The statement above is FALSE.
Glomerular filtration is the process by which the kidneys filter the blood by removing excess wastes and fluid. Glomerular filteration rate [GFR] is a measure of how well the blood is filtereed by the kidney. If the value of a GFR test is too low that indicates that the kidney is not working well. <span />
Between 1962 and 1971, the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) channeled the Kissimmee River and created a 30-foot deep, 300-foot wide, 56 mile long drainage canal (C-38). This project converted 44% of the floodplain to pasture, draining approximately 31,000 acres of wetlands. Before channelization, the River was a haven for wildlife, including at least 39 species of fish and 38 species of water birds.
Kissimmee River Restoration began in 1992 and has been the most successful ecosystem restoration initiative to date. By re-channelizing the River to replicate its natural paths, birds and other wildlife responded more quickly than anticipated and demonstrated the resiliency of nature. This success has been used all over the world to justify the value of ecosystem restoration. When Kissimmee River Restoration is completed in 2015, more than 40 square miles of the River-floodplain ecosystem will be restored, including almost 20,000 acres of wetlands and 44 miles of historic river channel.

Oviparity is a mode of reproduction in which young, developed in fertilized eggs, laid outside the mother's body. This mode of reproduction is found in most reptiles and all birds.
Viviparity means that their young develop inside the mother's body and are born alive. This is the mode of most mammals.
<span>Ovoviviparity is similar to viviparity in that there is internal fertilization and the young ones are born alive but differ in that there is no placental connection, the young are fed by egg yolk. This is found i</span><span>n </span><span>seahorses, for example.</span>
