Answer:
(B) Energy transfer between trophic levels is almost always less than 20% efficient.
Explanation:
The ultimate source of energy on the Earth is the Sun. The energy coming from the Sun is captured by green plants by the photosynthesis. During photosynthesis sun energy is fixed into chemical energy (carbohydrate). So, in an ecosystem energy flow is unidirectional (from sun to the green plants). The fixed chemical energy from green plants is transferred to the herbivores then to carnivores through food. When one organism eats another organisms, only 10 % of the energy present in the organism is transferred as a food for the next organism and a large amount of energy is lost as heat into the environment. Thus, energy keeps on decreasing when stored energy moves from producers to top consumers. Thus, less than 20% energy transfer limits the trophic levels in most of the ecosystem.
Human height is one of the traits that belong to traits that cannot easily be placed in discrete phenotypic classes (there is not only tall and short people, there is continuous variation of height between them). Such traits are usually controlled by more than one gene (polygenic traits).
On the other hand, a Mendelian trait is controlled by a single locus.
Abiotic means is not or never was living.
b. the wind is not a living thing

questions:
Should I or can I eat salty foods?
Do I have to check my pressure immediately?
Do I have to follow a balanced diet?
Is it good to do physical activity?
Do I have to worry about the signs of eye flickering and headache?
Explanation:
Blood pressure is regulated by endogenous mechanisms, although these sometimes fail and it is necessary to take drugs to reduce high blood pressure, an example of which is beta-blockers.
Blood pressure is also regulated by diets based on low sodium consumption, necessary calories and with great contributions of nutrients since cardiac or cardiovascular health is also essential in the face of possible formation of atheroma plaques.
The increase in blood pressure with the appearance of atheroma plaques is very common, and it is also the two most frequent causes of AMI (acute myocardial infarction)
