    This document contains questions about various biology topics including: 1) The endocrine system and the roles of hormones in growth, urine production, and blood sugar regulation. It also asks about the involvement of endocrine glands in gamete production. 2) Ecosystem interactions between biotic and abiotic factors, including the differences between intra- and interspecific competition, as well as predator-prey relationships in rice paddies. 3) Digestion and the release and action of digestive enzymes from the walls of the duodenum and jejunum, including how enzymes act as locks and keys. It also discusses small intestine structures that absorb nutrients. 4) Genetic disorders like Down
