Answer:

The correct answer would be D) filters unwanted substances.

Human skeletal system comprises of bones, tendons, cartilages, ligaments and other tissues.

In humans, they perform major functions like movement, support and protect internal organs, production of blood cells (bone marrow), storage of calcium, and endocrine regulation.

Filtration of blood is mainly done by excretory system.

Paul [167]

Answer:

Heart disease is prevalent in the United States because... well, we consume a lot of sodium and fat. If you look at the stats, we are the third country with the most obese residents, with a whopping percentage of 36.20% people in the US tipping the scales. Also, people smoke a lot. Not just adults, but teenagers. Because of this, youngsters tend to also get heart disease too, despite the small age. According to cdc.gov, a family history of heart disease increases the rates, especially if one of your relatives got it under the age of 50. Due to the smoking rates at a young age, those diseases tend to transfer and increase the rates of the future US citizens.

Heart disease can affect a lot of organs, but listing them would be a pain. Here are the highlights: The heart and the lungs are intimately connected. This means that having heart disease may lead to having trouble breathing. You may have chest pains, and particularly in woman, it may affect the digestive system and cause stomach pain when eating.

how factors such as blood pressure blood volume blood viscosity resistance disease and exercice affect blood flow
schepotkina [342]

Blood is essential for many organisms, such as humans and animals, for its important function of transporting substances (food, oxygen), vitamins, waste (carbon dioxide), hormones, etc. to all tissues and cells of the body.

1) Blood volume

If the blood volume increases ==> the blood flow increases.

2) Viscosity of blood

If we have an increase in blood viscosity ==> we have a decrease in blood flow

3) Peripheral Resistance

If there is an increase in peripheral resistance ==> the blood flow decreases

4) Diameter of blood vessels

If we have an increase in diameter of

blood vessels ==> decreased peripheral resistance ==> increased blood flow

5) Blood pressure

If the blood pressure increases ==> the blood flow increases.

6) In case of diseases

In the case of atherosclerosis or acute coronary syndrome ==> blood flow decreases.

7) Physical excercises:

During physical exercises ==> the heart rate increases ==> the blood flow increases.

Explanation:

In a long bone, the epiphyseal is the growing region. In young bones, bone formation occurs in a layer of hyaline cartilage. The epiphyseal plate forms cartilage on the epiphyseal end. Cartilage is calcified on the diaphyseal side, and the diaphysis lengthens.

Why is vinegar used in food preservation?
weqwewe [10]
Vinegar is an extremely acidic liquid. Very few microorganisms (ie bacteria and fungus which cause foods to spoil) can survive in such an acidic environment. Among other effects, it can destroy their cell walls, and prevent their own enzymes working (enzymes are extremely pH sensitive). There are a small number of microorgamisms which are adapted to survive in extreme acidity. However, this adaptation prevents them from surviving in more 'normal' environments. Therefore, anything which can survive in the vinegar, will not likely survive on your kitchen surface, and the same is true the other way around. Therefore, as vitually nothing can colonise whatever is in the vinegar, the food will be very effectively preserved. . . . . . . . . . . you can say........................ . . the low pH a nd high acidity of vinegar destroy bacteria
