Which of the following is not normally filtered out of the blood in the kidney?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Your kidneys also remove acid that is produced by the cells of your body and maintain a healthy balance of water, salts, and minerals—such as sodium, calcium, phosphorus, and potassium—in your blood. Without this balance, nerves, muscles, and other tissues in your body may not work normally.

Explain how the use of a chemical designed to kill grasshoppers could reduce the population of peregrine falcons.
Butoxors [25]
Peregrine falcons have a wide diet, including many types of smaller birds. These birds eat bugs like grasshoppers. So, if the grasshopper population decreases, then the birds who are a food source to peregrine falcons will also have a lower population. This means that there is a lesser amount of food for the peregrine falcons to eat, so their population will decrease as well. 

Good luck with your problems!
