. While Carl Linnaeus catalogued nearly all known organisms of his day, which major group of organisms did he not account for in

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Single-cell organisms

Explanation:

In 1735, Linnaeus introduced a classification system with only two kingdoms: animals and plants. Linnaeus published this system for naming, ranking, and classifying organisms in the book "Systema Naturae". In the epoch that Linnaeus created this system, single-cell organisms such as bacteria and protists were almost unknown. In 1866, E. Haeckel added a category including both bacteria and protozoa, thereby adding a category formed by single-cell organisms (different from animals and plants). During the 1900-1920 period, bacteria were classified as a separated kingdom named 'prokaryotes'. The current three-domain classification system was introduced by C. Woese in 1990. In this system, all forms of life are divided into three different domains: archaea, bacteria, and eukaryote domains (this last composed of protists, fungi, plants and animals).

Suggest appropriate sources of food to meet their requirements for a Newborn baby and child aged 6.

pashok25 [27]

Explanation:

Calcium . Helps build strong bones and teeth.

Fat. Creates energy, helps the brain develop, keeps skin and hair healthy, and protects against infections.

Folate. Helps cells divide.

Iron. Builds blood cells, and helps the brain develop. Breast-fed babies should receive iron supplements.

Protein and carbohydrates. They provide energy and fuel growth.

Zinc. Helps the cells grow and repair themselves

Your baby also needs vitamins such as:

Vitamin A. Keeps skin, hair, vision, and the immune system healthy.

Vitamin B1 (thiamine). Helps the body turn food into energy.

Vitamin B2 (riboflavin). Helps the body turn food into energy, and protects cells from damage.

Vitamin B3 (niacin). Helps the body turn food into energy and use fats and protein.

Vitamin B6. Keeps the brain and immune system healthy.

Vitamin B12. Keeps nerve and blood cells healthy, and makes DNA -- the genetic material in every cell.

Vitamin C. Protects against infections, builds bones and muscles, and helps wounds heal.

Vitamin D. Helps the body absorb calcium from food, and keeps bones and teeth healthy. Breast-fed babies may need a D supplement.

Vitamin E. Protects cells from damage, and strengthens the immune system.

Vitamin K. Helps the blood to clot.

Very small changes in the solute concentrations in the various fluid compartments cause water to move from one compartment to an

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

a. Decrease water reabsorption : decrease blood pressure.

b. Decrease peripheral resistance : decrease blood pressure

c. Vasodilation : decrease blood pressure

d. Decrease salt intake : decrease blood pressure

e. Decrease blood volume : decrease blood pressure

f. Vasoconstriction : increase blood pressure

g. Increase peripheral resistance: increase blood pressure

h. Increase salt intake: increase blood pressure

i. Increase blood volume : increase blood pressure

j. Increase water reabsorption: increase blood pressure

Explanation:

Total peripheral resistance: This term refers to the resistance offered by the vascular system to the blood flow. This resistance is a result of the friction between the blood and the vessel's walls. In other words, it is the opposition of the vessels to blood flow. The total peripheral resistance is the summary of all the bloody circuit resistances in the body. Those mechanisms that induce vasoconstriction conduce to an increase in total peripheral resistance, while mechanisms that induce vasodilation provoke a decrease in total peripheral resistance.

Blood pressure: This term refers to the strength applied by the blood against the vessel walls as it flows. This pressure is determined by the bombed blood strength and the volume as well as by the vessel size and flexibility. Blood pressure changes continuously according to the activity, temperature, diet, emotional state, among others.

Salt ingestion causes an increase in plasmatic osmolarity, stimulates thirst, and hence, water ingestion. Sodium retains water, expanding the blood volume and causing an increase in vessel pressure.
The antidiuretic hormone, also known as vasopressin hormone, is released by changes in serum osmolarity or blood volume. Its function is to keep homeostasis and make kidneys conserve or keep water by concentrating urine and by reducing its volume. By these actions, the antidiuretic hormone stimulates water reabsorption, according to the organism´s needs.
Kidneys control blood pressure in many ways. If the pressure is elevated, kidneys produce the loss of salt and water, normalizing arterial pressure. But if pressure is low, kidneys conserve water.
