Answer:

As the blood pressure in each of the blood vessels is measured, it can be predicted to be lowest in the capillaries.

Explanation:

Options for this question are:

  • <em>Artery.</em>
  • <em>Arteriole.</em>
  • <em>Capillaries.</em>
  • <em>Venule.</em>
  • <em>Vein.</em>

Once the blood leaves the heart, it is distributed in a network of arterial vessels -arteries and arterioles- that bridge the venules and veins through the capillaries. Blood pressure depends on the pumping strength of the heart and the force that blood produces on the vessel walls. There is a marked difference between arterial and venous pressure. Some conclusions can be drawn from this:  

  • <em>Blood pressure is higher the closer the vessel is to the heart. </em>
  • <em>The larger the vessel, the more blood is contained and the more blood pressure is recorded. </em>

Based on this, it can be deduced that the blood vessels with the lowest pressure are the capillaries, with very thin walls and where gas and nutrients or metabolites enter and leave the vessel.

The question gives an answer, but does not explain why.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

A: Suited for their environment

Explanation:

You can automatically eliminate B and C, since they both say that animals with adaptations that won't work with their environment would have a higher survival rate. This doesn't make sense; adaptations that wouldn't suit an environment would actually lower the population's chances of reproduction and survival.
That leads us to A and D. However, A would be the correct answer. Organisms with adaptations that suited their environment would help them (since it would make the organism more compatible with their environment), rather than having no change at all.

Hope this helped!

Which question can most help a writer revise an argumentative essay?
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Do details provide support for the claim?

Explanation:

Your claim is the biggest part of your essay, it sets the tone for what is to be written and the details need to support the claim to back it up, to show the background of the claim. These details need to be precise to the claim because if not, the essay will not nor ever be near considered a good essay and that goes for all essays that have a thesis or claim in general.
