If this blood cell count is significantly higher then these values, and remains there or continues to rise, over a given period of time, accompanied with some specific symptoms, then polycythemia is suspected.

trasher [3.6K]

Answer: The motion is accelerated.


Step-by-step explanation: Given that the horse is walking along a straight line.

The horse travels 3 m in first second, so its speed is 3m/s.

In the next second, the horse travels 4 m, so its speed is 4 m/s.

In the third second, the horse travels 5 m, so its speed is 5 m/s.

Since the speed of the horse is increasing per second i.e., the speed in not constant, so the motion of the horse is accelerated.
