Answer:

(a) <em>Total peripheral resistance</em>: (2) the amount of friction blood encounters during flow through blood vessels.

(b) <em>Blood pressure</em>: (4) the force of the blood against the vessel wall.

(c) <em>Cardiac output</em>: (1) the volume of blood pumped out by one ventricle each minute.

(d) <em>Blood viscosity</em>: (3) the friction red blood cells encounter when moving past each other.

Explanation:

  • <u>Total peripheral resistance</u>: This term refers to the resistance offered by the vascular system to the blood flow.  This resistance is a result of the friction between the blood and the vessel's walls. In other words, it is the opposition of the vessels to blood flow. T<em>he total peripheral resistance is the summary of all the bloody circuit resistances in the body</em>. Those mechanisms that induce <u><em>vasoconstriction</em></u> conduce to an i<em>ncrease in total peripheral resistance</em>, while mechanisms that induce <u><em>vasodilation</em></u> provoke a <em>decrease in total peripheral resistance</em>.
  • <u>Blood pressure</u>: This term refers to the strength applied by the blood against the vessel walls as it flows.  This pressure is determined by the bombed blood strength and the volume as well as by the vessel size and flexibility. Blood pressure changes continuously according to the activity, temperature, diet, emotional state, among others.
  • <u>Cardiac output</u>: Volume of blood that is pumped by the heart per unit of time. The cardiac output depends on the volume of blood pumped by a ventricle by beat.
  • <u>Blood viscosity</u>: It is a resistance measurement to flow. The blood viscosity increases as the number of blood cells increase. <em>The more viscose is the blood, the more resistance to movement it is, and the more blood pressure it requires to flow through vessels</em>. Blood viscosity might be dangerous as it might cause uncontrolled coagulation.

<u>Answer</u>: predator and prey

<u>Explanation</u>:

The described graph illustrates the cycle of a predator and prey population.  The population curves for predator and prey are not synchronized with each other and their amplitudes differ.

Changes in the prey population will not result in immediate or exactly identical changes in the predator population.

In the attached image, the red line represents the prey population and the blue the predator population. As it can be observed, when the prey population increases in size, the predator population size increases too.

However, this increase is not of the same size and is delayed in time. The predator population will continue to increase even though the prey population has started to decrease.

This has to do with the fact that the adult predators mated and gave birth when the food availability was still high. However, these new young individuals will not survive and reproduce due to decreasing prey. As the prey continues to decrease, more and more predators will perish.

The same cycle will then repeat over and over again.
