Answer: Option D

After load is the force the ventricles must overcome to eject blood into their respective arteries.

Explanation:

Afterload is the pressure or force the heart must overcome to release blood to the arteries during systole. It is proportional to the average arterial pressure. After load is also proportional to the mean systolic blood pressure measured in millimeters of mercury. It I'd a determinat of cardiac output and cardiac output is the product of stroke volume and heart rate.

Which energy source does not originate from the sun?
makkiz [27]
The only exception would be nuclear energy. Heavy elements like Uranium got their stored energy from ancient supernovae, that doesn't come from the sun. And fusing hydrogen is tapping energy that has been around since the Big Bang.

Why do you think weather scientists use percentages instead of saying “it will definitely rain today”?
grigory [225]

Answer:

Right now, I am in college for climatology, but before I decided on climatology, I was taking classes in Meteorology, the study of weather. So, I will answer your question. All meteorologists like to be right, but since the weather is so spontaneous, it is really hard to be right. Meteorologists use percentages because it helps them be professional. Also, because, different parts of the region where they are may or may not get the rain. I don't know where you are from, but I will use my hometown. In McAlester, Oklahoma, there may be a 70% chance of rain, but in another part of the region at Tulsa, Oklahoma ( which is 91 miles north of McAlester) there may be a 40% chance of rain. The difference in the percentages can vary from how stable the environment is, altitude, location, and terrain. That is two of the reasons why Meteorologists use percentages to predict weather.

3. Which of the following statements explains why atoms are always neutral in charge
Anna35 [415]

D.

They have the same number of protons as electrons.

Explanation:

Protons are found in the nucleus of the atom and have a positive charge while electrons orbit around the nucleus and have a negative charge. Usually, in a neutral atom of an element, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. This is why the atom has no charge because the positive and negative charges cancel out. When an atom loses an electron its charge turns positive while when it gains an electron its charge turns negative.
