Which statement BEST characterizes the general relationship between air pressure and elevation?

Biology
1 answer:
Ad libitum [116K]3 years ago
4 0

Both have an inverse relationship.


Explanation:

The two have an inverse relationship, that is, when elevation increases, atmospheric pressure decreases.

This is due to the amount of air on top of you at your current elevation.

At lower elevations, you have more air above you, and thus more pressure.

At higher elevations, you have less air above you, and thus less pressure.


At high elevation food takes longer time too cook due to low pressure, so at high altitude pressure cooker is used to cook food.


OK, :)

Goryan [66]

Answer:

initially, collects in the structure indicated by the letter B

Explanation:

Filtrate is formed as fluid is forced through the walls of the glomerulus and, initially, collects in the structure indicated by the letter B.

Urine formed by a kidney collects in the renal pelvis before being drained from the kidney by the urethra and transported to the urinary bladder.

The process by which glomerulus filtration occurs is called renal ultrafiltration. The force of hydrostatic pressure in the glomerulus (the force of pressure exerted from the pressure of the blood vessel itself) is the driving force that pushes filtrate out of the capillaries and into the slits in the nephron.
