Answer:

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

As the sea turtles lay eggs on the seashore in the nests, the number of average eggs by a sea turtle are 110 eggs. However after the hatching, the sea turtle babies have to go the sea by themselves, during which most of them are killed, or eaten by different animals.

The very few who make it to the sea are than further reduced by the various marine attacking animals and thus the population is balanced.

Answer:

TRue

Explanation:

The number of eggs per nest is called a clutch and it has been seen to vary among species. Turtles that live on water can lay more than one clutch in a nesting season. In most cases, the turtles do lay over 110 eggs per nest, two to eight nests a season.

When these eggs numbering over a hundred are laid, and only a small fraction of the offspring from those eggs make it to the ocean, with a few of these ending up with offspring of their own, then overpopulation has set in.

Which of these disorders can develop in an aging person when the rate of aqueous humor production exceeds the rate of removal?
timurjin [86]
The correct answer is glaucoma. Glaucoma is a disease of the eye involving (1) increase in intraocular pressure by either overproduction of aqueous humor or block in the drainage of aqueous humor and (2) optic nerve damage.

If the glaucoma is caused by the imbalance between the production and drainage of aqueous humor, then the proper term is open angle glaucoma which is common in the elderly. Risk factors for open angle glaucoma are diabetes and hypertension.

If the glaucoma is caused by the blockage of the drainage (Canal of Schlemm and trabecular meshwork), then the proper term is acute angle closure glaucoma. Some risks factors also include advancing age and development of cataracts.
