Explain how diffusion restored homeostasis during the dialysis treatment.

Biology
1 answer:
ch4aika [34]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

By maintaining amount of ions in the blood.

Countercurrent flow met the goals due to difference in concentration gradient.

Explanation:

Diffusion restored homeostasis during the dialysis treatment because during dialysis, the concentration of ion in the blood is maintained that leads to homeostasis.

Countercurrent flow met the goals because it flows in opposite direction while on the other hand, parallel flow did not meet the goals because it flows in the same direction. For example. the blood flows in one direction and the dialysate flows in the opposite direction. The countercurrent flow of the blood and dialysate increases the concentration gradient between the blood and dialysate. The increased gradient helps to remove more potassium, phosphorus and urea from the blood. If we used parallel flow so less  concentration gradient of solutes is present and hence, less potassium, phosphorus and urea are removed from the blood

Dvinal [7]

Answer:. A novel fungal infection could spread to colonies and cause dramatic population crashes, as seen in the comparative study

Explanation:

fungal diseases of wildlife, amphibian chytridiomycosis and bat white-nose syndrome are diseases in bat that have emerged rapidly and unexpectedly over the past several decades.

These diseases have lead to unprecedented local and global decrease in population of amphibian and bat species the infection colonize their territory and pose serious threats to biodiversity and ecosystem stability due to loss of many of them.

How the seedling continues to growth without cotyledon<br>​
Lesechka [4]
Growth of the plumule does not occur until the cotyledons have grown above ground. This is epigeal germination. ... These seeds develop by the plumule growing up through the soil with the cotyledons remaining below the surface. This is known as hypogeal germination.
