Biology

Arada [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Adverse heart conditions do not occur in isolation. It is usually accompanied by other risk factors, like coronary artery dysfunction, diabetes, high blood pressure, etc.    

In addition to the above, the following factors are indicative of left-sided heart failure:

  • Shortness of breath caused by the collection of fluid in the lungs. Shortness of breath usually becomes pronounced upon physical exertion
  • An increase in the girth of the torso (mainly the abdomen) due to ascites which is the buildup of fluid in the abdomen.
  • engorged scrotum (in males of course)

Explanation:

Left-Sided Heart Failure is simply the inability of the heart to pump oxygen-rich blood into the body.

Blood filled with oxygen is moved from the lungs to the atrium on the left and then to the left ventricle. The blood is then pumped from the ventricle on the left to other parts of the body by a contracting and relaxing action. Left-sided heart failure can be classified into two:

  1. Systolic Failure and
  2. Diastolic Failure

1. Systolic Dysfunction: When the left ventricle can no longer shrink properly, the pressure with which the heart can pump enough blood into circulation is reduced.

2. Diastolic Dysfunction: This occurs when the left ventricle can no longer relax as it ought to due to the hardening of the muscle.

A marine biologist has dredged up an unknown animal from the seafloor. Describe some of the characteristics that could be used t
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The first thing to look at would be type of symmetry the organism exhibits. If it is asymmetrical then it would be a sponge and the discovery could stop right there. If not, other characteristics need to be investigated.

Knowing the type of body cavity this organism has would be helpful.

It would also be beneficial to know what type of skeleton (endo or exo) this organism has and what its appendages look like.

Finally, the type of digestive tract and the presence or absence of a head would help to determine what this creature is.

Rachael wants to test how sunlight impacts plant growth over time. She will add varying amounts of light to different sets of pl
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Independent variable: varying amounts of light

Dependent variable: plant growth

Explanation:

The variable, which are factors that can be altered, in an experiment can either be independent or dependent. An independent variable is one in which the experimenter manipulates or controls in order to bring about an outcome. For this experiment conducted by Rachel, the independent variable is the VARYING AMOUNT OF LIGHTS.

The dependent variable is the variable that responds to changes of the independent variable. In other words, the dependent variable is the outcome of manipulating the independent variable. Hence, the dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable. For Rachel's experiment, the PLANT GROWTH is the dependent variable because it is what responds to changes in amount of light (independent variable).
