Answer:

Explanation:

Process of Elimination:

A is incorrect; it suggests that he has diabetes

B is incorrect; the quality of his food doesnt affect his glucose levels

C is incorrect; air quality has no correlation to his glucose levels

D is correct; diabetes ( type 2 ) is caused by unhealthy lifestyle, therefore we can assume he has a healthy lifestyle because he has no diabetes

4. What is viscosity and how is it related to blood flow?

maria [59]

Increasing evidence supports the importance of hemodynamic forces that are directly related to the work of the heart as the primary triggering event of atherosclerosis and atherothrombosis. The factors that primarily determine the work of the heart include systolic blood pressure (BP), blood viscosity, and the volume of blood the myocardium has to pump.

The relationship between BP and viscosity is such that, given a constant systolic BP, if blood viscosity increases, then the total peripheral resistance (TPR) will necessarily increase, thereby reducing blood flow. Conversely, when viscosity decreases, blood flow and perfusion will increase. Because of the dependence of systemic arterial BP on cardiac output and TPR, if blood viscosity and TPR rise, systolic BP must then increase for cardiac output to be maintained. Consequently, blood viscosity has been established as a major determinant of the work of the heart and tissue perfusion [1]. Since increased viscosity requires a higher BP to ensure the same circulating volume of blood, both the burden on the heart and the forces acting on the vessel wall are directly modulated by changes in blood viscosity.

Three important studies helped establish the relationship between blood pressure and blood viscosity. The earliest study observed 49 normal subjects and 49 patients with untreated essential hypertension, showing a direct correlation between BP and blood viscosity among both normotensive and hypertensive subjects (p<0.001). Systolic blood viscosity was 8 to 10% higher in hypertensive patients compared with normotensive controls, and diastolic blood viscosity was 16 to 28% higher in hypertensive patients. Subgroups each comprised of 25 subjects having matched hematocrits were also compared, and viscosity remained significantly higher in hypertensive subjects (p<0.05). [2]

Which of the following is a physical adaptation for the underlined animal?

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Physical adaptations do not develop during an individual animal's life, but over many generations. The shape of a bird's beak, the color of a mammal's fur, the thickness or thinness of the fur, the shape of the nose or ears are all examples of physical adaptations which help different animals survive.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS!! I'M STUCK!! PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS!! I'M STUCK!!

n200080 [17]

Explanation:

When you make the cross. You get

HH HH Hh Hh.

So the genotypic ratio - 2:2 which is also 1:1.

The phenotypic ratio - 4. Since Hh and HH are horned organisms. So they only differ in their genotypic make up.

Match the following terms and definitions. 1. an electrical nerve impulse sent by nerve fibers to the central nervous system for

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

1. an electrical nerve impulse sent by nerve fibers to the central nervous system for interpretation. Action potential.

2. neurons that detect chemicals such as those found in food. Chemoreceptors.

3. type of eyes many arthropods have; eyes that protrude outward and consist of many lenses. Compound eyes.

4. the structure that gives the response to an environmental change. Effector

5. neurons that detect electrical fields. Electroreceptors.

6. secretion of hormones into the blood stream to affect distant processes. Endocrine.

Explanation:

An action potential is a change in the internal charge of a cell due to depolarization. These changes allow the transmission of a message from any part of the body to the central nervous system. The central nervous system will interpret the message and will give a response.

There are different types of receptors in our bodies. Chemoreceptors are the ones that detect chemicals and produce an action potential or a neurotransmitter. These receptors respond to chemicals. Another type of receptor is the electroreceptors. They detect electrical fields and are only on the skin of aquatic animals.

Compound eyes have a large number of ommatidia. As a result, the anthropods with this type of eyes have a large view angle. In other words, every ommatidium sees an image, and the final product is a combination of all of them.

The effector is the structure that gives an answer once an affector has sent the message to the nervous system that there was a change in the environment.

There are different kinds of secretions, autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine. In the endocrine secretion, the gland secrets hormones into the bloodstream so that they can travel long distances up to their target cell, which is far from the gland.
