PLEASE HELP Red blood cells transport oxygen to every cell in the body. This oxygen is needed to release energy stored in glucose molecules. Red blood cells also transport carbon dioxide, a waste product produced by cells, back to the lungs where it is exhaled. When a person exercises, his or her muscle cells consume more oxygen and produce more carbon dioxide. The body responds by increasing its breathing rate and heart rate to supply more oxygen-rich blood to the muscles and carry away more wastes. Explain how this is an example of maintaining homeostasis.

Sea levels are rising due to climate change while increasing numbers of people are moving into coastal areas. to accommodate more people, there has been increased construction of beachfront resorts and condominiums. how is this impacting sea turtle numbers and biodiversity and why? a. the increased human population in coastal areas has meant that more food is available to the turtles (e.g., dropped food, waste from restaurants), which has led to an increase in the numbers and diversity of sea turtles. b. there has been very little change in the numbers and biodiversity of sea turtles because the planet is so vast that they can simply relocate to less crowded beaches. c. this has resulted in a decrease in numbers and diversity of sea turtles because it is restricting available nesting sites, and hence reproduction. d. this has resulted in an increase in numbers and diversity of sea turtles because people are around to protect them from natural predators.
