Health

Some reminders are necessary:
Artery does not have valves, the blood pressure on it is very high, there is no risk of blood backflow, so it does not need valves
Arteries are vessels that transport blood from the heart to capillaries.
Veins are vessels that transport blood back to the heart from capillaries.


According to these reminders, you could conclude that:
A is false (no backflow in arteries)
C is false (no backflow in arteries)
D is false ( veins take blood to the heart)
so the right answer is B

What are some way that addiction can harm other people? State your answer in a paragraph. (Site 1)
Ahat [919]

Hello, just some info I whipped up I guess.

So, Addiction can lead to a number of factors. When someone gets addicted to something whatever it is food, games, and drugs (you know which ones I am talking about), this triggers the mind of that person and can either become very beneficial or very harmful. Now, there is a very <em>low</em> percentage between addiction being good or bad because it is mostly harmful to people and the ones around them. Bad addiction results in the persons' mind being taken over by nothing but their selves. Gaming and drugs are the most negative addictions that we see today. This is because they are so easy to get and use, yet so hard to get rid of. Addiction to drugs can change ones temper and rage levels between their families causing them to break apart and isolate. Some even kill or start to get a desire to kill a family member due to taking the harmful drugs because they loose their minds. Gaming addiction causes mostly young youth to forget about almost everything and focus on what they are playing. Sometimes, when parents take away or shut down a game this can sometimes cause some of the gamers rage in anger. Now, don't get me wrong, drugs are totally wrong but most other things that become and addiction aren't always so bad. An addiction is what you can control. Unlike drugs, once you take them you might never stop.
