A couch potato eats lots of pizza, chips, and hamburgers and never exercises, and develops arteriosclerosis, which includes hard

ening of the arteries. If he were to exercise, how would his exercising blood pressure compare to that of a healthy person? How would his or her exercising total peripheral resistance compare to that of a healthy person? Explain your answers.

Answer:

The exercising blood pressure of the couch potato would be greater in comparison to that of a healthy individual because in the case of a couch potato the arterial walls are declining in radius. Due to this, there is a greater peripheral resistance because of the small radius and corresponding resistance to the flow of blood.  

A healthy individual presumably does not possess an identical accumulation of plaque as the couch potato does. Thus, their blood vessel is larger, resulting in less peripheral resistance and less resistance to the flow of blood.

Which of the following is a characteristic of the tidal region of an ocean
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
The defining characteristic of the intertidal zone is that it is submerged with water during high tide and exposed to the air during low tide. The zone can take many forms, from sandy beaches to rocky cliffs. It is common for the intertidal zone to change frequently, since it is constantly battered by crashing waves.

In order for evolution to occur, what must happen in a population?
kozerog [31]
For evolution to occur: There must be genetic variation in a population. This provides variation on which natural selection can act. Then natural selection can act by selecting those species which are better adapted to the environmental conditions. Over time those animals that are best suited to the environment only will survive and reproduce. Those organisms successful genes will be preserved and eventually the gene frequency in the population will change, changing the overall characteristics of a population. This is how evolution occurs.
