Answer:

The correct answer is option D, that is, the population grows at a constant rate until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then the population size remains stable.

Explanation:

The maximum capacity of the monarch butterfly, which can thrive in the meadow is 5000, which signifies that the population of twenty butterflies will continue to grow unless and until it attains the population of 5000.  

In case if the growth of the population takes place exponentially, then there would be an end and the limit of 5000 would not have any significance. However, if the growth of the population takes place logistically, then the end of the growth would be the same as the limit that signifies that the 5000 limits would exhibit significance.  

Thus, the only probable answer would be option D, that is, the population will attain 5000 mark and post that the growth will become stable, which precisely takes place in a logistic growth.

Answer:

The only possible answer is D, which states that the population will reach 5000 and after that the growth will stabilise (exactly what would hapen in a logistic growth).

Sickled red blood cells are believed to block blood that is trying to exit the corpus​ spongiosum, which for men​ causes:
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Answer is B. Priapism.

Explanation:

Corpus spongiosum are the three cylinders encased in the bucks fascia. They run through the glass and shaft of the penis, and during erection, they contain almost 85-90% of theology volume.

Priapism can be described as persistent erection of the penis, which is caused by excessive blood flow to the penis or when blood is trapped inside the penis blood chambers I. e, corpus spongiosum.

Priapism can be of two types, they are

1. High- flow Priapism : this is caused when the artery supplying blood to the penis is damaged, thereby, causing it to be oversupplied with oxygenated blood. This type is not painful and can be treated by adopting cold therapy, the use of ice packs.

2. Low-flow Priapism : This occurs when old blood is trapped inside the penis blood chambers. This type is very painful and require urgent medical attention.

Note that, the second type of priapism,low-flow priapism, is caused in the case of a sickled-cell person, because the shape of the blood cell can easily trap blood in the penis.

I think it would be the second one because some think that there is enough evidence and some do not.
