Answer:

Approximately 25 arteries would branch off

Explanation:

Aorta has a diameter of 2 cm, so area is pi x 1^2 = 3.142

In case of the artery, pi x 0.2^2 = 0.126

So dividing total area of aorta by total area of one artery, we get 3.142/0.126 = 25.021

Hence, about 25 arteries will be needed to carry the amount of blood that flows in the aorta vessel.

When lemming populations decline, populations of Arctic foxes also decrease. The limiting factor on the population of Arctic fox
kolbaska11 [484]

The limiting factor on the population of Arctic foxes is density-dependent. In population ecology, density-dependent processes happen when population growth rates are regulated by the density of a population. Density-dependent factors are factors where the effects on the size or growth of a population vary with the density of the population itself.
