Introduction:
The environment being dynamic in nature keeps on fluctuating. This imposes an impact on the internal environment of the organisms. The enzymes carry out various physiological functions, which require an optimum temperature to depict their activity. Somehow, the physiological functions do not get disrupted during long-term changes in the environment, which is known as acclimatization.

- A characteristic of the open-loop system is that it does not use feedback to determine if its output has achieved the desired goal of the input. This means that the system does not observe the output of the processes that it is controlling. Closed-loop systems employ feedback and a reference of correctness. Deviations from the norm are detected and corrections made in order to maintain a desired output. 3) The image shown above is the Carbon cycle. What kind of system is the Carbon cycle? A) open-loop system B) closed-loop system C) unregulated system D) unchecked feedback system not gradedarrow_forwardWhen hunting disrupts balance in the food chain by removing all owls, there will be no predators on snakes, leading to their increase in numbers. Considering the scenario where the number of lost owls (4) is replaced by snakes, compute for energy units following the table in no. 1 (Sun + E = 6) and answer the following questions: In comparison with the natural food chain, which component received less energy in this unbalanced food chain? What is the reason for the above? What might be the consequences of the above? What is needed to recover balance in the food chain? How can this be achieved in this specific situation?arrow_forwardHow can we conduct an experiemnt in peas to support a hypothesis about the relationship between temperature and the rate of cellular respiration? what can we expect about the results?arrow_forward
