In contrast, the ICF has elevated amounts of potassium, phosphate, magnesium, and protein.

<h3>What is the most common cation found in the interstitial fluid?</h3>

The primary cation in the interstitial fluid is sodium. The major anion present here is chloride. The major cation in intracellular fluid is potassium. These electrolytes play an important role in maintaining homeostasis.
The ECF consists of plasma and interstitial fluid (IF), the fluid in the spaces between tissue cells. The most abundant cation (or positively charged ion) in the extracellular fluid (ECF) is sodium (Na+). The most abundant anion (or negatively charged ion) in the ECF is chloride (Cl-).
plasma that escapes is called interstitial or extracellular fluid, and it contains oxygen, glucose, amino acids, and other nutrients needed by tissue cells. Although most of this fluid seeps immediately back into the bloodstream, a percentage of it, along with the particulate matter, is left behind.
Interstitial fluid consists of a water solvent containing sugars, salts, fatty acids, amino acids, coenzymes, hormones, neurotransmitters, white blood cells and cell waste-products. This solution accounts for 26% of the water in the human body.

Pat needs to determine the height of a tree before cutting it down to be sure that it will not fall on a nearby fence. the angle

Mekhanik [1.2K]

The height of the tree, which Pat needs to determine, before cutting it down to be sure that it will not fall on a nearby fence is 111 ft.

<h3>What is right angle triangle property?</h3>

In a right angle triangle, the ratio of the opposite side to the base side is equal to the tangent angle between them.

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{b}{a}$

Here, (b) is the opposite side, (a) is the base side.

Pat needs to determine the height of a tree before cutting it down to be sure that it will not fall on a nearby fence.

The angle of elevation of the tree from one position on a flat path from the tree is

$H=40^o$

From a second position,

$I=60\rm\; ft$

Farther along this path it is,

$b=30^o$

Let the distance between tree and first position is x. Thus, from the trigonometry,

$\tan 40=\dfrac{h}{x}\\h=x\tan 40$ ....1

The distance between tree and second position is (x+60) ft. Thus, again from the trigonometry,

$\tan 30=\dfrac{h}{x+60}\\h=(x+60)\tan 40$ ......2

Compare the equation 1 and 2,

$x\tan (40)=(x+60)\tan 30\\0.839x=0.577x+34.64\\0.839x-0.577x=34.64\\x=\dfrac{34.64}{0.262}\\x=132.25\rm\; ft$

Put this value in equation 1 as,

$h=(132.25)\times \tan40\\h\approx111\rm\;ft$

Thus, the height of the tree, which Pat needs to determine, before cutting it down to be sure that it will not fall on a nearby fence is 111 ft.

Grants of money by government to support a person or group are called protectionism.

OLEGan [10]

he survey found these prominent economists all strongly in favor of the U.S. government spends billions of dollars annually in foreign aid to developing countries. Protectionism benefits a relatively small group of special interests. The political pressures to grant monopolistic privileges are so strong.

A technology store sells tablets and

IRINA_888 [86]

The combination that could be the total sales would be 360 tablets and 180 computers.

<h3>Total sales</h3>

Over 300 total sales were made in January

100 tablets and 20 computers were sold in February.

This means that total sales would be: (300+) 100 + 20 = 420+

Only options B and C have 420+ total sales.

But, there are more tablet sales than computers.

Thus, we are left with only option B
