The recommended dietary allows differs with age, sex, and health status. Leen is an healthy female adult so the RDA should be 15 mg so if she has consumed 6 mg the percentage is 6/15*100 = 40%

Answer: If Leena is taking 4 tablespoon of peanuts that means her age is above 15 years and the recommended daily allowance (RDA) given by the National Institute Of Health (NIH),for an adult female is 15 mg of vitamin E a day.

If 4 tablespoon of peanut butter contains 6 mg of Vitamin E then she consumed:

                               6/15*100=40%

Hence, from this solution we can conclude that she took 40% of vitamin E according to the RDA.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

This is due to the event of Speciation that happened for the rodents in Island B but not for the rodents in Island C.

Explanation:

  • Due to splitting of the population,
  • The sub-population of rodents formed in Island B are B1 and B2.
  • The sub-population of rodents formed in Island C are C1 and C2.
  • In case of Island B, each of the B1 and B2 sub-populations that got split from each other developed certain mutations that were necessary for them to adapt to the particular diverse environment each of them were exposed to, through the period of 50,000 years. These mutations were so varied that reproductive isolation was generated between them that resulted in each of them to develop into different species.Hence, speciation happens here and B1 and B2 are incapable of inter-breeding.
  • In case of Island C, each of the C1 and C2 sub-populations that got split might have got exposed to similar environmental change or no environmental change or the environmental change might have been too small to cause drastic change in each of the sub-populations. As a result of this the two sub-populations might have acquired certain mutations to adapt to the environment each of them were exposed to, through a period of 100,000 years. These mutations might not have been too variable or contrasting to cause reproductive isolation between C1 and C2. Hence, no new speciation happens here and C1 and C2 are capable of inter-breeding.

Whether there is a net flow of fluid into or out of a capillary at a given spot along its length depends on _____.whether or not
castortr0y [4]

Answer: Depends on the balance between blood pressure and osmotic pressure.

Explanation:

The capillaries are part of the microcirculation that transports nutrients to the tissues and removes cell excreta. The walls of the capillaries are extremely thin, constructed of single - layer, highly permeable endothelial cells. Therefore, water, cell nutrients and cell excreta can all interchange quickly and easily between the tissues and the circulating blood.

The tissues of the body is made up of soo many capillaries which helps to deliver blood and it's contents to it. The hydrostatic pressure in the capillaries tends to force fluid and it's dissolved substances through the capillary pores into the interstitial spaces. Conversely, osmotic pressure caused by the plasma proteins( called COLLOID OSMOTIC PRESSURE) tends to cause fluid movement by osmosis from the interstitial spaces into the blood. This osmotic pressure excreted by the plasma proteins normally prevents significant loss of fluid volume from the blood into the interstitial spaces.

Therefore, a balance between hydrostatic pressure in the capillaries which is influenced by blood pressure and osmotic pressure in order for a net flow of fluid into or out of a capillary to occur.
