Answer:

decline: decrease

Explanation:

Transpiration is the loss of water from stomata by the process of evaporation. It occurs by the process of diffusion and is driven by the concentration gradient of water vapor. The higher the concentration gradient between air and leaf cells, the higher is the rate of diffusion of water.

On a sunny day, the rate of transpiration is higher since air is less humid and the concentration of water inside the leaf is higher. On the other hand, the air is more humid on a rainy day. The increased water vapor content of air reduces the concentration gradient between air and leaf cells. The reduced concentration gradient decreases the rate of transpiration.

The reduction of blood volume occurs following severe dehydration and hemorrhage; however, although dehydration results in an in
Ilya [14]

During bleeding, both formed elements (platelets, white blood cells, red blood cells) and plasma are lost from the circulatory system. They are lost proportionally, so initially there is no change in hematocrit.

Hematocrit is the percentage of the blood volume made up of elements (Hct = cell volume/blood volume). During dehydration, only water and electrolytes are lost, and the number of cells remains constant - the same number of cells in a smaller volume leads to an increase in hematocrit. When the body tries to restore blood volume, the first thing to recirculate is water from the ECF and this increases the amount of water without increasing the amount of red blood cells, so the compensatory mechanism causes the hematocrit to fall.

What is the outcome of amino acids if someone overeats protein and calories in general?
Alex73 [517]

The outcome of amino acids if someone overeats protein and calories in general is "the amino acids are stored as fat".

<h3>What is amino acid?</h3>

Amino acids are molecules that combine to form proteins. Amino acids and proteins are the building blocks of life.

You need amino acids for vital processes such as building proteins, hormones, and neurotransmitters.

Amino acids are concentrated in protein-rich foods such as;

  • meat,
  • fish
  • egg
  • soybeans, etc

<h3>What are calories?</h3>

Calorie is a unit of energy. This derived from eating energy giving foods.

Excess calories in the body is often store d as fat.

Thus,  the outcome of amino acids if someone overeats protein and calories in general is "the amino acids are stored as fat".
