</span>The milkweed is the primary producer in the
ecosystem. It manufactures food from the abiotic factors in the soil such as
nitrates and water and those in the atmosphere such as carbon-dioxide and
sunlight. The milk weed is then fed on by the caterpillar and a primary
consumer. The caterpillar is then fed on the mocking bird (secondary consumer)

</span>Increased human population growth and their activities
have resulted in the emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in
the atmosphere. This has increased the global temperature. This increase of
global temperature increase ocean temperatures causing coral bleaching.
Another example is depletion of water sources
by human activities hence causing drought. Drought reduces the amount of
vegetation growth due to scarcity of water in the soil (due to lowering of the
water table) for plant growth.
Answer: Central and Peripheral.
Explanation: The nervous system has two major divisions: central and peripheral. The central nervous system contains the brain and the spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system contains the nerves, which leave the brain and the spinal cord and travel to certain areas of the body.
The atmospheric temperature (varying according to pressure and humidity) below which water droplets begin to condense and dew can form.
There are options for this question they are:
a) neutral stimulus; conditioned stimulus
b) conditioned stimulus; neutral stimulus
c) unconditioned stimulus; conditioned stimulus
d) neutral stimulus; unconditioned stimulus
e) unconditioned stimulus; neutral stimulus
The correct answers are - In this example, the buzzer begins as the neutral stimulus and eventually becomes the conditioned stimulus. The buzzer initially is a neutral stimulus because it have no role to play in the blinking response. Eventually though through learned association the buzzer becomes a conditioned stimulus because you now associate it with a puff of air to the eye which in turn causes you to blink.
