How long does it take to bleed out from a stab wound?.

Biology
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]2 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Consider a stab wound in upper abdomen which has pierced through upper/ventral wall of stomach. This is what medically called as gastric perforation and requires emergency surgical management within 4 to 12 hours of injury. If left unattended the person will develope distension of abdomen with vomitting within 4 to 6 hrs, fever within 12 hrs, all because of infection spreading to rest of abdomen ( medically called Peritonitis). If no surgery is undertaken the person will die due to sepsis within 24 to 48 hrs.

Situation 2: stab would injuring major vessel or even liver will pool blood in abdomen ( medically Hemoperitonium) will further worsen the situation and wld need more intensive management. If not treated properly such person can die within 6 to 12 hrs due to hypovoluemic shock.

Conservation efforts have preserved most of the bison’s original genetic diversity
kirza4 [7]
True , conservation efforts have, they did this by gently helping the bison.



 with the bison we have an specifically  diverse animal , this means that preserving the genetics should be easy.

but it gets harder because of the world around it changing. this means that it has to adapt to a lot of things.

Which answer best defines what the Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model mathematically describes?-The competition among many preda
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The simultaneous effect of a predator population on a prey population and a prey population on a predator population over time.

Explanation:  

The mathematical models of Lotka-Volterra equations explain the existing interaction between species in which prey and predator influence and affect each other. The model follows a few assumptions,    

  • The ecosystem is isolated and closed. There is no migration.
  • The whole individuals are reproductively equivalent.
  • In the absence of the predator, prey shows an exponential growth rate. The prey is in the ideal environment.  
  • When there is no prey, the predator population decreases exponentially because of the lack of food. The predator environment is ideal, but it is limited by prey density.  
  • The predation rate is proportional to the encounters rate, which also depends on density.  
  • The predators affect the prey populations, inducing its decrease proportionally to the number of prey and predators present.  
  • The prey population also influences the predator population proportionally to the number of encounters between the two species.  

In these equations, the variable D is the number of predators, and P the number of prey items.

The parameters are always constant:  

• r1: prey growth rate.  

• a1: predator hunting success.  

• r2: predator growth rate.  

• a2: the success of the predator in hunting and feeding.

In nature, many factors affect interactions, such as dense-dependent factors and dense-independent factors. Also, in reality, there are stochastic factors. Stochasticity refers to the variability in the system involving those factors that are affecting or influencing population growth. Stochasticity might be related to good years and bad years for population growth.

In real situations, the compliance of the whole assumption does not occur. The previously mentioned constants might vary, constantly changing the interaction between the predator and the prey. These parameters change in different degrees, resulting in varying circumstances for both species.

Describe the relationship<br> between variations and<br> adaptations?
laila [671]
Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that make an organism better suited to its environment. Heritable variation comes from random mutations. Random mutations are the initial cause of new heritable traits. For example, a rabbit can't choose to have a different fur color.
