Occasionally, some lethal allele (like sickle cell) is unusually common (more than 50% heterozygotes). what does this tell us?

It tells us that there is selection pressure in that particular habitat that selects for individuals with these alleles.

In the case of sickle cell, malaria is the selection pressure as individuals with the sickle cell trait are more resistant to the deadly malaria.

does the changing seasons remove co2 from the air ? i think it might due to increased plant grwoth but im unsure.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
I don't think changing seasons can REMOVE CO2 from the air, but I do think instead it could add it to the air. It's a long process that involves several ecosystems and stuff. But, as the climate is getting warmer, ice caps are melting and within these ice caps... there are trapped bubbles of CO2 that are released ( I am not sure if this adds a lot of CO2 to the atmosphere, but I am sure that it does contribute to CO2 concentration). 

In relation to your last statement... plant growth would actually reduce CO2 in the air because of the process of photosynthesis. Plants take in CO2 and give out O2 for us to breathe. In turn we conduct cellular respiration in which we take in the O2 and give out the CO2. So, plants are actually one good solution for decreasing CO2 levels.

________ drugs relax smooth muscle in the walls of the arteries, cause the arteries to dilate, and are used to treat hypertensio
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Peripheral vasodilators

Explanation:

Peripheral dilators are a form of vasodilators that are involved in the dilation of the most distal parts of the vascular system such as the venules and arterioles. It does this by relaxing the smooth muscle of the blood vessels that are wide open, therefore making it easier for the heart to pump blood through  blood vessels and also the whole body.

In the treatment of hypertension, the peripheral dilators lower blood pressure by decreasing the total peripheral resistance of the arteries. In addition to the treatment of hypertension, they are also used in the treatment of heart failure and acute myocardial infarction.

An example is isoxsuprine.
