In excreted urine, a reliable "marker" that a pregnancy has initiated is human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG).

<h3>What is human chorionic gonadotropin?</h3>
  • The trophoblast cells that surround a developing embryo.
  • Eventually give rise to the placenta after implantation generate the hormone known as human chorionic gonadotropin, which helps women recognize pregnancy.
  • Some pregnancy tests can detect the HCG's presence.
  • The placenta secretes a hormone known as human chorionic gonadotropin throughout pregnancy (HCG).
  • It tells the body to stop menstruation and makes the uterine lining thicker to support an embryo in development.
  • After fertilization, HCG levels increase and stay elevated for another 10 weeks or more of pregnancy.
  • As accurate as blood tests are urine testing.
  • An individual is pregnant if their HCG level is high.
  • An individual is not pregnant if a qualitative HCG test is negative.
  • After a few days, a person should repeat the test if they still believe they are pregnant.

Why is adequate lighting necessary in a balanced aquarium?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

A. Fish need light to see their food

Explanation:

B is incorrect because fish take in oxygen constantly to respirate. If they only took in oxygen when it was dark they would die.

C is incorrect because expelling CO2 is also a constant process as a part of the reactions that take part inside living organisms, so it happens constantly (a bit like B)

D is incorrect because plants need light for food (photosynthesis) and would most likely die or have stunted growth if left in the dark.

A is correct because when it is dark, fish rely on other senses to find food as most fish cannot see as well in the dark, therefore when they have light they can see their food more easily.

Hope this helped!

Yuki888 [10]

The answer is stroke. This means that formation of plaque in the blood vessels that serve the brain cause thickenning of the inner walls of the vessels. When the plaque ruptures, a blood clot forms and blocks blood passage to a particular region of the brain served by the vessel. This stifles oxygen supply to the respective part of the brain leading to the death of the cells in the region.
