Utah has a large wetland connected to the Great Salt Lake. There are a wide variety of animals and plants that can survive in these wetlands. Looking at this energy pyramid, what would happen to the population of primary consumers if 90% of the the secondary
consumers died off due to a disease?
A)
the population would remain unchanged
B)
the population would grow due to being fewer predators
the population would decrease because of more predators
D)
the population would move to another habitat due to lack of food and
resources

b. lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere   is the answer most likely

it has to be understood that the sea water contains a huge amount of sodium and chlorine ions and if they enter the cell of the atlantic cod fish, the cell will shrivel and the fish will die. to avoid such a condition, the fish uses active transport for the purpose of removing the ions against the gradient.

explanation:

the atlantic cod is not a maritime osmoconformer. its native application of salts is less than that of the seawater it lives in. it is continually falling water from the gills to the ocean via osmosis.

countering that, the fish is going to be swallowing seawater. but since its internal collection of salts is lower than seawater, the fish will want to go free of excess salt, and since that's going upon a gradient, then active transport, requiring energy, must be used to pump out the salt. much marine fish use the organs to filter out the salt and these fish discharge very straight urine.
