In spherocytosis, there is a defect in the membrane proteins of the red blood cells, specifically ankyrin and spectrin. These membrane proteins contribute to the biconcave shape of red blood cells therefore the loss of these proteins will lead the red blood cells to lose its biconcave shape--leading to abnormally shaped red blood cells (spheres) hence the name. This can lead to premature destruction of red blood cells and jaundice due to hyperbilirubinemia. Spherocytes do not hold oxygen and carbon dioxide well as spherocytes have a decreased surface area.
There are both physical and biological limiting factors found in nature.
-Physical factors (abiotic factors) include temperature, water availability, oxygen, salinity, light, food and nutrients.
-Biological factors (biotic factors) involve interactions between organisms such as predation, competition, parasitism and
herbivory.
Whales have horizontally positioned tales opposed to fish and they swim in an up and down type of motion to move, where as fish are the exact opposite flexing and turning their body left and right with their vertical tale to move.
Whales have bigger mouths to eat large schools of krill (their main source of food)
And also, whales are mammals, and breathe with their lungs, whereas fish use gills to breathe underwater. I hope this helped! Please mark Brainliest!
