trophic levels decreases.
Answer:
3- Breast-feeding can reduce an infant’s risk of infection, allergies, and certain chronic diseases.
.4- All mothers should consume 500 kcal extra daily while breast-feeding until weaning of the infant.
5- Women with AIDS or active tuberculosis should feed formula rather than breast-feed.
Explanation:
Breastfeeding is also a great benefit to the environment and society, that is, it does not require the use of energy for manufacturing or create waste or air pollution. Also, there is no risk of contamination and it is always at the right temperature and ready to feed. Given the importance of breastfeeding for the health of mothers and babies, Centers for Disease Control and prevention supports breastfeeding through hospital initiatives, work-site accommodation, continuity of care and community support initiatives. Colostrum is the earliest breast-milk produced, beginning in mid-pregnancy (12-18 weeks) and is continually produced for the first few days after baby's birth, it provides all the nutrients and fluid that your newborn needs in the early days, as well as many substances to protect your baby against infections. Mothers with untreated and active tuberculosis infections are not advised to breastfeed. They may breastfeed after their infection is cured or brought under control so that it does not spread to the infant.
Fragmentation, also known as splitting, as a method of reproduction is seen in many organisms such as filamentous cyanobacteria, molds, lichens, many plants, and animals such as sponges, acoel flatworms, some annelid worms and sea stars.
Limiting factors are resources or other factors in the environment that can lower the population growth rate. Limiting factors include a low food supply and lack of space. Limiting factors can lower birth rates, increase death rates, or lead to emigration.
