The right answer is: aorta to smaller systemic arteries to systemic capillaries to systemic veins to right atrium through the tricuspid valve.
The blood pathway is divided into two circuits, both beginning and ending in the heart.
- Systemic circulation (or general circulation, or "circulation")
It begins in the left ventricle, which through an artery distributes oxygenated blood to organs. Then the blood returns to the right heart (right atrium) through the cellar veins.
Each organ has an afferent vessel, supplying blood, and an efferent vessel carrying non-oxygenated blood.
- The pulmonary circulation (or "small circulation")
It begins in the right ventricle, from where the pulmonary artery sends blood without hematosis to a single organ, the lung. The blood is then oxygenated and returns to the left heart (left atrium) by the pulmonary veins.
The natural succession of a small farm pond will tend to make the pond more likely to freeze solid in winter time,the nature of things helps them to merge more quickly and adapt to their environment.
Answer: True
Explanation:
The dual energy x-ray absorptimetry is a technique that is used for measuring the bone mineral density. This technique utilizes the two X-ray beams with different levels of energy. The soft tissues are subtracted in this procedure and the beam is absorbed by the bone. This technique is useful for diagnosis of osteoporosis, to check and diagnose the infected, fractured and healing bones.
Fluid retention is a condition in which excess fluid due to capillary leakage or any other reason fills up inside the circulatory system, body tissues and cavities. The following symptoms will appear:
Discolored skin, aches and tenderness in the limbs, stiffness in joints and weight gain.
The retained excess fluid may react with the X-ray beam hence, will interfere in the process of diagnosis. Thus caution should be taken for such individuals.
Answer:
Cool water at the surface traps nutrients deep in the lake to provide food during the winter.
Explanation:
During winter, <u>ice forms on the surface of the lake</u> when the temperature drops below 4 degrees Celsius. However, the <u>water below remains warm</u> because the ice layer on top also acts as insulation of heat transfer in case of further temperature drops. Further, ice formation <u>retains/seals off</u> nutrients and gases flow below the ice sheet. The amount of nutrients is sufficient for phytoplankton activity during light hours (there is no complete darkness even after thick ice sheet is formed). Resultantly, the <u>photosynthesis</u> produces <u>oxygen and food</u> for aquatic organsism within the lake environment and support their <u>survival during winter season</u>.
