The correct answer is Oxycodone.

Oxycodone refers to a drug, which is generally prescribed in certain cases to treat severe pain. At lower doses, it leads to fatigue, memory loss, headache, itching, anxiety, and constriction of the pupil. At higher doses, Oxycodone causes lowered heart rate, slowed or stopped breathing that may eventually lead to unconsciousness and death.

In addition, it can also result in inhibition of blood flowing in specific regions of the circulatory system. This can eventually result in organ failure, loss of muscle control, and gangrene.

From which of the following does the right atrium receive blood?
olga2289 [7]

The right atrium receives blood returning from others parts of the body through the superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava.  

Explanation:

The pathway of circulation begins in the right atrium which receives the carbon dioxide-rich deoxygenated blood returning through the systemic circulation.  

The deoxygenated blood from regions superior to the heart, i.e., the head, neck, shoulder areas are collected through the superior vena cava and that from the parts inferior or lower to the heart like visceral organs, extremities, trunk, hip etc are brought through the inferior vena cava.

Both these venous systems (superior and inferior) fill the right atrium.

The right atrium then pumps the deoxygenated blood to the right ventricle via the tricuspid valve.

The right atrium is filled with blood during diastole.

How do climate and abiotic factors affect how organisms will be distributed in ecosystems?
solong [7]

Answer:

Every organisms on the planet requires a specific environmental conditions for its growth and survival. If the environmental condition is favorable, the organisms grow fast and if the conditions are not suitable so it adversely affected the organisms. For example, plants grow best at the temperature between 25 to 40 Celsius. If the temperature goes below 25 or above 40, the growth decrease and sometimes the plant dies. So climate and abiotic factors such as temperature, humidity, light intensity etc has a great impact on the organisms.
