What general part of the general circulation would you find the "doldrums"?

1 answer:

3 0

I think the Belt of the inter-tropical convergence zone is the general part of the general circulation found on the doldrums. This is a belt of low pressure which circles the Earth generally near the equator where the trade winds of the Northern and southern Hemispheres converge. Mainly characterized by convective activity which generates often vigorous thunderstorms over large areas.

Answer:

Type 2 diabetes - target cell do not respond normally to insulin

Type 1 diabetes - no insulin is produced

Both type 2 and type 1 diabetes - Glucose level remains higher than normal

Explanation:

complete question

statements are

1. target cell do not respond normally to insulin

2. no insulin is produced

3. Glucose level remains higher than normal

Solution

Type 1 and 2 diabetes is different in the following ways

1. Type 1 diabetes is a type of auto immune disease in which the causative agent of disease attacks on the cells responsible for defending that disease. Hence, in case of diabetes 1, pancreas is restricted from producing insulin. While in case of diabetes 2, there is enough insulin but body gets resistant to it.

2. Type 1 diabetes usually occur in children and Type 2 diabetes occur after the age of 40 or in adulthood.

3. Sugar level is high in case of both the diabetets types. In type 1 sugar build because no insulin is produced and in type 2 sugar increases because of bodies getting resistant to insulin.

Hence, the correct match is

Type 2 diabetes - target cell do not respond normally to insulin

Type 1 diabetes - no insulin is produced

Both type 2 and type 1 diabetes - Glucose level remains higher than normal

As sea levels rise, which of the following will affect marine biodiversity?

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Underwater plants will receive less light.

Explanation:

When sea level rises the amount of solar energy in the aquatic environment is decreased and this makes underwater plants receive less light and their development is impaired. This is because, with less sunlight, aquatic plants are unable to photosynthesize and absorb the carbon needed for their metabolism, thus end up dying and diminishing the plant diversity of the sub-aquatic environment.

In addition, many underwater organisms (such as some fish) feed exclusively on these plants. If these plants fail to grow, these fish will be without food and will eventually die; This will also cause problems for the diversity of the underwater environment.
