Which statements describe freshwater sources? Check all that apply.
vekshin1

"Rainwater can replace or replenish freshwater sources" and "precipitation, such as rainwater, is a source of freshwater on Earth" statements describe freshwater sources

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rainwater a source of pure distilled water, evaporated by the sun. When it falls it comes in contact of air and land. when ground soaks the water it becomes mineral water. And it is safe for drinking.

All the freshwater sources are result of precipitation from the earth surface,in various form i.e rain,mist,snow.  Freshwater falling as rain have materials dissolved from atmosphere in it,sea and the land over which the clouds has travelled.

More than 90 percent of the weight of fat in foods and more than 95 percent of the stored fat in the human body are in the form
Darya [45]

More than 90 percent of the weight of fat in foods and more than 95 percent of the stored fat in the human body are in the form of: triglycerides.

<h3>What is triglycerides?</h3>

Among fats, triglycerides are one. They make up the majority of the fat in your body. They originate in food, particularly in the butter, oils, and other fats you consume. Additionally, extra calories provide triglycerides. You consume these calories, which your body does not immediately require. These extra calories are converted by your body into triglycerides and stored as fat. The triglycerides are released when your body requires energy. The triglycerides are transported to your tissues by VLDL cholesterol particles.

Your chance of developing heart conditions like coronary artery disease is increased if your triglyceride levels are high.

To learn more about triglycerides from the given link:

Since hemoglobin is attracted more to carbon monoxide than it is to oxygen, what is likely to happen to a person if he breathes
vodomira [7]
C. He could suffocate from lack of oxygen in his blood.

Given the statement that hemoglobin (used to transport oxygen throughout our body) is more attracted to carbon monoxide, it is highly likely that most, if not all, the hemoglobin in a human body will be bound to carbon monoxide instead of oxygen when a person inhales too much carbon monoxide. This results in a lack of hemoglobin carrying oxygen to the cells of the body. Oxygen deficiency occurs.

Explain why hyperthermophiles do not cause disease in humans.
JulsSmile [24]

A gene mutation is a permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene, such that the sequence differs from what is found in most people. Mutations range in size; they can affect anywhere from a single DNA building block (base pair) to a large segment of a chromosome that includes multiple genes.

Gene mutations can be classified in two major ways:

<span>Hereditary mutations are inherited from a parent and are present throughout a person’s life in virtually every cell in the body. These mutations are also called germline mutations because they are present in the parent’s egg or sperm cells, which are also called germ cells. When an egg and a sperm cell unite, the resulting fertilized egg cell receives DNA from both parents. If this DNA has a mutation, the child that grows from the fertilized egg will have the mutation in each of his or her cells.Acquired (or somatic) mutations occur at some time during a person’s life and are present only in certain cells, not in every cell in the body. These changes can be caused by environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation from the sun, or can occur if a mistake is made as DNA copies itself during cell division. Acquired mutations in somatic cells (cells other than sperm and egg cells) cannot be passed on to the next generation.</span>

Genetic changes that are described as de novo (new) mutations can be either hereditary or somatic. In some cases, the mutation occurs in a person’s egg or sperm cell but is not present in any of the person’s other cells. In other cases, the mutation occurs in the fertilized egg shortly after the egg and sperm cells unite. (It is often impossible to tell exactly when a de novo mutation happened.) As the fertilized egg divides, each resulting cell in the growing embryo will have the mutation. De novo mutations may explain genetic disorders in which an affected child has a mutation in every cell in the body but the parents do not, and there is no family history of the disorder.

Somatic mutations that happen in a single cell early in embryonic development can lead to a situation called mosaicism. These genetic changes are not present in a parent’s egg or sperm cells, or in the fertilized egg, but happen a bit later when the embryo includes several cells. As all the cells divide during growth and development, cells that arise from the cell with the altered gene will have the mutation, while other cells will not. Depending on the mutation and how many cells are affected, mosaicism may or may not cause health problems.

Most disease-causing gene mutations are uncommon in the general population. However, other genetic changes occur more frequently. Genetic alterations that occur in more than 1 percent of the population are called polymorphisms. They are common enough to be considered a normal variation in the DNA. Polymorphisms are responsible for many of the normal differences between people such as eye color, hair color, and blood type. Although many polymorphisms have no negative effects on a person’s health, some of these variations may influence the risk of developing certain disorders.

Match each cardiac valve with the two chambers it separates. Each pair of chambers may be used more than once, or not at all. tr
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

The tricuspid valve separates the right atrium from the right ventricle carrying deoxygenated blood from right atrium to right ventricle

The mitral/bicuspid valve separates the left atrium from the left ventricle carrying oxygenated blood from left atrium to left ventricle

Pulmonary semilunar valves separates the right ventricle from the pulmonary artery preventing bachelor of blood.

Aortic semilunar valves separates the left ventricle from the aorta preventing backflow of blood
