Answer:

The situation in which some individuals have greater reproductive success than other individuals in a population. Along with variation and heritability, it is one of the three conditions necessary for evolution by natural selection.

There are so many factors that contributed to this over time, reproductive success differs and it could be attributed to hereditary and variation as well. Most often, the hereditary plays the most role out of all as the viability of both eggs and sperms could have been inherited from parents or being affected as a result of environmental factor or nutrition or other factors.

For instance, if one has a rhesus factor of negative and went ahead to marry another male counterpart with negative rhesus factor, this sedomly leads to miscarriage which could have been controlled had it been they were thoroughly counseled. Furthermore, physical factor such as accident could damage one spermatical vessicles that houses the sperm cells which render such an individual to be unable to donate a viable sperm cell for reproduction.

Those with high rate of reproductive success thrives as result of having many offspring which increases their chances of having more offspring than those with little success rate.

Which feedback mechanism is used to regulate blood glucose?

</span>The glands which get involved are the pancreas and adrenal glands.</span><span> During increase in blood sugar, the pancreas secretes insulin, a hormone produced by the beta cells of the pancreas. Insulin causes red blood cells, muscle cells and fat cell to absorb sugar from the blood.</span><span>During decrease of blood sugar, the pancreas secretes  glucagon, a hormone produced by the alpha cells of the pancreas. Glucagon causes the liver to release the glucose stored in its cells.</span><span>The Adrenal gland secretes cortisol during times of low blood sugar levels.  Cortisol promotes the use of fatty acids to provide energy for working muscles, rather than using glucose.</span>

How do structures and functions of organisms vary in different kingdoms????
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

With millions of different kinds of organisms in the world, scientists must find order in all of this diversity. Scientists group living organisms into one or more of a few major categories as part discipline known as taxonomy. The bodies of organisms are organized into functional systems—cells are organized into tissues, and tissues are organized into organs. Body systems carry out critical functions, such as locomotion, reproduction, digestion, and circulation. All living things on Earth are composed of the same carbon-based, molecular building blocks.

Why is the lower epidermis of zebrina a complex tissue
NemiM [27]
This is just an educated guess. As the purple pigment, caused by anthocyanins, are on the bottom side of the plant, their purpose could probably be to direct the light. Specifically, a purple pigment on the bottom of the plant would absorb certain wavelengths near the purple spectrum, and reflect other wavelengths back toward the portion of the plant with chlorophyll. In this way, light does not simply pass through the leaf, instead it is reflected back in towards the chlorophyll to maximize the amount of light being used for photosynthesis.

: Which of the following is not a sign of sepsis? Which of the following is not a sign of sepsis? increased white blood cell cou
natka813 [3]

Answer: The correct answer to the question is DILATED PUPILS.

DILATED PUPILS is not a sign of sepsis.

Explanation: Sepsis can be defined as the way our body system respond to infection or invasion of a foreign body into the body system.(usually bacterial infection)

When Sepsis becomes severe,it is injurious to organs of the body(affects their function in a negative way).

Sepsis occurs when the body's immune system tends to fight infection in the body by the release of certain chemicals(cytokines and prostaglandins),the body instead of reacting in a coordinated manner to these chemicals rather reacts out of proportion to these chemicals released to fight infection and this will lead damage to organs of the body system.

Sepsis is characterised by Fever(above 101°F (38.3°C) or below 96.8°F (36°C), increased in respiratory rate (more than 20 breaths per minute), Increased heart rate (more than 90 beats per minute),increased white blood cell count,low blood pressure and mental confusion.

Treatment of Sepsis includes the administration of antibiotics and intravenous fluid, administration of drugs to support blood pressure and administration of steroids.
