The ability of metabolically active tissue (e.g. muscle) to change energy sources from fat to carbohydrates (and vice versa) is termed: Metabolic flexibility.

Explanation:

The human body primarily uses two sources of energy, glucose and fat. Glucose is found in the bloodstream and stored as glycogen in muscles and the liver, and fat in adipose tissue and in fatty acids. Metabolic flexibility is the ability of the body to alternate between the different energy substrates according to the circumstances of each moment. People with good metabolic flexibility will find it easier to use body fat and perform better physically. At lower intensity during exercise, more fat is consumed and at higher intensity, more glucose. If that high intensity is maintained, glycogen stores will be depleted. So then, how much energy is stored, how much is needed and how it will be delivered, is part of the reading that our body performs. This cellular adaptation to the requirements is known as metabolic flexibility.

the real answer is b. scintillation counter

the two answers are a, the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island, and c, the trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection. the reason for that is because if the birds that have beaks developed for eating small seeds lose all of their food, they will go hungry and eventually starve because they physically cannot eat the large seeds, therefore making the population of large beaked birds higher. also, if the trait of large beaks are dominant on the island over small beaks, then over time the large beaked birds will reproduce more and more, while the smaller beaked birds will reproduce less and less because they can't survive with the food provided. that leads to the trait of small beaks disappearing and the trait of large beaks taking over the island.
