Hypertension (high blood pressure) has negative effects on health because people with this condition have a higher risk for heart disease and other medical problems than people with normal blood pressure.
If left untreated , hypertension can lead to :
1. heart attack
2. Stroke
3. enlarged heart
4. Kidney damage.
Once the kidneys are damaged, homeostasis in the body is severely impaired because the body no longer has the ability to clear waste products, which when they accumulate tend to poison the body leading to such conditions as uremia.
Answer:
Biogenesis = <u>Life from life</u> : Spontaneous Generation = <u>Life from non-living things</u>
Explanation:
As an accurate statement of the difference between spontaneous generation and biogenesis:
Spontaneous generation that sometimes refers to "abiogenesis" is an idea that life comes from non-living things/components. Whereas biogenesis is a contemporary concept that life can only arise from another living thing.
Cell division, a baby of mice born from adult males and females, etc. are some examples of biogenesis. In contrast, there is no example of spontaneous generation. It remains a theoretical concept.
There are both natural and human sources of carbondioxide<span> emissions. Natural sources include decomposition, ocean release and </span>respiration<span>.

Answer:
The type of natural selection that occur when intermediate phenotype is favored is called STABILIZING SELECTION.
Explanation:
There are 3 major types of natural selection, these are: stabilizing, directional and diversifying selection.
A stabilizing selection is said to occur when natural selection favors average phenotype by selecting against extreme variations. Stabilizing selection usually leads to decrease in genetic variation of the population concerned.
A good example of stabilizing selection is that of snakes, which have deep green color that blend completely with their environment. This set of snakes will escape from predators more than others in the population, which have color that slightly differ from deep green and which do not blend very well with the environment. Those snakes, whose colour do not blend very well with their environment will get killed more easily by the predators and with time will become extinct while those with colour that blend with the enviroment will survive and produce more offspring.
The extinction of snakes from the population will lead to decrease in genetic variation.
