A
The relationship between population growth and resources is inverse; as one goes up the other goes down.
Explanation:
An inverse relationship is one where when one variable is affected positively, the other is negatively impacted, and vice versa. In other terms, when one variable increases the other decreases.
When population growth increases, the strain on the resources increases, due to increased competition, and hence the resources decrease. This is why ideally apopulation cannot grow indefinitely because resources are always limited. The population growth will start to levels off as it reaches carrying capacity. When the resources become depleted the population growth plummets.

Explanation:
True, if sedimentary rock is exposed to energy from the sun at Earth's surface for a long enough time, it can melt into liquid rock and form igneous rock. No, igneous rock forms under Earth's outer layer due to energy from Earth's interior, but sedimentary rock is only at Earth's surface.
Answer:During the process of glycolysis in cellular respiration, glucose is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water. Energy released during the reaction is captured by the energy-carrying molecule ATP (adenosine triphosphate).

Explanation:
- The glomerulus is a unique high-pressure capillary bed because the <u>afferent</u> arteriole feeding it is larger in diameter than the <u>efferent </u>arteriole draining the bed.
- Glomerular filtrate is very similar to <u>blood plasma</u>, but it has fewer proteins.
- Mechanisms of tubular reabsorption include <u>diffusion (passive transport) </u>and <u>active transport</u>.
- As an aid for the reabsorption process, the cells of the PCT have dense <u>microvilli </u>on their luminal surface, which increases surface area dramatically.
- Other than reabsorption and important tubule function is <u>secretion</u>, which is important for ridding the body of substances not already in the filtrate.
- Blood composition depends on <u>urine output</u>, <u>cellular metabolism</u><u>,</u> and <u>diet</u>.
- In a day's time, 180 liters of blood plasma is filtered into the kidney tubules, but only about <u>1-1.8</u> liters of urine is actually produced.
- <u>Urochrome</u> is responsible for the normal yellow coloration of urine.
- The three major nitrogenous wastes found in the blood, which must be disposed of, are<u> urea</u>, <u>uric acid</u>, and <u>creatinine</u>.
- When water loss via<u> </u><u>vaporization</u> from the <u>lungs</u>, or <u>perspiration</u> from the <u>skin</u> is excessive, urine output <u>decreases</u>.
- If the kidneys become nonfunctional, <u>dialysis</u> is used to cleanse the blood of impurities.
