Contrast the different ways bromeliads and pitcher plants acquire nutrients from animal sources. NOT COMPARE.
dezoksy [38]
<span>Bromeliads are an example of mutualism where they create mini-ecosystems that house other small animals by collecting rainwater in their leaves. The bromeliad benefits from the nutrients when these organisms decompose when they die. Unlike the Pitcher plants which are predators, they actively trap insects and other small animals in their pitchers.

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

If the person has another meal after 5 pm, the glucose level in the blood will increase, and the insulin level too.

Several hours after the meal, the glucose levels will decrease, and the glucagon levels will increase.

Explanation:

When a person ingests another meal after 5 p.m, the glucose levels in the blood will increase, as the body does not need all that glucose right now the insulin levels in the blood will increase to store glucose for later. The glucagon levels after a meal are very low because the aim is to store glucose not use it.

Several hours after the meal, the body needs the energy to keep operating so it will use the glucose that was stored, to do this, the levels of glucagon in blood have to increase and release the glucose, and the levels of insulin in blood have to decrease.
