Answer:

Zinc. (Ans. B)

Explanation:

Trace minerals: Trace minerals are defined as the inorganic molecules which are necessary for the human body for the different functions.

Zinc function in human metabolism is defined as a cofactor for numerous enzymes. Zinc play a role as a catalyst in a broad range of reactions. It is involved in the metabolic pathway directly or indirectly with lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, energy metabolism, and they are also important for the cell division process.

They also need for tissue and growth repair, and for reproductive development also. It's also played a vital role in immune system such as wound healing or required for the function and structure of the skin.

A field of corn contains a certain amount of food energy. Compare the following situations and then answer the questions. Use th
trasher [3.6K]

Before assessing the two given cases, an assumption needs to be made about the digestion of the two types of food items, corn and beef. Let us assume that both get digested by expending same amount of energy by the human body. Let the amount of energy at producer level be an arbitrary X.

Case 1: Corn to human:

Since corn is at the producer level, it will have X amount of energy. The transfer of energy from corn to human will take place with a loss of 90% energy at the producer level. Hence the humans will receive 10% of X amount of energy.

Case 2: Corn to cow to human:

Since corn has X amount of energy, only 10% will pass to the next level, i.e. cow. So cow has 10% of X. Cow transfers only 10% of the energy that it has. Hence humans receive only 10% of 10% of X amount of energy.

It can be seen that humans receive more energy in case 1 than case 2. Hence we can say that it is more efficient for humans to feed on corn.
