Answer and Explanation:
- Where (quadrant, etc.) will the doctor palpate Juan's abdomen?
<em>Under normal conditions in general the spleen can not be palped because of its reduced size. But when it is enlarged it might be easily touched. The spleen is located under the thoracic cage (rib cage) on the left side, between the 8th and 11th ribs. This would correspond to the left superior quadrant (left hemi-belly).</em>
- What other organs might be compressed by Juan's enlarged spleen?
<em>The enlargement of the spleen and the liver inflammation are symptoms of the mono disease. This enlargement might affect some neighboring organs such as the stomach, which might be displaced and compressed. </em>
- why is Juan's spleen enlarged and not his stomach or kidney?
<em>The spleen is part of the immunological system and helps the body to fight infections and filter old bloody cells taking them out of the blood current. This organ might get enlarged because blood cells accumulate in its interior. Red blood cells are excessively stored in the spleen, resulting in anemia. The more cells the spleen retains, the larger it becomes, and hence, the more blood cells it retains and destroys. If the spleen is unproperly working, it kills too many red blood cells and accumulates many others.</em>
The Stomach and kidney are not part of the immunity system and they do not filter blood cells, so they do not seem to be affected by their accumulation.
Answer:
All plants remain rigid because of cell walls.
Explanation:
Herbivores are those animals that feed only on plants. Herbivores are food for carnivores, which feed on other animals. If a particular herbivore is over hunted by man, the particular carnivore that feed on that over hunted herbivore will be affected, because its source of food has been wiped out. Thus, it will have one less choice when it comes to food and it will have to concentrate on other type of herbivore as source of food. Thus, other herbivores in that particular ecosystem will be affected too.

Explanation:
Answer:
Null hypothesis: the behavior of mosquito larvae doesn't change in the presence/absence of predators added to the tanks in Treatments 2 and 3.
Explanation:
In statistics, the null hypothesis states that there are no differences between the two variables tested in the experiment, while the alternative hypothesis uses the experimental data in order to reject the null hypothesis. In this case, the alternative hypothesis will use the data from treatments 2 and 3 to confirm that predators can modify the behavior of mosquito larvae.
