Answer:

obesity increases blood pressure

Explanation:

This is because the high fat percentage in the body has lead to a build up of fat on the inside of arteries and this makes them thinner. the heart has to pump harder to get the blood around the body and through these, now smaller arteries. therefore yes having diabetes does increase blood pressure.

other factors which increase blood pressure are high stress levels, smoking, anxiety.

How would a muscle injury surrounding a broken vessel effect hemostasis?
8_murik_8 [283]
Hemostasis is the process by which bleeding is stopped, that is, a process by which the blood is kept back in the broken blood vessel. It is the first stage in the wound healing process. 
During hemostasis, three rapid steps occur simultaneously. In the first step, the blood vessel constrict in order to reduce the quantity of blood that is flowing out, secondly, platelets stick together in order to form a temporary seal which covers the break and thirdly blood clottings formed by adding fibrin threads which serves as molecular glue on the surface of the wound.

Darnell is planning to rent a booth at a trade show specifically for veterinarians. Darnell’s company offers benefits like disco
Alik [6]

The number attendees that would most likely be interested in Darnell's booth is : ( A ) 1 : 3

Aim : The question is all about the ratio of self employed vet at the trade show to the total number of Vets  at the trade show

<u><em>Assuming </em></u>

Number of self employed veterinarians = 20

Number of Veterinarians = 60

<h3>Determine the number of self employed vet that are interested in Darnell's booth </h3>

Total number of Vet = 60

number of self employed Vet = 20

= number of self employed / Total number of Vet

= 20 / 60

= 1 : 3  

Hence we can conclude that The number attendees that would most likely be interested in Darnell's booth is : ( A ) 1 : 3

xxMikexx [17]

The correct answer is:

A. Will have a intermediate trait 3. Glucose aversion is a genetically-determined incompletely dominant trait

B. Will refuse glucose 2. Glucose aversion is a genetically-determined dominant trait

C. Have a mix of traits depending on experience 4. Glucose aversion is a learned behavior

D. Will accept glucose 1. Glucose aversion is a genetically-determined recessive trait

If we put it simple and say that for example glucose aversion is genetically determinated, with the genotype AA and eating glucose with the genotype aa. The offspring will have Aa genotype (heterozygous). Depending on which phenotype is expressed in heterozygous we can conclude whether the trait is dominant or recessive or due to earned behavior.
