Energy is transferred from one trophic level in a food chain to another. However, not all the energy available at a trophic level is transferred to the next.
Only about 10% of the energy in the lower trophic level gets to the immediate higher trophic level and the rest is lost as metabolic heat.
Thus, if a food chain starts with 10,000 grams of phytoplankton, the quantity that will get to the highest trophic level would depend on the number of intermediate trophic levels in between the lowest and the highest.
For every step the energy is transferred up the trophic level in the food chain, 90% of it is lost.

The trapezius is a(n) _____ to the pectoralis major.
Answer:
complement
Explanation:
The trapezius is a complement to the pectoralis major.
What is Trapezius?The trapezius may be characterized as one of the widest and most superficial muscles that are located in the upper back and trunk region. It is triangular in structure, wide, and thin that encircles the upper back of the shoulders and neck.
While the pectoralis major is the most superior and largest muscle that is located within the region of the anterior chest wall. This muscle is thick, fan-shaped in appearance positioned beneath the breast tissue, and constructs the anterior wall of the axilla.
Both of these muscle types complement each other in every aspect such as location, structure, appearance, etc.
Therefore, The trapezius is a complement to the pectoralis major.

Are humans a dead end host for streptococcus pneumonia? If yes please explain why. Thank you!
Answer:
No, because Pneumonia can be transferred from one person to another.
Explanation:
Because humans are the only natural host for S. pneumoniae, our data suggest that the CbpA-mediated recruitment of complement FH may contribute to host tropism of this pathogen. A person can spread the germs that cause pneumonia when he or she coughs and expels the bacterial or viral infections that caused the disease. The droplets containing the virus or bacteria can land on a common surface, such as a table, telephone, or computer. Anyone can get pneumococcal disease, it occurs more frequently in infants, young children, the elderly or in people with serious medical conditions such as chronic lung, heart or kidney disease. Others at risk include alcoholics, diabetics, people with weakened immune systems and those without a spleen.

using example, explain the concept of homeostasis
Answer:
Homeostatis: maintenance of constant internal environment (optimum temperature or optimum optimum osmotic concentration) that permits all the biochemical reactions and physiological functions to proceed with maximum efficiency.
▪For example, when we exercise, there is heat production in the body and the body temperature rises which gets detected by the nerve sensors present in the body and the temperature control system in the brain is activated. It then activates sweat glands that helps in bringing the body temperature back to normal.

When an unbalanced force acts on an object, in which direction does the object
move?
The object moves in the direction of the net force.
The object moves in the direction of the smaller force.
The object moves in the opposite direction of the unbalanced force.
The object moves in the direction of the unbalanced force.
Answer:
Explanation:
The object moves in the direction of the net force. It depends on what you have been told. I would say that A is the correct answer.

A
Both the forces shown above are unbalanced. But the object will not move in the direction of either of them. The net force is somewhere between the two given forces and that's the direction of the motion.

Answer:
Animal Physiology
Animal physiology is the study of how animals work, and investigates the biological processes that occur for animal life to exist. These processes can be studied at various levels of organization from membranes through to organelles, cells, organs, organ systems, and to the whole animal. Animal physiology examines how biological processes function, how they operate under various environmental conditions, and how these processes are regulated and integrated. The study of animal physiology is closely linked with anatomy (i.e., the relationship of function with structure) and with the basic physical and chemical laws that constrain living as well as nonliving systems. Although all animals must function within basic physical and chemical constraints, there is a diversity of mechanisms and processes by which different animals work. A comparative approach to animal physiology highlights underlying principles, and reveals diverse solutions to various environmental challenges. It can reveal similar solutions to a common problem, or modifications of a particular physiological system to function under diverse conditions. The discipline of animal physiology is diverse and here the major areas of research and investigation are outlined.

Chemical and Mineralogical Composition of Soils
Of the chemical elements essential for plant and animal physiology, only carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen, are derived directly from air and water. Nitrogen and to some extent sulfur are derived from the air but must be present as inorganic ions in the soil before they can be utilize by plants. The other essential elements are obtained from the dissolution of minerals in the soil. Essential element bearing minerals are derived from the geologic material within which the soil is formed. An inadequate supply of any essential element limits plant growth. The most frequent limitations result from insufficient plant-available nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, or magnesium.
Practically no nitrogen is present in soil minerals. Nitrogen enters the soil as ammonium and nitrate dissolved in rainwater or via fixation from the air by nitrogen-fixing microbes in the soil. Some nitrogen-fixing microbes in the soil are symbiotic and the nitrogen they extract from the air is incorporated into their legume plant host. Other nitrogen-fixing microbes are not symbiotic, and the nitrogen they extract from the air is incorporated into their cells. Nitrogen is also present in the organic residues of dead organisms in and on the surface layers of soil. Plants do not ingest the organic forms of nitrogen but as microbes in the soil decompose organic residues and exhaust carbon dioxide to the air inorganic forms of nitrogen are released into the soil solution and become available to growing plants, leach into the groundwater during periods of excessive rainfall, or return to the air as nitrogen gas during periods when the soil is saturated with water. Plant-available nitrogen contents in soil are transient and closely related to the nitrogen content in the organic residue and the rate at which the residue is decomposing.
Phosphorus is present in only a few minerals in the soil. Apatite, a soluble calcium phosphate mineral capable of supplying plant-available phosphorus, is the most common source of phosphorus and most abundant in soil formed in limestone. Iron and aluminum phosphate minerals are extremely insoluble and do not release phosphorus rapidly enough for rapid plant growth. Soils with high iron and aluminum contents tend to absorb phosphate applied as fertilizer and decrease its availability to plants. This is a serious problem in attempts to fertilize food crops in many soils in the tropics.
Potassium is present in mica and feldspar minerals. These minerals are rather easily decomposed in the soil environment and consequently are sparse in soils formed in siliceous materials and sediments that have been repeatedly transported and deposited on the land surface.
Calcium and magnesium are most abundant in carbonate minerals associated with limestone and some carbonate rich sandstone. Carbonate minerals are also relatively unstable when subjected to weathering and therefore most abundant in soils formed directly from limestone, some sandstone, and recently deposited sediments derived from carbonate rich rock.

Explain why a circulatory system is important in meeting the needs of all cells throughput an animals body.
Answer:
The system is connected to all of your body's cells so that it can transport oxygen efficiently. When you breathe, the circulatory system carries oxygen to your cells and carries dissolved carbon dioxide back to the lungs. Every cell that needs oxygen needs access to the fluids in your circulatory system.
