B

Keep in mind that total energy in the beginning and after work remains the same according o thermodynamics theory that energy can't be created or destroyed.

Explanation:

Conversion of energy from one form to another is not 100% efficient. Even the transfer of energy from one object to another (work) is not 100% efficient. This also applies to cells. The inefficiencies are lost as heat energy. Examples of such work in the cells include active transport by cell membrane protein channels, metabolic pathways, and etcetera. Some energy in the hydrolysis of ATP to power these biochemical activities is lost as heat which is part of the reason we remain warm. This energy ends up being lost into the environment as heat (e.g even from sweating).

What do the rib muscles and diaphragm have in common?
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Both are breathing muscles

Explanation:

When rib muscles and the diaphragm contract they increase the volume of the chest cavity, increasing the air pressure outside the body, causing air to rush into the lungs to fill the vacuum created by the increase in volume.

Some species of cuckoos lay their eggs in the nests of other birds. When the birds hatch, the other species tends to the cuckoo’
Yanka [14]

Answer:

The correct answer would be C) It increases survival for cuckoos, but decreases survival of the other birds.

The host chicks often face lots of competition from the cuckoo chicks in terms of food as well as space. It makes it difficult for the host chicks to survive.

It has also been found that cuckoo chicks beg to be fed more intensely due to which host chick die due to starvation.  

In addition, in some species of cuckoo, cuckoo chicks remove host eggs from the nest within few days of hatching.
