Answer:
INVASIVE species
Explanation:
In biology, an organism is said to be INVASIVE if the organism is foreign to a particular region or habitat and possess the unpleasant ability to proliferate or grow rapidly to the point of competing with local species of organisms.
According to this question, humans are said to introduce organisms that have the ability to harm the local flora and fauna. Hence, these organisms are INVASIVE SPECIES because they are foreign to that place and cause damage in their new environment.
Answer:
different assessments of environmental factors
Explanation:
In humans, for predicting the future phenotype of any individual, the PSR is used.
A trait may be defined as the state of a character that is a distinct variation of the phenotypic characteristic of any organism.
The following factors contributes to the differences in the complex trait risk predictions in the different laboratories :
-- differing methods of the combining risk from the multiple genetic variants.
-- genotyping of the different variants.
-- selection of the different genetic variants for such risk determination.
Thus the factor which does not contribute is :
"different assessments of the environmental factors."
B. It increases a change away from a set point
Answer:
Starvation causes a reduction in the <u>oncotic</u> pressure in the <u>cappilaries</u>, thus causing edema in the tissues.
Explanation:
Starvation is the extreme form of malnutrition, in which the caloric energy intake of an individual is much lower than required. The cells of the body start the breakdown of proteins, after the fat stores get exhausted. This reduces the oncotic pressure or the colloidal pressure in the blood vessels or capillaries of the body, thereby causing edema.
Edema is a medical condition, which involves the abnormal accumulation of fluid in the interstitium and cavities of the body.
The food that is undigested and fails to break down becomes stool because it can not be used.
