Answer: D. population and nutrients  

Explanation:

A limiting factor is a biological or physical factor which is capable of limiting the growth, abundance and distribution of the population of the species in an ecosystem.

Population and nutrients can be considered as two limiting factors because of the fact that with an increase in the population of the species, can be attractive to the predators and impact of a disease will more profound as it will spread among the large members of the population. Hence, the growth and abundance of the members of the species will be limited with the rise in population. Also in the scarcity of nutrients the population will decline.

Suppose that at a given point along a capillary, the following forces exist: Capillary hydrostatic pressure (HPc) = 30 mmHg Inte
Ainat [17]

Answer:

Suppose that at a given point along a capillary, the following forces exist: Capillary hydrostatic pressure (HPc) = 30 mmHg Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (HPif) = 0 mmHg Capillary colloid osmotic pressure (OPc) = 25 mmHg Interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure (OPif) = 2 mmHg. The net filtration pressure at this point in the capillary is <u>7mmHg.</u>

Explanation:

  • Data:

Capillary hydrostatic pressure (HPc) = 30 mmHg

Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (HPif) = 0 mmHg

Capillary colloid osmotic pressure (OPc) = 25 mmHg

Interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure (OPif) = 2 mmHg

  • Formula Applied :

Net filtration pressure= hydrostatic pressure gradient -  Oncotic pressure gradient

Hydrostatic pressure gradient = Capillary hydrostatic pressure - Interstitial hydrostatic pressure = 30mmHg - 0 mmHg = 30 mmHg

Oncotic pressure gradient =  Capillary colloid osmotic pressure - Interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure =25  - 2 = 23 mmHg

Net filtration pressure= hydrostatic pressure gradient -  Oncotic pressure gradient = 30 mmHg - 23 mmHg = 7 mmHg.

Hence, The net filtration pressure at this point in the capillary is <u>7mmHg.</u>

No, because it still codes for valine in this case, but if another nucleotide was changed such as GCA it would code for alanine instead.

In the early 20th Century, astronomers thought that the Milky Way Galaxy was the entire universe. In fact, they considered spira
qaws [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that the most likely reason for this misconception would be that the spiral galaxies looked like clouds of gas and dust through telescopes because of their distance from Earth. During that time telescopes were still not as advanced and could only see so much, nowadays they are much more advanced and these galaxies are being analyzed and understood more clearly.
