<span>Sympathetic dominance---
 Increase in muscle mass----- Raise


Decreased in insulin----- </span>Lower the tmr<span>
Decrease in TSH ---- Lower the tmr
Increase in adrenal cortex function ------</span>raising the tmr<span>
Increase in thyroxine ---- </span>raising the tmr<span>
Training for a marathon -----raising the tmr
Malabsorption of nutrients-------- </span>Lower the tmr<span>
Decrease in adrenal medulla function ------ </span>Lower the tmr<span>
Epinephrine secretion------- </span>raising the tmr

The total metabolic rate is the total energy used by the body each day. Physical activity such as Training for a marathon require more energy and leads to increasing the tmr. Whereas, malabsorption of nutrients lowering the tmr because less food is being supplied,  and therefore less energy production.

Algae are at the first trophic level. Flagfish are in the second trophic level. When a Flagfish eats algae, what percent of ener
dangina [55]

b. 10% of energy is transferred from the first to the second trophic level.

Explanation:

In trophic level flow of energy is one way, only a small amount of energy get transferred with the organism. A large amount of energy gets dissipated in life processes like respiration, reproduction and digestion. The energy is also released as waste product. Thus, only ten per-cent of the total energy is present in the organism.

The energy transfer does not depend on the number of trophic levels.

Each trophic level receives the 10% energy from the previous trophic level as when algae is eaten by flagship.

African cichlids are a group of closely related fish species. There are at least 500 known species living in three small lakes.
Readme [11.4K]
The correct answer that would best complete the given statement above would be the term ADAPTIVE RADIATION. African cichlids are a group of closely related fish species. There are at least 500 known species living in three small lakes. Over time, specialized teeth and body colorations have evolved for each species in response to mutations and competition for food and mates. This change over time is an example of ADAPTIVE RADIATION. Adaptive radiation by definition, is <span>the diversification of a group of organisms into forms filling different ecological niches.</span>
