Number of individuals of the species in the area. For example a school of fish requires a large amount of individuals to avoid inbreeding. A species that is very imbred is the Northern Elephant seal, having originated from a few select individuals after being nearly driving to extinction. Although these seals have made a meraculous recovery, they suffer from their inbreeding with damage to their spines and cateracts.

Which statement is true? Bronchitis can result in hoarseness. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that causes thick mucus secr
Natalka [10]

<u>Answer</u>:  Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that causes thick mucus secretions.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • <em>Cystic fibrosis</em> is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in a gene that makes a protein called CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator).
  • The CFTR protein normally functions as a channel for transport of chloride ions in cells responsible for mucus production.
  • A person suffering from cystic fibrosis produces abnormal CFTR protein or no CFTR protein at all.
  • This is the  reason that thick, sticky mucus is produced instead of the thin, watery kind.

<span>The chemical elements</span><span> can be broadly divided into </span>metals<span>, </span>metalloids<span> and </span>nonmetals<span> according to their shared </span>physical<span> and </span>chemical properties<span>.

Metalloids are metallic-looking brittle solids that are either </span>semiconductors<span> or exist in semiconducting forms, and have </span>amphoteric<span> or weakly </span>acidic oxides<span>. Typical nonmetals have a dull, coloured or colourless appearance; are </span>brittle<span> when solid; are poor conductors of heat and electricity; and have acidic oxides. Most or some elements in each category share a range of other properties; a few elements have properties that are either anomalous given their category, or otherwise extraordinary.</span>

Pick one of anna's illnesses and explain all of the ways the illness affected three different body systems.
Rudik [331]
Heart disease affects the cardiovascular system by plaque building up on the artery walls narrowing them making it harder for blood to flow through which could lead to heart attack or probably stroke if the plaque blocks it entirely or maybe almost entirely.

Heart disease may also affect our nervous system for there is higher risk to stroke and it is due to limited flow of blood to the brain and may lead to heart failure which may happen with heart disease that puts the stress on the brain and nerves.

The digestive system is affected by heart disease that causes the system to not get the right amount of oxygen and the nutrients that it needs from the blood.
