Energy will take the path from sun to stomach as sun's energy to chemical energy followed by thermal and mechanical energy.

Explanation:

The energy of the sun is in the from of chemical energy which is the ultimate basis of life on earth . The process of photosynthesis occurs to form a chemical compound named glucose. The food ingested is in polymer complex forms as protein, carbohydrate, fats etc which is broken into monomers for absorption in intestine and stomach.

The dietary compound has energy stored in their bonds as chemical energy.

So, from sun human consume chemical energy which is stored in food.

The energy even if consumed by eating meat is also chemical energy which is stored as potential energy.

The breakdown of food or chemical energy into monomers leads to release of thermal energy or heat to maintain optimum body temperature.

Chemical energy also gets converted to mechanical energy which allows functioning of vital organs and movement of body.

o-na [289]

Answer:

The given statement is True.

Explanation:

Scala media has endolymph as its constituent and endolymph  is rich in Potassium ions (K+)

whereas

Scala tympani and  scala vestibuli has in its composition Perilymph and Perilymph has sodium ions as their major constituent ions.

Therefore, scala media is Potassium ion rich while scala tympani and vestibuli are sodium ion rich.

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The rough endoplasmic reticulum

Explanation:

The rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle that has the main function of producing proteins for the cell.

Antibodies are a type of protein, so they are made by the ER.

Since the immune cell can rapidly produce antibodies, it must have a significant amount of rough ER to make the proteins.

vodomira [7]

There are 16 percent of farmers that are affected by the pest infestation.

What percent of gardeners overall had pests?

We know that three of the 13 farmers who used chemicals had pests whereas Seven of the 47 farmers who used fences had pests. So in total there are 10 farmers that are affected from pest out of 60 farmers.

So we can conclude that There are 16 percent of farmers that are affected by the pest infestation.

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Le châtelier's principle states that if a stress is applied to a system in dynamic equilibrium, the system changes to relieve the stress.

Explanation:

This principle shows that when we change a system in equilibrium, it will seek to acquire a new state that nullifies this disturbance. Thus, there is a displacement of equilibrium, that is, a search for a new equilibrium situation, favoring one of the senses of the reaction. If it favors the direct reaction, with formation of more product, we say that the equilibrium has shifted to the right. However, it is said that it shifted to the left if the reverse reaction was favored, with formation of reagents.
