Answer:

Pain and lowers the sensitivity to heat and cold.

Explanation:

Atherosclerosis leads to serious problems, lowers the sensitivity to heat and cold and increasing your risk of burns due to narrowing of arteries which decrease the flow of blood to the lower region of the body. We know that our organs needs blood to function properly so this decrease in the flow of blood leads to starvation of the muscles and other tissues in the lower body. Poor circulation of blood to lower region can cause pain in the legs.

<span>Body fat directly influences total body water. The influence of age, gender and fitness is also relative. Women and older persons tend to be lower on total boy water because they have lower fat free masses. Athletes tend to have higher total body water, therefore a younger athletic male would have the highest.</span>

Osmosis and tonicity
Sergio039 [100]

The blood cells likely placed in a "hypotonic solution".

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

When human blood cells are immersed in a solution with a low concentration of solute than is present in cells, osmosis allows water to pass through the cells, allowing the cells to get swollen; such a fluid is hypotonic to the cells. But when held in a solution with a greater concentration of solute, osmosis allows water to pass out of the cell, the cell is smaller and crenated in form; then a solution is hypertonic to the cells.

Healthcare facilities preserve human blood cells in a plasma solution that has the proper salt and protein ratios. Such solution is formulated to be mildly hypertonic to the red cells, thus maintaining the integrity of the cells and avoiding hemolysis.

GaryK [48]

Answer:

Wild boars have successfully established in areas with warm climates.

Explanation:

As you can see in the description of the map shown in the question above, wild boar, although an invasive species in the USA, settled more easily in Texas, California and Florida, and along the southern notes, which are regions that usually have a climate hot most of the year. This means that wild boars have greater affinities with warm climate regions within the country.

An invasive species is one that is taken to a region where it does not occur naturally. These species can become real pests if the invaded environment does not have natural predators that limit their multiplication.

natta225 [31]
In simple terms, there are 4 categories of protists in basic biology characterized by their type of locomotion.

Locomotion by pseudopods or "false feet" is characteristic of ameobas (i.e. <em>Entamoeba histolytica</em>). Locomotion by papillary projections from the cell membrane called "cilia" is characteristic of <em>Paramecium </em>species. Locomotion by whip-like structures that propel the organism called "flagella" is characteristic of <em>Euglena </em>species. 
<em />
Lastly, protists that do not have locomotive organelles are exemplified by <em>Plasmodium </em>species, the etiologic agent of malaria.
