The order of blood pressure in blood vessels would be letter "D. veins < capillaries < arteries". The arteries carry the blood towards the veins and has relatively thicker walls because of high pressure. The vein carry blood from capillaries back to the heart.

The order of blood pressure in major types of blood vessels from least pressure to greatest is d) veins < capillaries < arteries.

Arteries receive blood directly from the heart and the pressure of blood in arteries is very high. This is the reason why their walls are thick and elastic so that they could withstand this high blood pressure without being punctured. Arteries carry blood away from the heart towards various tissues. Arteries further distribute blood to various capillaries which have comparatively low blood pressure. Veins on the other hand are the type of blood vessels which carry blood from various tissues towards the heart. The blood pressure in the veins is lowest among all these blood vessels.

Based on this population growth graph, what can be determined about the population?
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

According to the population growth graph, what can be determined about the population is that the carry capacity is around 0.4 million.

Explanation:

The graph shows the growth curve of a rabbit population, which is increasing progressively over the years until it flattens out in 2002, which is surely related to the carrying capacity of this population, established at around 0.4 million rabbits.

<u> Carrying capacity is the maximum number of inhabitants that can be in a given place according to the space and resources available</u>. The population can increase as long as they have the necessary space and resources to support a certain number of inhabitants. When the population exceeds its carrying capacity, it experiences a decrease in growth.

<em>In the graph, the growth of the rabbit population decreased when it reached a number of inhabitants of 0.4 million.</em>
