Microwaves excite water molecules, causingthem to vibrate and generate thermal energy. Humans are 70% water, our brain, 85%. They simply use your water in fat and other tissues (Every single cell in a living organism needs water) and make it heat up ridiculously fast.

What are some consumers in the freshwater ecosystem?
consumers are organisms that eat other organisms. Depends on what level consumer it is ;).
Which organisms are the first level consumers at hydrothermal vents?
Shrimp, Giant clams, and Tube worms
What are the level of danger radio waves pose to living organisms?
The answer, most of the time, is zero.Radio waves are not 'ionising radiation' which could be dangerous at fairly low power levels.Radio waves in general pass through living things, with only a very small percentage of the energy being absorbed. The few transmitters which are powerful enough to be dangerous are surrounded by security fences to keep people at a safe dictance.There is a frequency in the low microwave region (just above 2GHz) which is strongly absorbed by molecules of water. This frequency can be produced in dangerous quantities by specially built magnetrons, and anything containing water can be boiled after a fairly brief exposure to the output from one of these. There are lots of these about, all safely shut up inside microwave ovens.
What are the first level consumers in the amazon rainforest?
examples of third level consumers living in the rainforest are jaguars, large snakes like anacondas, and sometimes even alligators or crocodiles.
Can a second level consumer also be a first level consumer?
yes, organisms such as Euglena, zooxanthellae and pitcher plants have qualities that allow them to produce energy via sun, glycolosis, Krebs cycle, electron chain transport while they also consume other organisms.
What is the level of danger gamma rays poses to living organisms?
The level is higher than most people.
Are X-rays deadly?
Yes living x-rays are a danger to living organisms. x-rays cause ion pairs the damage molecular pairs
What is the highest level of organization of living things?
Organisms
Which level of organisms includes living and nonliving things?
Ecosystem
What Level of danger do gamma rays pose to living organisms?
The biggest problem is sterilization and the prevention of cell division. The body will quit healing and fall apart due to the lack of repairs from day to day wear and tear.
The broadest level of organization of living things?
Kingdom: The highest level of biological classification.
What is the function of organic molecules in unicellular organisms?
Organic molecules are the part of life we are living in earth... it is common for all level of organisms on earth.
What substances keep the pH level in living organisms more or less constant?
buffers :D
How do melting glaciers affect a region?
Melting glaciers can be a danger to society. The melting of glaciers means that the sea level would rise. This could put some current sea-level cities underwater, causing damages and forcing people to find higher ground.
What provides the under story in the kelp forest?
Kelp forest uderstory:What living thing is dependent on the kelp at this level?How may these living organisms help other living thing survive?
What is the energy level of microwaves?
it can go to about 1-100 wats of power
How do interactions at the atomic level help us to understand the observable properties of organisms and non living matter?
Interactions at the atomic level determine the arrangement of atoms and molecules, which influences the chemical and physical properties of matter. In organisms, these interactions are responsible for the structures and functions of biological molecules like proteins and DNA. In non-living matter, atomic interactions determine characteristics such as melting point, conductivity, and strength. By understanding these atomic interactions, we can explain the observable properties of both living organisms and non-living matter.
