Answer:

Impact.

Explanation:

Science can be defined as a branch of intellectual and practical study which systematically observe a body of fact in relation to the structure and behavior of non-living and living organisms (animals, plants and humans) in the natural world through experiments.

In Science, the study of blood is generally referred to as serology.

Impact refers to how fast blood traveled from its source to where it landed.

This ultimately implies that, an impact is a measure of the rate at which blood travels from its source to where it lands. The four (4) phases of impact includes;

I. Displacement.

II. Retraction.

III. Contact and collapse.

IV. Dispersion.

In Human anatomy, cardiac cycle can be defined as a complete heartbeat of the human heart which comprises of sequential alternating contraction and relaxation of the atria and ventricles, therefore causing blood to flow unidirectionally (one direction) throughout the human body.

Generally, the cardiac cycle occurs in two (2) stages;

Diastole : in this stage, the ventricles is relaxed and would be filled with blood.

Systole: at this stage, the muscles contracts and thus, allow blood to be pushed through the atria.

Generally, the right atrioventricular valve (AV) is also referred to as the tricuspid valve and is located on the right dorsal side of the human heart. The right atrioventricular valve (AV) comprises of three (3) leaflets (flaps) which opens and closes in order to allow for the flow of blood from the right atrium of the human heart to the right ventricle. Also, the right atrioventricular valve is saddled with the responsibility of preventing blood from flowing backward in the mammalian heart.

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

D. Selection has led to decreases in the size of fish at the age of reproductive maturity.

Explanation:

The larger body size of the fishes is not an adaptive trait as it reduces the survival chances of these fishes. The process of natural selection tends to increase the frequency of the traits that increase the survival fitness of the organisms. Here, the fishes with smaller body size at the reproductive age have greater chances of survival and would reproduce more to leave more progeny. Over the generations, the selection pressure would increase the proportion of fishes that are smaller during reproductive age.

lord [1]

Answer: Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

The forests and phytoplankton are carbon sinks, which absorbs the green house gas carbon dioxide from the atmosphere for photosynthesis. The carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and water are used as reactant in photosynthesis to yield carbohydrates and oxygen as products. Thus the carbon dioxide level in atmosphere decreases. This is necessary for controlling pollution in the environment and reducing the environmental temperature as carbon dioxide can make the environment warm.
