Both dolphins and whales still have their hip (pelvic) bones present. These bones connect and transfer the weight of the trunk to the lower limbs.

Thus, <em>the presence of the pelvic bone may indicate that whales had ancestors that walked on land</em>.

Answer:

Thus, the presence of the pelvic bone may indicate that whales had ancestors that walked on land.  

Explanation:

Evolutionism claims that whales have pelvic bones (hips) that are evolutionary remains from when their ancestors walked the earth more than 40 million years ago. The commonly accepted hypothesis considers that these bones are simply vestigial, regressing slowly over time. At the definition level, 'vestigial organs' originally referred to useless parts of the body that were left over from some evolutionary ancestor

Answer:

A hematocrit value of your blood would be greater than normal because of dehydration.

Explanation:

The hematocrit value is an indicator of the proportion of the solid components of blood (red blood cells) with respect to the liquid component (it means plasma). When you are severely dehydrated, the proportion of plasma diminish while the solid components remain the same. In consequence, the red blood cells concentration will be greater and the hematocrit value (solid components/plasma) will be higher than normal. This condition is reversible, if you drink enough water, your hematrocrit values will be normal again.

Which of the following INCORRECTLY describes a polymer? Which of the following INCORRECTLY describes a polymer?
Len [333]

Answer:

A. ATP is a polymer of phosphates.

Explanation:

ATP is not a polymer of phosphates. It is a rather a complex organic molecule that has its main function to provide energy.

Starch and glycogens are polysaccharides or polymers of glucose or simply put, they have glucose subunits.

Nucleotides are biological molecules consisting of 3 major sub units which are the nitrogenous base, the phosphate acid and the 5 carbon (ribose) sugar. They are the building blocks of DNA and RNA and hence monomers.

Amino acids are basically organic compounds that contain amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to every amino acid molecule. They are bond together by a peptide bond between the -NH2 and -COOH group to furthet form polypetides. Proteins in the same vein are called polypeptides which is a chain of amino acids.

Plot blood pressure against time for one cardiac cycle in humans, drawing separate lines for the pressure in the aorta, the left
galben [10]

The expansion of the aorta causes a rise in blood volume and blood pressure.

<h3>What is the cardiac cycle?</h3>

Heartbeat pattern The cardiac cycle includes all of the physiological processes connected to a single pulse, including the electrical, muscular (pressures and volumes), sensory, and other activities. During each cardiac cycle, both ventricles and atria beat alternately.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

The human heart's cardiac cycle includes two phases: ventricular relaxation and atrial contraction. The right ventricle has low pressure when the right ventricular systolic pressure is frequently less than 30 mm Hg. The left ventricle has a thicker wall and more muscle mass than the right ventricle as a result of the blood flowing at a high pressure. The expansion of the aorta causes a rise in blood volume and blood pressure.
