Some micronutrients, such as vitamins e and c, can function as antioxidants in that they are able to neutralize free radicals. Radical are highly unstable molecules produced in our body when we are exposed to toxins. Vitamins C and E, carotenoids (including beta-carotene), and the mineral selenium are all powerful antioxidants found in food.

Three factors that may have caused thirteen different species of finches to develop on the galapagos island

Oduvanchick [21]

From this one migrant species would come many -- at least 13 species of finch evolving from the single ancestor.
This process in which one species gives rise to multiple species that exploit different niches is called adaptive radiation. The ecological niches exert the selection pressures that push the populations in various directions. On various islands, finch species have become adapted for different diets: seeds, insects, flowers, the blood of seabirds, and leaves.
The ancestral finch was a ground-dwelling, seed-eating finch. After the burst of speciation in the Galapagos, a total of 14 species would exist: three species of ground-dwelling seed-eaters; three others living on cactuses and eating seeds; one living in trees and eating seeds; and 7 species of tree-dwelling insect-eaters.
Scientists long after Darwin spent years trying to understand the process that had created so many types of finches that differed mainly in the size and shape of their beaks.

A wave has a wavelength of 5 and a frequency of 100hz. what is it's velocity?

ale4655 [162]

Answer: 500 velocity

Explanation: Wave velocity (m/s) =Wavelength (m) * Frequency (Hz) Example calculation. I found this by using calculation of wavelength times frequency and the answer will be your velocity.

Please place the following vessels in the correct order to represent the arterial circulation leading up to the glomerulus.

Ymorist [56]

The following vessels are connected as below:

aorta ->renal arteries ->segmental arteries ->interlobular arteries ->arcuate arteries ->cortical radiata ->afferent arteries ->glomerulus.

1) aorta : arises from heart which carry blood from heart to the rest of the body

2) renal artery :it arises from the aorta which carry blood to kidney .it carry unfiltered blood .

3)segmental arteries : it arises from renal artery .it has 5 branches or segments.

4)interlobular arteries : it arises from segmental arteries. the interlobular arteries pass directly outward between the medullary rays to reach the fibrous tunic ,where they end in the capillary network of this part.

5)Arcuate arteries: it arises from interlobular arteries .it is also known as arciform arteries, are vessels of the renal circulation. they are located at the border of the renal cortex and renal medulla.

6) cortical radiata: it arises from arcuate arteries.

7) afferent arteries: it arises from interlobular arteries and also connects to glomerulus. they are a group of blood vessels that supply the nephrons in many excretory systems .they play a important role in regulation of blood vessels.

8) glomerulus : it connects from afferent arteries.it is the filtering unit of kidney ,is a specialised bundle of capillaries that are uniquely situated between two resistance vessels.
