Answer:
The statement that says "Energy enters a food chain as heat energy and leaves it as light energy" is false.
Explanation:
The energy that enters the food chains, first of all, is light energy from the sun. This energy is assimilated by plants to convert it into chemical energy, through photosynthesis.
When energy flows from producers, plants, to consumers and decomposers, a great amount of <u>energy is lost, in the form of </u><u>heat energy</u>, due to the metabolism of living beings. Additionally, the second law of thermodynamics states that when energy passes from one form to another it leads to disorder in the system, which would also explain the loss of energy.
The true statement is "Energy enters a food chain as <u>light energy</u> and leaves it as <u>heath energy"</u>.
A vaccine works by training the immune system to recognize and combat pathogens, either viruses or bacteria.
Answer and explanation:
Epinephrine and norepinephrine are two hormones that are released from the adrenal medulla when the body is under stress (like during exercise, for example) as a part of the sympathetic response.
These hormones have many functions and they all work together to prepare the individual for a fight or flight response -<em> like increasing heart rate and producing bronchodilatation</em>. One of these functions is the rise of glucose levels in blood which is important for this substance to reach several tissues, like the skeletal muscle. The skeletal muscle will make use of this glucose to produce ATP and generate the required energy for muscle contraction through a process called glycolysis, which is key for the fight or flight response mentioned above.
When we exercise, glucose levels rise thanks to these hormones so the skeletal muscle can have enough energy to contract and move as we want. If the exercise is too intense or prolongued, glucose levels will drop and other fuels will be needed to sustain this activity, like stored glycogen and fat.
