Chronic kidney disease is when your kidney is not functioning properly. Kidneys contain filters called nephrons. It is the their job to filter the blood of waste products and extra fluid. As a result, your body flushes the waste out as urine. The most common causes of chronic kidney disease are diabetes and high blood pressure. If your blood vessels contain a high concentration of sugar and cholesterol, the nephrons would take the exhaustive work. In the long run, if you keep eating unhealthy food, the kidney could no longer catch up. Thus, resulting to chronic kidney disease.

What will happen to a population of predators if there is a sudden, temporary increase in the number of prey?
alekssr [168]
The number of predators and preys change from time to time following cycles. Whenever there is fewer prey, predators start dying because they have not enough to eat; however, that provokes the population of prey to be increased while there are fewer predators. So if suddenly the number of prey gets bigger, regardless of the number of predators, the cycles get disturbed by this sudden occurrence. The predators will get more to hunt, therefore getting more violent.

Which of the following statements is FALSE?
Naya [18.7K]

Answer: d. None of the above is false.

Explanation: The reasons are:

Intermolecular forces should be reduced when molecules need to be vaporized, otherwise they will not be converted into vapours.

When the temperature increases, forces of attraction decreases which allows molecules to evaporate because energy will be increased which allows molecule to break bonding between them. Hence increasing temperature has effect on vaporization.

Dispersion forces is the weakest force between molecules and hydrogen bond is strong so molecule having only dispersion force will evaporate at the higher rate.
