There are many reasons why animals defend their territories. For a good bit of animals, the reason that they defend their territories is to gain and protect their food resources, mating areas, their habitat, and much more. They don't really protect their territories to establish 'dominance' within a social group. They don't do it to eliminate the need for social hierarchies. They don't do it for the reason to increase their space either - although some animals do this sometimes.

Therefore, the correct answer would be the first option you've provided, in my eyes. They do it to maintain access to food, shelter, and mates. If you have any further questions, please be sure to ask me! I'll be more than happy to help!

A) to maintain access to food, shelter, and mates.

Which diuretic remains effective when creatinine clearance drops below 25 ml/min?
OLga [1]
Loop Diuretics

These are diuretics that exerts effect on the loop of Henle.  They are primarily used in heart failure, hypertension and edema. In contrast with Thiazides, loop diuretics are more  effective in patients with abnormal kidney function. Loop diuretics inhibit the magnesium and calcium reabsorption in the thick ascending limb of Henle. Loop diuretics is highly protein bound. It has volume of distribution that is limited. This causes the diuretics to be secreted in the convuluted tubules  to exert its function.
