In humans, the immediate result of a blockage in one ureter would be to decrease the amount of urine entering the bladder.

A condition which occurs as a consequence of blockage in one or both of the ureters is called ureteral obstruction.

Ureters are tubes, part of the urine system that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder.

Ureteral obstructions might be due to ureteral stones, tumors, swelling of the ureter wall.. Ureteral obstruction can cause complications such as urinary tract infections and kidney damage.

__ is to a point source of water pollution as ________ is to a nonpoint source of water pollution.
Ad libitum [116K]
The more probable answer is b: power plant effluent; golf course runoff, although a: <span>power plant effluent; an underground coal mine drain, is also a possible answer.

The source of effluent from a power plant occupies a small, well defined space, i.e. an effluent pipe. This is what is known as a point source, as you can identify with high confidence the spatial and temporal boundaries of the source of pollution. Point sources are relatively easy to quantify and manage because they are so well defined in space and time. Reducing pollution from point sources could be achieved by simply treating effluent to a higher standard or reducing the amount of effluent released. Runoff from land, such as a golf course, is what is defined as a non-point source pollutant. The spatial and temporal aspects of this sort of pollution are much harder to define, as the pathways of runoff from the land into the river may be highly dispersed and variable over time. These sorts of pollution are therefore much harder to quantify and manage.</span>

Give two examples of modified stems and explain how each example benefits the plant.
kipiarov [429]

Here I provide you some examples of modified stems:

<u>Bulb:</u> discoid stems that have a single apical bud surrounded by numerous cataphiles, and in their part I have adventitious roots. Its function is the reserve.

<u>Tuber</u>: They are portions of stems with irregular growth, which forms tuberosities due to the large accumulation of reserve substances.

<u>Cladodes: </u>are flattened stems, very thick, green leaves look alike and have photosynthetic function.

<u>Stem tendrils:</u> they are filamentous stems, which can be rolled up so that the plant can climb grasped of various objects, which is useful when the plant needs to look for the greatest possible luminosity, especially in areas where shadows predominate.

Phylloclades: Stems sheet form with limited growth, like a leaf, green and photosynthetic color.

After soaking in the vinegar, the egg’s exterior is soft and flexible. The egg is translucent, and the yolk can easily be seen u
aliina [53]

Answer:

Cell membrane/plasma membrane;

Nucleus;

Cytoplasm

Explanation:

Makena's model is synonymous with that of an animal cell.

The soft flexible putter layer of the egg can be likened to the cell membrane of an animal cell. Cell membrane, also called plasma membrane, just like the soft and flexible exterior of the egg, is a semi-permeable that serves as a barrier between the external environment of the cell and it's inner environment. It controls what goes in and out of the cell, as well as help in the selectively exchange of ions and molecules, in and out of the cell.

The yolk in Makena's model represents the nucleus of an animal cell.

Also, the surrounding area between the yolk and the exterior of the egg, represents the cytoplasm found in animal cells. The cytoplasm is filled with fluids and surrounds the nucleus.
