Animals, including plants and some other microbes, get energy directly from the sun. But when they’re INDIRECTLY getting energy from the sun, they eat other organisms, like plants and/or meat.
If water had weak surface tension, insects would not be able to land on or walk on water.
Surface tension is the force acting on the surface of water that makes it to behave like a stretched elastic skin.
Surface tension owes to the intermolecular attraction between water molecules. The molecules at the surface of water are drawn inwards by other molecules causing the molecules at the surface to contract. This surface tension enables insects to land on or walk on water.
So, without surface tension of water, insects would not be able to land on or walk on water.

Answer:
The correct answer is: Uncontrolled release of digestive enzymes into the duodenum.
Explanation:
- SER or the Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum is the major location in the cells where fatty acids and steroid molecules are produced.
- These fatty acid molecules form the structure of the various membranes in the cell, including the plasma membrane and organelle membrane.
- The membrane system of the cells gives them a structural integrity.
- Disruption of the SER of the pancreatic acinar cells by a toxin will prevent the synthesis of lipid molecules which forms the membranes in the cell.
- This will cause the membrane to lose its integrity, fluidity, flexibility and the ability to prevent unregulated movement of molecules across them.
- The digestive enzymes need to secreted by the pancreatic acinar cells into the duodenum only when food is available in the duodenum for digestion.
- But loss of the ability of the plasma membrane of the pancreatic acinar cells to regulate the flow of molecules across itself (due to disruption in the lipid production by SER) causes the unregulated flow of digestive enzymes out of the cells into the duodenum as soon as they get produced.
All cells have selectively permeable membranes, which means that only they let certain important molecules inside the cell, while the others stay outside the cell.
This occurs by the process of diffusion or osmosis.
You are likely to see a connotation used in both advertisement and also some university lectures. If only one answer is permitted, B is the best answer.
