Answer:

The correct answer is thrombocytosis.

Explanation:

Thrombocytosis refers to an elevation in the concentration of thrombocytes in the blood. Thrombocytosis also termed as hyperthrombocytosis is the condition in which the platelet count becomes more than 450 Giga per liter. Thus, it is a disorder in which the body generates too many platelets.  

The condition is differentiated further into two types, that is, reactive thrombocytosis and essential thrombocythemia. The reactive thrombocytosis can be a result of an underlying medical condition like infections, cancer, removal of the spleen, acute bleeding and blood loss, or some kind of inflammatory disorders.  

The cause of essential thrombocythemia is not clear, however, it seems to be associated with certain mutations.

Explain how the use of a chemical designed to kill grasshoppers could reduce the population of peregrine falcons.
Butoxors [25]
Peregrine falcons have a wide diet, including many types of smaller birds. These birds eat bugs like grasshoppers. So, if the grasshopper population decreases, then the birds who are a food source to peregrine falcons will also have a lower population. This means that there is a lesser amount of food for the peregrine falcons to eat, so their population will decrease as well. 

Good luck with your problems!
