a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one, thus equalizing the concentrations on each side of the membran.
Answer:
a. Decrease water reabsorption
: decrease blood pressure.
b. Decrease peripheral resistance
: decrease blood pressure
c. Vasodilation
: decrease blood pressure
d. Decrease salt intake
: decrease blood pressure
e. Decrease blood volume
: decrease blood pressure
f. Vasoconstriction
: increase blood pressure
g. Increase peripheral resistance: increase blood pressure
h. Increase salt intake: increase blood pressure
i. Increase blood volume
: increase blood pressure
j. Increase water reabsorption: increase blood pressure
Explanation:
- Total peripheral resistance: This term refers to the resistance offered by the vascular system to the blood flow. This resistance is a result of the friction between the blood and the vessel's walls. In other words, it is the opposition of the vessels to blood flow. The total peripheral resistance is the summary of all the bloody circuit resistances in the body. Those mechanisms that induce vasoconstriction conduce to an increase in total peripheral resistance, while mechanisms that induce vasodilation provoke a decrease in total peripheral resistance.
- Blood pressure: This term refers to the strength applied by the blood against the vessel walls as it flows. This pressure is determined by the bombed blood strength and the volume as well as by the vessel size and flexibility. Blood pressure changes continuously according to the activity, temperature, diet, emotional state, among others.
- Salt ingestion causes an increase in plasmatic osmolarity, stimulates thirst, and hence, water ingestion. Sodium retains water, expanding the blood volume and causing an increase in vessel pressure.
- The antidiuretic hormone, also known as vasopressin hormone, is released by changes in serum osmolarity or blood volume. Its function is to keep homeostasis and make kidneys conserve or keep water by concentrating urine and by reducing its volume. By these actions, the antidiuretic hormone stimulates water reabsorption, according to the organism´s needs.
- Kidneys control blood pressure in many ways. If the pressure is elevated, kidneys produce the loss of salt and water, normalizing arterial pressure. But if pressure is low, kidneys conserve water.
1. theyre opposite because during photosynthesis CO2 is absorbed by plants and during respiration CO2 is emitted.
2. glucose is made during photosynthesis and serves as food for every (!) animal, and animals decompose glucose to CO2 during cellular respiration.
An element have the same number of protons as electrons.
Therefore: if an element x (Lawrencium) has 103 protons, it has 103 electrons.
Answer:
The correct answer is: Yes, this is an example of Reproductive Isolation.
Explanation:
- Reproductive Isolation can be defined as the mechanism adopted by different species during the course of their evolution, due to which the individuals belonging to different species are incapable of mating with each other and producing viable offspring.
- The given question is an example of Mechanical, Pre-zygotic Reproductive Isolation.
- Prezygotic Isolation refers to the mechanism adopted by individuals of different species during the course of evolution such that successful fertilisation of gametes from individuals of different species never occur, hence a viable zygote is never formed.
- Mechanical Isolation refers to the mechanism adopted by individuals of different species during the course of evolution such that their reproductive organs or the organs that assist in the process of reproduction are incompatible to each other. Hence, the gametes of each species are unable to come in vicinity of each other.
- Here, the pollen grain from the flower of one species of juniper is unable to form the pollen tube when its sits on the stigma of the flower of another species of juniper. This is an example of Mechanical Isolation.
