Answer:

Reasons why Maria will have tissue ischemia:

1. Because of evident problems with her blood circulation, this means insuficent blood flow. This shows in the edema she has.

2. The ischemia can lead to hypoxia because of the lack of oxygen in the blood stream to reach to the tissue cells.

Explanation:

Ischemia is a health problem characterized by the lack of oxygen that the bloods transports to the tissues in the body.

Hypoxia is related to the unsuficient oxigen supply gettin to a certain regions of the body or to the entire body.

An enlarged heart is not really a condition but a sign/symptom of a disease.tissue ischeamia on the other hand is a cause.

The major relationship between the two is that tissue ischeamia results in an enlarged heart example ;cardiomyopathy.

Reason why she would have a tissue ischeamia is due to poor circulation and then the edema.

These two reasons will prevent tissue cells from getting required oxygen thus bringing about hypoxia and subsequently ischemia.

A desert plant called Kalanchoe can reproduce, either with sexual reproduction through flowers, or asexually by budding off mini
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- will be called "Clones" with no genetic variation thus result in less adaptability to environment.

Explanation:

Plants can reproduce by both modes of reproduction called asexual and sexual reproduction.   The asexual mode of reproduction produces genetically similar offsprings in less period of time and thus helps in spreading of the species in minimum time as in the case of Kalanchoe.

The Kalanchoe can dominate a large area of the habitat using this mode of reproduction but at the cost of genetic variation.  

Since asexual reproduction results in Clones with same genetic material so the descendants of the plant will be less adaptive to changing the environment as asexual reproduction does not involve genes.
