Answer:
Biosphere
Explanation:
The biosphere is the part of the earth that supports life forms. It includes hydrosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere. Various ecosystems, aquatic or terrestrial, are present in the biosphere. Biotic and abiotic components of a geographical region that interact with each other together make an ecosystem.
The biotic component of an ecosystem includes all the organisms present in it. Organisms may be unicellular or multicellular. All the organisms are made up of one or more cells. Cells are made up of various biomolecules that interact and enable cells to perform the life processes.
Answer:
b. Increase in activity of glycogen phosphorylase.
Explanation:
Glycogen synthase exists in two forms which is phosphorylated form which is covalent modification of serine residues by ATP and dephosphoryated form which is obtained using phosphatase on phosphorylated form. Glycogen phophorylase catalyzes hydrolysis of glycogen which shortens glycogen molecules.
The cause of the change in insect characteristics occurred when a few survivors of the 1st spray became resistant to the insecticide. When they had offspring, those insect babies are born with the trait that made them resistant to insecticide. This occurs when the parents pass on the trait to their offspring. The end result is that the insecticide is less effective and more insects survive.
