What are the two circuits of the cardiovascular system? What does it mean to say that the cardiovascular system is a closed syst

em? What would happen if there was less blood pumped to the systemic circuit than the pulmonary circuit?

Answer:

The two circuits of the cardiovascular system are: Pulmonary Circuit and Systematic Circuit. The pulmonary circuit is shorter than the systemic and is responsible for carrying deoxygenated blood to the lungs from the right atrium, for oxygenation. The systemic circuit is longer and leaves the aortic artery, carrying oxygenated blood throughout the body and nutrients for survival. If less blood were pumped into the systemic circuit, this amount would not be sufficient to compensate for the organism's needs, with the corresponding consequences that this would entail.  

It is said that the cardiovascular system is a closed system because blood travels inside a network of blood vessels without leaving them.

How might adding trees, other plants, and phytoplankton to the biosphere impact global climate change?
astraxan [27]

Answer:

B) The biosphere will absorb carbon dioxide, and the temperature of the atmosphere may decrease or the warming of the atmosphere will slow.

Explanation:

The Climate is constantly influenced by changes caused by the increase in global temperature called Global Warming. Global warming is caused by the emission of green house gases which includes carbondioxide (CO2). Hence, one way to prevent the climate from further deterioration is to find a way of removing gases like CO2 from the atmosphere.

Plants like trees and phytoplanktons like algae are photosynthetic organisms. This means they have the ability to perform the process of photosynthesis, which is the usage of light energy from sun to synthesize food in form of organic molecules (glucose) from an inorganic source. The inorganic source is Carbondioxide (CO2). Plants take in CO2 via the stomata on their leaves. Carbondioxide is a vital raw material for photosynthesis, hence, the photosynthetic process helps remove Carbondioxide from the atmosphere.

If trees, other plants, and phytoplankton are added to the biosphere, they will perform photosynthesis and absorb a good amount of Carbondioxide (CO2), which contributes to global warming, from the atmosphere. Hence, the temperature or warming of the atmosphere caused by global warming will decrease.

A support column in the shape of a frustum of a right circular cone has a slant height of 15.25 feet. The smaller base is 12.00
muminat

According to the given statement The volume in cubic feet rounded to 3 significant digit is 4022.34 cu ft.

<h3>What is volume and example?</h3>

The capacity of an object is measured by its volume. For instance, a cup's capacity is stated to be 100 ml if it can hold 100 ml of water in its brim. The quantity of space occupied by a three-dimensional object can also be used to describe volume.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

Slant height = 15.25 feet=2196 inch

Smaller base diameter is = 12.00 inches   r = D/2 = 6 inch

Larger base diameter is  = 24.00 inches  r = D/2 = 12 inch

h = √s² - (r_1 - r_2)²

h = √(2196)² - (12 - 6)²

h = 2195.99

V = 1/3π h(R² + r² + Rr)

V = 1/3 * 3.14 * 2195.99 (144 + 36 + 72)

V = 579216.96 inch

V = 579216/144 = 4022.34 cu ft.
