Answer:
Since the beginning of life of the first multicellular organisms, the preservation of a physiologic milieu for every cell in the organism has been a critical requirement. A particular range of osmolality of the body fluids is essential for the maintenance of cell volume. In humans the stability of electrolyte concentrations and their resulting osmolality in the body fluids is the consequence of complex interactions between cell membrane functions, hormonal control, thirst, and controlled kidney excretion of fluid and solutes. Knowledge of these mechanisms, of the biochemical principles of osmolality, and of the relevant situations occurring in disease is of importance to every physician. This comprehensive review summarizes the major facts on osmolality, its relation to electrolytes and other solutes, and its relevance in physiology and in disease states with a focus on dialysis-related considerations.
Answer:
independent variable: the different amount of water
Explanation:
The independent variable would be the <u>different amount of water supplied to the pea plant clones.</u>
<em>The independent variable is the variable inputted by the researcher during an experiment whose value directly affects the dependent variable. It is the variable that is manipulated during experiments in order to see the kind of effects they produce on another variable - the dependent variable.</em>
In this case, <u>the amount of water supplied to each pea plant would directly affect the height of the pea plants.</u> Hence, the amount of water supplied to the pea plants is the independent variable while the height of the plants is the dependent variable.
The correct answer of the given question above is option A. The line of defense that his immune system is exhibiting in this situation is the first line of defense. The first line of defense includes the physical or external line of defense of the body that are responsible for inhibiting of the entry of foreign microorganisms. Such include the skin, tears, cilia, mucus, urine flow and even stomach acid.
I would think the answer is B.) All species share a common ancestor and that change occurs through time.
