DeShawn is studying homeostasis and circulation. To organize his findings, he constructs two models of the human heart, veins, a

nd arteries:
one to represent a non-smoker, and one that includes attributes typically found in a smoker. By comparing the two models, which relationship
of cause and effect can DeShawn best explain?
A
Contractions of the heart move blood through the circulatory system.
B. Smoking causes changes to homeostasis throughout the body.
C. Smoking damages the function of the circulatory system.
D. Blood flows in one direction only through the circulatory system.

Answer:

The correct option is C.

Explanation:

From the information given in the question, it is obvious that De-Shawn created two models of the heart in order to show the differences that exist between the heart of a smoker and that of a non smoker. Smoking is an addictive habit that has great negative effects not only on the circulatory system of smokers alone but also on the whole body system.

Smoking normally damages the functions of the circulatory system by destroying the lining of the arteries; this leads to accumulation of fatty deposits that narrow the width of the arteries. The narrow arteries will hinder blood from flowing normally and this can lead to different types  of medical conditions such as stroke, heart attack, heart failure, coronary heart diseases, etc.

People who use complex tools like plows, irrigation, and fertilizers to grow domesticated plants are called farmers, it is a large scale activity and it´s use to obtain food from the earth, we also have horticulture, does not require hundreds or thousands of acres of land, horticulture is also important, but is more limited to the domestic and individual context, and finally it is much cheaper because it is not done at large scales like the Agriculture.

In a certain plant, tall stems (t) are dominant to short stems (t). a farmer crosses a short-stemmed plant with a heterozygous l
melisa1 [442]

The answers would be:

Genotype                Phenotype

     Tt                      Tall stemmed

     tt                       Short stemmed

Genotypic ratio : 2:2 or 1:1

Phenotypic ratio: 2:2  or 1:1  

<u />

<u>You can read on to see how this was done:</u>

Tall stems (T) are dominant to short stems (t).

First figure out the genotypes of the parents. We have a short-stemmed plant and a heterozygous long-stemmed plant cross.

For short stem to occur, you need 2 pairs of short alleles. So the first parent would have a genotype of tt.

Heterozygous long-stemmed means that the parent has one of each allele. So the genotype of the second parent would be, Tt.

Now we can make our Punnett Square.

tt x Tt

<u>       t        t  </u>

<u>T |  Tt  |   Tt</u>

<u>t  |   tt  |   tt</u>

Let's list down the genotypes and phenotypic results.

Genotype        no.         Phenotype

     Tt                 2           Tall stemmed

     tt                  2           Short stemmed

So from that we can answer the other questions:

Genotypic ratio : 2:2 or 1:1

Phenotypic ratio: 2:2  or 1:1

Anatomy of the liver: an outline with three levels of complexity--a further step towards tailored territorial liver resections.
QveST [7]

Depending on the purpose for which the description is needed, there are three various levels of complexity at which the vascular architecture of the liver might be described:

  • The first level, known as the conventional level, is equivalent to Couinaud's classic 8-segment scheme and serves as a common language for doctors from other disciplines to define the location of localized hepatic lesions.
  • The true branching of the hepatic veins and the main portal pedicles is taken into consideration in the second, surgical level, which will be used for anatomical liver resections and transplantations. Modern surgical and radiological procedures may fully exploit this anatomy, but doing so involves acknowledging that the Couinaud scheme is oversimplified and examining the vascular architecture objectively.
  • The third degree of complexity, known as the academic level, is focused on the anatomist and the requirement to provide a systematization that clarifies the apparent conflicts between anatomical literature, radiological imaging, and surgical practice.
