Is the blood pressure measured in the calf larger or smaller than the blood pressure measured on the upper arm?
lana66690 [7]
<span>The blood pressure measured in the calf is lower than it is in the arm. Blood pressure in the body is highest right at the ascending arch of the aorta. From that point, the pressure decreases as blood moves "distally" from the heart. Purely mechanically, legs are farther away from the heart than are the arms, thus pressure is less.</span>

Why is it important for a animal like a jellyfish to immobilize its prey?
NARA [144]
A jellyfish is a type of creature known as a Coelenterata. That’s a fancy term to say it lives only in the ocean where the weight of the water can support it’s very delicate outer membranes or its “skin”. Jellyfish like to eat small marine creatures such as fish. If they couldn’t immobilize their prey, the fish could easily kill the jellyfish by thrashing around and ‘popping’ the jellyfish like you can on a beach.

What type of body shape and tail shape do the triggerfish and hawkfish have? select one:
Dima020 [189]
Triggerfish and hawks fish. They have depressed body shape and their tail is diphycercal. Their tail shape gives them manoeuvrability and their body shape allows them to fit into small places on the reefs which makes them good for adaptations.
Shark fish; they have fusiform body shape and heterocercal tail shape and their good adaptation help them to be top predators and need speed to hunt down their animal.
Stingray; they have depressed body shape and diphycercal tail shape. Their good adaptation helps them to timid fish who feed and hide along the bottom.
