Cane Toads are very strong and adaptable, they are also poisonous throughout its life cycle, which is why they only have a few predators and have a life span of 10-15 years. Cane toads have poison glands, and the tadpoles are extremely toxic to most animals if consumed. They are productive breeders, they only need a small pool of water of almost any nature. The female cane toads can lay 8,000 to 35,000 eggs at a time and may produce two clutches in one year. The eggs will hatch within 24-72 hours and the tadpole stage may last from three to twenty weeks. Cane toads in the tropics grow really quick and may be sexually mature only within one year. Cane toads have been introduced to many regions of the Pacific and the Caribbean islands as a method of agricultural pest control because of their ravenous appetite, however, they are now considered pests and are dangerous to humans and animals, both wild and domesticated especially to dogs.

<h2>Life-cycle - Cane Toad Population Successful </h2>

The water of any nature is essential for survival and reproduction. Cane toad can produce eggs ranges from 8,000 to 35,000 at a time. There are two conditions for healthy development which are described as follows:

The slow flowing water must be avaible for the toad.
25-30 degree C temperature is needed for healthy development.

In this way, cane toads make population successful during the life cycle.

The ____________ in the alveoli is 40 mm Hg and that of the blood entering the pulmonary capillaries is ____________ . This caus

Oxana [17]

Answer:

The PCO₂ -carbon dioxide partial pressure- in the alveoli is 40 mm Hg and that of the blood entering the pulmonary capillaries is 45 mmHg. This causes carbon dioxide to diffuse down its partial pressure gradient from the blood into the alveoli.

Explanation:

Gas exchange is a physiological process that involves the entry of oxygen into the body and tissues and the exit of carbon dioxide, a product of metabolic reactions.

At the pulmonary level, gas exchange occurs between the alveoli and the alveolar capillary, and the diffusion of gases across the alveolar-capillary barrier is dependent on a pressure gradient due to the partial pressure of gases.

In the case of CO₂ the diffusion goes from where the partial pressure is higher to where it is lower, i.e. from the alveolar capillary, where the PCO₂ is 45 mmHg, to the pulmonary alveolus, where the PCO₂ is 40 mmHg.

The hormone levels during the menstrual cycle are shown below.what would happen if the hormone levels did not have their peak ju

Vesna [10]

During week 2 of the menstrual cycle (day 8 to day 14 or ovulation), estrogen levels rise until it reaches its peak. Typically, days 12-14 have the highest levels of estrogen, which causes an increase in Luteinizing Hormone, which is responsible for the release of the egg cell. If hormone levels fail to reach its peak before day 14, ovulation is not possible because the egg cannot be released. Pregnancy may be highly unlikely.

Cancerous tumors are divided into broad groups on the basis of the particular type of tissue from which the tumor cells arise. this is called histogenesis.
Tumors are of different types, some are cancerous and some are benign (non-cancerous). In a disease of cancer, there is an abnormal cell growth. It is characterized as out of control cell growth.
