ACE stands for angiotensin converting enzyme. Enalapril is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and congestive heart failure. Enalapril is also used to treat a disorder of the ventricles (the lower chambers of the heart that allow blood to flow out of the heart). This disorder can decrease the heart's ability to pump blood to the body. Enalapril may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
The Flow of Energy Through Plants and Animals. The energy flow through living organisms starts with sunlight and photosynthesis, then travels through the food chain in bite sized chunks. Primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and decomposers are all part of the food chain. Written by David Watson.
The major energy flow in plants is that the roots are south-seeking, going down into the earth, and the top of the plant is north-seeking, pointing to the sky. The two energy flows go out from the base of the plant, level with the ground. But actually, energy flows both ways in the roots of the plant. The plant sends the roots deep down into the earth for one purposeâto bring up water and nutrients from the earth to nourish itself.
