Answer:

The correct option is<em> D. Gibbons will eventually become extinct in the wild.</em>

Explanation:

The habitat where a species lives has enormous effects on the survival rate of a population. If the trees of southeast Asia are removed,the carrying capacity for Gibbons is reduced for that area. As a result, the organisms will fight for the scarce resources present in the habitat. Most of them would die due to lack of proper resources. As the carrying capacity goes on reducing, the gibbons will come to a verge of extinction i.e they will become endangered. Is the carrying capacity further reduces, then they will become extinct.

You are conducting a case control study to determine if an association exists between melanoma and indoor tanning. From a statew
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

a. Odds ratio = 1.58

b.  Inasmuch the odds ratio is greater than 1, this means that higher odds of melanoma exist in people exposed to indoor tanning, than in those not exposed to indoor tanning

Explanation:

For case  study                                                  

Let 'a'  represent the total population of people with melanomia = 696                                                      

Let 'b' represent the total number of people with melanomia exposed to indoor tanning  =  1107 – 696 = 411 people

For  control study

Let 'c' represent the total population = 1500

Let 'd' represent the total number of people not exposed to indoor tanning = 1500 - (0.428 * 1500)

                                                          =  1500 - 723

Total number of people not exposed to indoor tanning   = 777 people

                                                       

a. Odds ratio = (a/b) / (d/c) = (696/411) / (777/723)

                                                = 1.69 / 1.07 = 1.58

b. Inasmuch the odds ratio is greater than 1, this means that higher odds of melanoma exist in people exposed to indoor tanning, than in those not exposed to indoor tanning.

Given the following events involved in the regulation of blood volume, which one of the following answers best represents the or
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. decrease in blood volume

2. secretion of renin from juxtaglomerular apparatus

3. production of angiotensin II

4.  secretion of aldosterone

5. sodium reabsorbed from distal tubules and collecting ducts

Explanation:

The RAAS pathway or Renin-angiotensin II-aldosterone pathway gets activated in the human body to maintain the osmolarity and blood volume.

When the receptors in the blood sense the low volume of water in the body sends signals to the brain which activates the secretion of the renin from the juxtaglomerular cells. Renin helps converts the inactive angiotensin to angiotensin I and II which help reabsorption of sodium ions. This activates the production of aldosterone which increases the reabsorption of the sodium ions into distal and collecting ducts.
