Protein synthesis as well as DNA transcription
Answer:
a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth's atmosphere because of the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of pollutants.
Explanation:
<span>Carrying capacity is how many animals a given location can hold. This means that if the number of rabbits, n, exceeds the carrying capacity, C, then the difference between the number of rabbits minus the carrying capacity (n - C) will likely die to starvation.
Seasons in Ohio can directly affect carrying capacity because colder weather usually means less food. Rabbits can eat plants as well, and in winter, plants do not do well to survive. Thus, the carrying capacity will decrease. In contrast, in summer, plants flourish so the carrying capacity will increase.</span>
Answer:
C) Most fungi get their nutrients by ingesting small pieces of other living organisms.
Explanation:
Most fungi are saprotroph, it is, they obtain nutrients by decomposing non-living organic matter -i.e. dead plant or animal matter- and absorbing soluble organic compounds; carbohydrates are the preferred carbon source.
A smaller percentage of fungal species are parasites, and obtain nutrients from living hosts (other living organisms).
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.
