Answer:

The exponential growth model shows a characteristic curve which is J-shaped while the logistic grown model shows a characteristic curve which is S-shaped.

The exponential growth model is applicable to any population which doesn’t have a limit for growth. The logistic growth model is applicable to any population which comes to a carrying capacity.

The exponential growth model typically results in an explosion of the population. The logistic growth model results in a relatively constant rate of population growth. This happens when the growth rate of the population arrives at its carrying capacity.

Exponential growth is ideal for populations that have unlimited resources and space – such as bacterial cultures. Logistic growth is more realistic and can be applied to different populations which exist in the planet.

The exponential growth model doesn’t have any upper limit. The logistic growth model has and upper limit, which is the carrying capacity.

Exponential growth happens when the rate of growth is in proportion to the existing amounts. This is also true for logistic growth but the difference is, it also includes competition and resources which are limited.

ANSWER: MITRAL VALVE STENOSIS

EXPLANATION:

The child have the risk of having MITRAL VALVE STENOSIS. It is also referred to as mitral stenosis.

Mitral valve stenosis occurs as results of the mitral valve opening narrowing. Which effect to less blood flowing through it.

The mitral valve is located between two chambers (the atrium and the ventricle) on the left side of your heart.

However, Mitral valve stenosis can lead to different health issues, including blood clots, difficulty breathing, fatigue, and heart failure.

Mitral valve stenosis is specifically caused by rheumatic fever (a childhood disease). This rheumatic fever occurs has a result of the body's immune response to an infection associated with the streptococcal bacteria.

Acute rheumatic fever affects the joints and the heart greatly. It causes joints inflammation temporarily and in severe case causes chronic disability.

Nevertheless, this cardiac complication have treatment and it is based on whether the affected individuals shows symptoms. Medications like blood thinners or anticoagulants (to reduce the risk of blood clots), diuretics, antiarrhythmics (to cure abnormal heart rhythms), beta-blockers (to slow your heart) etc, are being administered based on the level of the complication.

Which of these substances does not protect against invaders in the nonspecific immune response

nirvana33 [79]

B: Antigens

Explanation: Antigens itself are the invaders that causes an infection or a disease in living organism. They do not protect against invaders in non-specific response as they themselves are the ones who are invading the body.

Digestive enzymes are the enzymes that act on a particular substrate for its action at a particular PH.

Stomach acid is the hydrochloric acid that keeps the PH of the stomach low and prevents the growth of unwanted pathogens.

Lysosomes have digestive enzymes in it. It performs the process of phagocytosis.

Why do the walls of the capillaries and air sacs have to be thin

dmitriy555 [2]

The alveoli are lined with mucus and are surrounded by a network of blood capillaries. They have very thin walls for gases to be absorbed through.Carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the alveoli.
