Biology
1 answer:
Leya [2.2K]3 years ago

Answer:

Answer is C.

Explanation:

A. The vessel length is pretty much constant. The body can't length or shorten blood vessels.

B. Blood viscosity is also fairly constant because the composition of blood cannot change quickly enough to change resistance as needed.

C. This is the main way resistance is controlled. The smooth muscle surrounding blood vessels can rapidly respond to hormonal or metabolic stimuli and contract/relax to adjust diameter.

D. Again, temperature is fairly constant in the body and would not be a good way to alter resistance.

Three of the most prominent definitions of species are the biological species concept, the phylogenetic species concept, and the
soldier1979 [14.2K]
We must first define these three prominent definitions of species. Biological species concept means that organisms resemble each other because of genes being passed from parent to offspring. Phylogenetic species concept means that organisms resemble each other because they evolved from a common ancestor. Lastly, morphological species concept characterizes species on the structure of their body parts rather than genetic or phylogeny. 

In this case, (1) biological species concept is not applicable for extinct species, (2) phylogenetic species concept is based on evolutionary history, (3) morphological species concept relies on similarities in structure, (4) Morphological and phylogenetic species concept accommodates asexual reproduction, and lastly (5) all species concepts are used by scientists in classification.

Glut injection site​
Arturiano [62]

To find the correct location for injecting into the Gluteus maximus muscle, expose the buttocks and divide (in your mind) each buttock into four parts. Aim the injection into the upper quarter of the buttock (X on the diagram), towards the hip bone portion but below the iliac crest which is the bony part of the hip.
