Energy is transferred with 90 percent less than the previous amount. For instance, producers start with 100 percent of energy considering they, well, produce the energy. Then, an herbivore comes and eats said producer, but only receives 10 percent of the energy. And so on and so forth as energy decreases as more consumers come along, which is why those at the top of the food web/chain typically eat more.

changes in blood pressure, heart rate, and blood profile in mares during the last 3 months of gestation and the peripartum perio

Scrat [10]

Warmblood mares that were pregnant (n = 10) had their peripartum alterations in blood pressure, heart rate, complete blood count, plasma electrolyte concentrations, and heart rate variability (HRV) assessed.

<h3>What is Gestation ?</h3>

The time during which an embryo, and eventually a fetus, develops inside viviparous animals is known as the gestational period. Although certain non-mammals also experience it, it is usual for mammals. When mammals are pregnant, they may have one or more gestations concurrently, as in the case of multiple births.

<h3>What is peripartum period ?</h3>

The time just prior to, during, and soon following childbirth.

Everyone agrees that the postpartum period starts when the baby is born. Although the end is less well defined, it is sometimes thought to occur six to eight weeks after delivery because by then the effects of pregnancy on many systems have essentially gone back to their pre-pregnancy states.

What property of the DNA molecule explains the necessity for Okazaki fragments? DNA is antiparallel. DNA is a linear molecule. D

Arada [10]

Answer:DNA is antiparallel.

Explanation: DNA is a double stranded helix in which the two strands are antiparallel. Being antiparallel means that as one strand runs from 5'->3' direction, the other strand runs from 3'->5' direction. During DNA each of the two strands serves as a template for a new complementary strand. The synthesis of a new DNA strand is always in the 5'->3' direction, therefore one strand is synthesized continuously in the direction of the replication fork while the other strand is synthesized discontinuously in the direction opposite to the replication fork in short fragments called the Okazaki fragments. The strand that is synthesized continuously is called the leading strand while the strand that is synthesized discontinuously in Okazaki fragments is called the lagging strand.
