The rabbits had no natural predators  in Australia.

Explanation:

  • 'The rabbits were affected by many limiting factors.' This could not be a possibility because the limiting factors have a negative impact on growth rate of population. The limiting factors hinder the growth of population so if there were too many limiting factors affecting the rabbit, then the growth in population was not possible.
  • The rabbits reproduced by asexual reproduction. Rabbits are mammals and it is a known fact that they reproduce sexually. Thus this option is not possible.
  • The rabbits were unable to adapt to the environment If the rabbits were not adapted to the environment then they must not have survived efficiently in Australia. Hence, this is not a possibility.
  • Thus, the only possibility that remains is that , The rabbits had no natural predators in Australia' Otherwise, the predators would have preyed upon the Rabbits and there population must not have increased in this rate.

If the bicuspid (mitral) valve is not fully closing, does pulmonary circulation increase, decrease, or not change?

It will decrees because required volume of blood will not be   emptied into the pulmonary circulation  to reach the lung for oxygenation. Rather blood flows back into the  Right  atrium ,(regurgitation,) through the these valves   during ventricular contraction ( systole)of the Right Ventricle instead to the pulmonary circulation which  reduces blood flow leading  to volume overload  in  the heart. Eventually this  affects systemic circulation,

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:To realize the intended benefits of a major change, the people affected must possess sufficient energy for the adaptation process to unfold. The capacity to adapt involves the mental, emotional, and physical means to incorporate new mindsets and behaviors—to absorb the key implications of a change.
