Polycythemia is defined an abnormal increase in the number of circulating red blood cells. It is mainly caused by a cancerous condition known as myeloproliferative disorder or due to a low supply of oxygen to body tissues usually due to living in high altitude areas and the body tries to compensate by producing more red blood cells to increase oxygen carrying capacity of the blood Normal blood count values in a male adult is 4.7 to 6.1 million cells/mcL, while in a female adult it is 4.2 to 5.4 million cell/mcL. 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.

sleet_krkn [62]

So whats the answer. My best logical guess is D. Why would the turtle have to go above the water. If their living in a pond, then studying them above water makes no sense. So it's most useful if they are remaining underwater for many minutes at a time then reach for the surface, so that's the answer most likely, but i have no idea.

So... <em>D. A turtle may remain underwater for several minutes, but then surfaces for at least a brief moment.</em>

Vegan vegetarians must rely on complimenting proteins in order to get all the essential amino acids. choose the best combination
liubo4ka [24]
If you want a complete protein in one food, tofu is probably your best bet. However, since you're probably not going to want to eat that every day, the best thing to do is eat a variety of high protein foods. Mix your proteins in order to get complete proteins. So, have say a grain (quinoa, millet, or brain rice are good) and have it with beans, or tempeh, or seitan, or nuts, etc. If you search for specific foods on that site, it'll show you which of the amino acids that food contains, and let you search for foods with complementary proteins. So if you want to be extra sure you're getting enough complete proteins, check what you're eating to see the amino acids in all of the different foods.
