Answer:

The correct answer will be- tension

Explanation:

Centripetal force is the force acting on the object moving in a circular path with direction towards the center. The centripetal force causes the object to follow a curved path.

Three forces together act on the string with key: Tension (a force acting on the key chain due to string), gravity (the downward force), and friction (resisting force). Out of these the main source of action of centripetal force is the "tension" applied by the string on the key-chain.

Thus, tension is the answer.

Roughly 17 litres of the filtered plasma is reabsorbed directly into the blood vessels, while the remaining three litres remain in the interstitial fluid. One of the main functions of the lymph system is to provide an accessory return route to the blood for the surplus three litres

andrey2020 [161]

Hello. The chart mentioned in the question above is attached just below.

Answer:

A) has increased with increasing human population

Explanation:

As you can see in the graph below, the line that indicates the number of endangered species increases as the line that represents the increase in the human population increases. This means that the number of extinct species has increased with the increase in the human population.

This is because with the increase in the human population, there is a growing need for natural resources, in addition to increasing the need for cities to expand. All of this results in greater deforestation and extraction of natural resources, which ends up causing an increase in the factors responsible for the extinction of animals.
