during a science fair a group of students came up with the following question: "Is color an inherent property in objects or is i

t a product of the mind?" Why would this question be extremely difficult to answer scientifically?

Because the pigments in objects absorb or reflect light, and the reflected light which we recognize as a specific color. Each person or animal could recognize that color as something completely different than another. Also, because color is only a reflection of light, what we recognize may not be an inherent property at all.

I hope this helps at least a little!

Answer:

a. Decrease water reabsorption : decrease blood pressure.

b. Decrease peripheral resistance : decrease blood pressure

c. Vasodilation : decrease blood pressure

d. Decrease salt intake : decrease blood pressure

e. Decrease blood volume : decrease blood pressure

f. Vasoconstriction : increase blood pressure

g. Increase peripheral resistance:  increase blood pressure

h. Increase salt intake:  increase blood pressure

i. Increase blood volume : increase blood pressure

j. Increase water reabsorption: increase blood pressure

Explanation:

  • Total peripheral resistance: This term refers to the resistance offered by the vascular system to the blood flow.  This resistance is a result of the friction between the blood and the vessel's walls. In other words, it is the opposition of the vessels to blood flow. The total peripheral resistance is the summary of all the bloody circuit resistances in the body. Those mechanisms that induce vasoconstriction conduce to an increase in total peripheral resistance, while mechanisms that induce vasodilation provoke a decrease in total peripheral resistance.    
  • Blood pressure: This term refers to the strength applied by the blood against the vessel walls as it flows.  This pressure is determined by the bombed blood strength and the volume as well as by the vessel size and flexibility. Blood pressure changes continuously according to the activity, temperature, diet, emotional state, among others.    
  • Salt ingestion causes an increase in plasmatic osmolarity, stimulates thirst, and hence, water ingestion. Sodium retains water, expanding the blood volume and causing an increase in vessel pressure.
  • The antidiuretic hormone, also known as vasopressin hormone, is released by changes in serum osmolarity or blood volume. Its function is to keep homeostasis and make kidneys conserve or keep water by concentrating urine and by reducing its volume. By these actions, the antidiuretic hormone stimulates water reabsorption, according to the organism´s needs.
  • Kidneys control blood pressure in many ways. If the pressure is elevated, kidneys produce the loss of salt and water, normalizing arterial pressure. But if pressure is low, kidneys conserve water.

If a woman is homozygous for red hair and her husband is homozygous for brown hair, what is the probability that they will have
boyakko [2]
Well, you failed to mention which one is the recessive trait in this instance. But, let’s say red hair is recessive, denoted by r and brown hair is dominant denoted by R. Mom is rr and dad is RR. All children are going to be Rr and so heterozygous. They will all carry the trait for red hair but will express brown hair themselves, so 0% probability of having a child with red hair from the initial parents
