a) The following account was written by a confused student.
Rewrite the paragraphs with the mistakes corrected:
"Shortly after a heavy meal, glucose is absorbed from the large intestine, and its concentration in the blood cells goes up. This
rise is detected by the liver, which releases the hormone
insulin into the blood. Insulin makes the pancreas remove the extra glucose from the blood and store it as starch.
Later on, the concentration of glucose in the blood drops. The liver breaks down fat so that it goes up again.
(b) Explain why, some time after the meal, the blood glucose
concentration falls below its correct level.
Following a heavy meal, the small intestine absorbs glucose into the blood, and the rise is detected by the pancreas, which releases insulin. The liver absorbs glucose as a result of the action of this hormone, and the blood glucose level falls.
What is the role of insulin?Insulin aids the body in glucose regulation. The correct paragraph is as below. "Shortly after a heavy meal, glucose is absorbed from the small intestine, and its concentration in the blood cells goes up. This rise is detected by the pancreas, which releases the hormone insulin into the blood. Insulin makes the liver take the extra glucose from the blood and store it as glycogen. Later on, the concentration of glucose in the blood drops. The liver breaks down glycogen so that it goes up again. After a while, the majority of glucose from the meal is stored as glycogen in the liver, resulting in less free glucose in the blood as the level drops".
Hence, insulin regulates the blood glucose level by decresing the level and storing it in muscle and liver cell.

The sedimentary rock layers are being weathered and eroded at different rates because the rock layers:
Explanation:
Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the accumulation or deposition of mineral or organic particles at the Earth's surface, followed by cementation. Sedimentation is the collective name for processes that cause these particles to settle in place. The particles that form a sedimentary rock are called sediment, and may be composed of geological detritus (minerals) or biological detritus (organic matter). The geological detritus originated from weathering and erosion of existing rocks, or from the solidification of molten lava blobs erupted by volcanoes. The geological detritus is transported to the place of deposition by water, wind, ice or mass movement, which are called agents of denudation. Biological detritus was formed by bodies and parts (mainly shells) of dead aquatic organisms, as well as their fecal mass, suspended in water and slowly piling up on the floor of water bodies (marine snow). Sedimentation may also occur as dissolved minerals precipitate from water solution.

If you assume that the high projection is correct, what is one way the larger
human population can ensure it has enough food?
The one way the larger human population can ensure it has enough food is by finding more efficient ways of growing crops. Therefore, the correct option is option B.
What is population?The term "population" is frequently used to describe the total number of people living in a particular location. To estimate the number of the residents within a certain territory, governments conduct censuses. The phrase has particular use in the domains of ecology and genetics and is also used to refer to plants, animals, and microbes.
An region with a sexual populace is one in which interbreeding between any two individuals therein is both conceivable and more likely than cross-breeding between individuals from other places. The one way the larger human population can ensure it has enough food is by finding more efficient ways of growing crops.
Therefore, the correct option is option B.

frequency of this wave?
Given that,
The speed of a wave, v = 200 m/s
Wavelength, [tex]\lambda=2\ m[/tex]
We need to find the frequency of this wave. The relation between wavelength, frequency and the speed is given by :
[tex]v=f\lambda\\\\f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{200\ m/s}{2\ m}\\\\f=100\ Hz[/tex]
So, the frequency of this wave is 100 Hz.

_______ inputs to the system come from weathering of rocks, from windblown dust, and from precipitation, which can carry material great distances.
Answer:
Nutrient
Explanation:
Ecology can be defined as the scientific study of the relationship between living organisms such as plants and animals in relation to their physical and biological environment.
Nutrient inputs to the system come from weathering of rocks, from windblown dust, and from precipitation, which can carry material great distances. Various amount of nutrients are transported or transfered from terrestrial ecosystems through erosion and then deposited in aquatic ecosystems such as oceans, seas, and associated lowlands.
Erosion can be defined as a geological process which typically involves the wearing out of earthen (soil) materials and the transportation of these materials by natural forces like water, wind, etc. Soil erosion is greatest when the soil is steep.
Weathering can be defined as the physical and chemical breakdown of rock into smaller pieces called sediment. Weathering can be classified into two categories namely;
I. Physical weathering : it is the process of breaking rocks into pieces without affecting its chemical composition e.g temperature, abrasion and frost action.
II. Chemical weathering : it is the process of breaking rocks into pieces by chemical action which leads to changes in its chemical composition e.g carbonation, hydration, plant acid and oxidation.
