Answer:

The answer that would fill in the blank for the statement: Insertion of a device into the muscle to measure the pressure within the muscle is monitoring of:___, would be: Interstitial Fluid Pressure, or IFP.

Explanation:

Normally, between tissues, little to no fluid should exist. However, in certain diseases, like for example in tumorous cancers, the blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels, become leaky, and allow fluids to move from them into the interstitial space. When this amount of fluid exceeds the limits, organs become severelly affected, including the muscles, bones, and the skin. The measuring of this IFP allows doctors to know how severe the problem is getting and in extreme cases may lead to the insertion of methods to drain this fluid, and use of medication as well.

Why would you send a copy of the instructions in DNA versus sending the actual DNA molecule?

USPshnik [31]

DNA is copied because it cannot fit through the nuclear membrane and travel down to the ribosome.
So it is transcribed (translated) to messenger RNA (mRNA). The mRNA can fit through the nuclear membrane and travel down to the ribosome where proteins can be made.

This is why we cannot send the entire DNA molecule itself, it is simply too big to fit. This is why mRNA is extremely important for amino acid production.

What differentiates anthropocentric and biocentric views of the environment?

Dafna11 [192]

If we were to differentiate anthroprocentric and biocentric views of the environment you could say that anthroprocentric is more holistic than biocentric. They consider the importance of the environment to human beings. Biocentric sees humans as an individual part of the environment.

Also Biocentric views tend to focus more on biotic factors (living things) and anthroprocentric veer towards the abiotic factors (non-living things).
