Mitosis is the reproduction of cells
Answer:
The correct answer is 6.67 %.
Explanation:
The average osmotic pressure of the brain is 300 mM
Given the concentration of solution is 280 mM
Difference is 300 - 280 = 20 mM
This difference is sufficient to stimulate osmosis and make water move from CSF to the brain until the concentration becomes similar.
Also, it is known that the volume of brain is about 1200 ml on an average,
Volume of fluid moved because of osmosis = 20 mM / 300 mM * 1200 ml = 80 ml
Percent swelling of brain = 80 ml / 1200 ml * 100 = 6.67 %
Answer:
density-independent factor
Explanation:
density-independent factor, also called limiting factor, in ecology, any force that affects the size of a population of living things regardless of the density of the population (the number of individuals per unit area).
hope this helped!!!! have a great day!
The correct option is this: NATURAL SELECTION FAVOR G6PD DEFICIENCY AS COMPARED TO MALARIA.
As we are told in the passage given above, G6DP enzyme helps the red blood cells to function very well. So those people who lack this enzyme have red blood cells that are not functioning very well and this usually result in heamolytic aneaemia. Remember that the parasite that cause malaria normally need red blood cells to survive, thus, for people who lack G6DP malaria can not survive in their blood. Since lack of G6DP enzyme mostly occur in people of African origin where mosquitoes abound, researchers believe that the lack of G6DP enzyme in these people red blood cells is a natural selection method by which the body is preventing itself from been attacked by mosquitoes.
