Answer:

D) The population become adapted to different environments and eventually become so different that they cannot interbreed to produce fertile offspring.

Explanation:

Speciation is divided into three stages:

a) Separation.

b) Adaptation.

c) Reproductive Isolation.

Stage 1: Separation.

A part of the population separates and adapts to a new environment. Natural events such as tsunamis, tidal waves can cause organisms to separate from their initial habitat to a new environment.

Stage 2: Adaptation.

At this stage, the organisms evolve new traits that enable them to the new environment. They possess certain characteristics that enables them to fit into the new environment. Example The great white skin's colour makes it difficult for it to be seen in the dark.

Stage 3: Reproductive Isolation.

At this stage, organisms of the same specie reunites and  do not interbreed with each other. Here, species are isolated  into new ones so they have the best adaptations for their new habitat.

belka [17]

Answer: Incomplete dominance

Explanation:

In incomplete dominance, both alleles are expressed but have become blended giving rise to a new trait with one also been more noticed than the other although both are expressed. For instance a red flower and a white flower are crossed, giving rise to a pink flower. As compared to codominance, both alleles are equally expressed and are equally dominant. For example, a white college crossed with a black hen giving rise to a black and white (checkered) chick.

Write a brief paragraph as to how each condition affects blood flow
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Pulse Pressure

As shown in Figure 1, the difference between the systolic pressure and the diastolic pressure is the pulse pressure. For example, an individual with a systolic pressure of 120 mm Hg and a diastolic pressure of 80 mm Hg would have a pulse pressure of 40 mmHg.

Generally, a pulse pressure should be at least 25 percent of the systolic pressure. A pulse pressure below this level is described as low or narrow. This may occur, for example, in patients with a low stroke volume, which may be seen in congestive heart failure, stenosis of the aortic valve, or significant blood loss following trauma. In contrast, a high or wide pulse pressure is common in healthy people following strenuous exercise, when their resting pulse pressure of 30–40 mm Hg may increase temporarily to 100 mm Hg as stroke volume increases. A persistently high pulse pressure at or above 100 mm Hg may indicate excessive resistance in the arteries and can be caused by a variety of disorders. Chronic high resting pulse pressures can degrade the heart, brain, and kidneys, and warrant medical treatment.

Mean Arterial Pressure

Mean arterial pressure (MAP) represents the “average” pressure of blood in the arteries, that is, the average force driving blood into vessels that serve the tissues. Mean is a statistical concept and is calculated by taking the sum of the values divided by the number of values. Although complicated to measure directly and complicated to calculate, MAP can be approximated by adding the diastolic pressure to one-third of the pulse pressure or systolic pressure minus the diastolic pressure:

\displaystyle \text{MAP}=\text{diastolic BP}+\frac{(\text{systolic}-\text{diastolic BP})}{3}MAP=diastolic BP+

Pulse

After blood is ejected from the heart, elastic fibers in the arteries help maintain a high-pressure gradient as they expand to accommodate the blood, then recoil. This expansion and recoiling effect, known as the pulse, can be palpated manually or measured electronically. Although the effect diminishes over distance from the heart, elements of the systolic and diastolic components of the pulse are still evident down to the level of the arterioles.

This image shows the pulse points in a woman’s body.

Figure 2. The pulse is most readily measured at the radial artery, but can be measured at any of the pulse points shown.

Because pulse indicates heart rate, it is measured clinically to provide clues to a patient’s state of health. It is recorded as beats per minute. Both the rate and the strength of the pulse are important clinically. A high or irregular pulse rate can be caused by physical activity or other temporary factors, but it may also indicate a heart condition. The pulse strength indicates the strength of ventricular contraction and cardiac output. If the pulse is strong, then systolic pressure is high. If it is weak, systolic pressure has fallen, and medical intervention may be warranted.

Pulse can be palpated manually by placing the tips of the fingers across an artery that runs close to the body surface and pressing lightly. While this procedure is normally performed using the radial artery in the wrist or the common carotid artery in the neck, any superficial artery that can be palpated may be used. Common sites to find a pulse include temporal and facial arteries in the head, brachial arteries in the upper arm, femoral arteries in the thigh, popliteal arteries behind the knees, posterior tibial arteries near the medial tarsal regions, and dorsalis pedis arteries in the feet. A variety of commercial electronic devices are also available to measure pulse.

Which of the following statements about the sympathetic nervous system is true? A. Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

D. The nerves exit the central nervous system in the head and from the lumbar spine.

Explanation:

The preganglionic neurons transmit the nerve impulses through the cranial or spinal nerves that arise from the brain, to the postganglionic neurons from where the nerve fibers that relay these nerve signals to the different viscera and effector organs, located along the spinal cord

What structure brings tRNA and mRNA together
tester [92]
Translation requires some specialized equipment. Just as you wouldn't go to play tennis without your racket and ball, so a cell couldn't translate an mRNA into a protein without two pieces of molecular gear: ribosomes and tRNAs.<span>Ribosomes provide a structure in which translation can take place. They also catalyze the reaction that links amino acids to make a new protein.</span><span>tRNAs (transfer RNAs) carry amino acids to the ribosome. They act as "bridges," matching a codon in an mRNA with the amino acid it codes for.</span>Here, we’ll take a closer look at ribosomes and tRNAs. If you're not yet familiar with RNA (which stands for ribonucleic acid), I highly recommend checking out the nucleic acids section first so you can get the most out of this article!Ribosomes: Where the translation happensTranslation takes place inside structures called ribosomes, which are made of RNA and protein. Ribosomes organize translation and catalyze the reaction that joins amino acids to make a protein chain.
