The nursing instructor is teaching a pre-nursing pathophysiology class. the class is covering the respiratory system. the instru

ctor explains that the respiratory system is comprised of both the upper and lower respiratory system. the nose is part of the upper respiratory system. the instructor continues to explain that the nasal cavities have a vascular and ciliated mucous lining. what is the purpose of the vascular and ciliated mucous lining of the nasal cavities?

Darwin’s research showed that finches beaks are different to fit their food source. It also started the theories of evolution and natural selection. The Grant’s research on the Galapagos Islands showed that evolution exists and can happen over a course of two years. They proved Darwin’s theories are true. Since all the plants and animals are native to the islands, they had to adapt to the new food source and climate. Beaks, size, etc. are all changes made to these organisms to be able to live on the islands. 

The Galapagos Islands are located in Ecuador and sit on the Pacific Ocean. <span>The Galapagos Islands were formed from 3 million to 5 million years ago. Volcanic eruptions typically shield volcanoes formed the islands. They are located over a “particularly hot mantel” that causes volcanic activity. The outcome of many eruptions were islands because the left overs were pushed to the surface. The Galapagos islands are pretty big reaching an area of 3,093 miles. The temperatures range from 69 to 84 degrees creating a typically warm climate. </span>

Darwin studied medicine at age 16, but became fascinated specimens around the globe. He developed theories of natural selection and evolution. While he was on the Galapagos islands, he studied thirteen different species of finches.

 He observed finches and different beak structures. He observed their ability to consume foods such as nuts, bugs, and fruit. He concluded all were related to their beaks. For example, long, slender beaks are good to reach in the flowers of a cactus.

<span>Charles concluded that the finches beaks are examples of adaptive radiation. To fit in the island, they had to adapt to the conditions. This lead to Charles’ theory of natural selection. </span>

Charles came to the conclusion of evolution and natural selection. Natural selection is the process where organisms adapt to their environment to survive and produce more offspring. Evolution is where different kinds of living organisms are thought to have developed. These theories have changed science forever and leave today’s scientists marveling of his theories.

I hope this helps:)

Reptile [31]

Answer:

1. Initial air temperature: 0 °C (32 °F)

2. Initial body temperature: 37 °C (99 °F)

3. The expected effect of different factors on body temperature are:

   A. Raising air temperature: Increase

   B. Lowering air temperature: Decrease

   C. Adding clothing: Increase

   D. Exercising: Increase

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, it is necessary to look for a software related to this homework.

<u>Homeostasis is a property of organisms that consists in their capacity to maintain a stable internal condition by compensating for changes in their environment</u> through the regulated exchange of matter and energy with the exterior. It is a a dynamic equilibrium controlled by a mechanism of feedback that constitute the self-regulating mechanisms. Examples of homeostasis are temperature regulation and the balance between acidity and alkalinity (pH)

The Human Homeostasis Gizmo™ is a software that allows you to explore  how the human body stays at a nearly constant  temperature in different conditions.  To use it, you have to set the air temperature at 0 °C (32 °F) and the body temperature at 37 °C (99 °F), and click Play. After a simulation of 1 hour, then click Pause and gather the information. Then, do the same cprocedure  to test the effect of other factors and Click Reset between each trial. To determine the effect of different factors on body temperature, you have to compare the  final body temperature to the final body temperature while  there is no specific movement or change.

Then:

1. Initial air temperature: 0 °C (32 °F)

2. Initial body temperature: 37 °C (99 °F)

3. The expected effect of different factors on body temperature are:

   A. Raising air temperature: Increase

   B. Lowering air temperature: Decrease

   C. Adding clothing: Increase

   D. Exercising: Increase

This is for a logical reason, anything you do to heat it or generate heat, will increase the temperature. And anything you do to generate cold, will lower the temperature.

The effect of different factors on body temperature according to Gizmo:

   A. Raising air temperature: Increase

   B. Lowering air temperature: Decrease

   C. Click Add to a sweatshirt, hat, pants, and  parka. Then, adding clothing:

   Maintained

   D. Set the Exercise level to 70%, then exercising: Increase

When the temperature increases, it is because you are able to record the results from the software and you see temperature goes from 99 °F to 100 °F. When the temperature decreases. it is because it goes from 99 °F to 97 °F. When it is maintained, there is no change.
