Answer: Blood pressure is highest in the arteries near the heart.

Explanation: In the arteries, the hydrostatic pressure near the heart is very high while in the case of arterioles the rate of flow reduces (but pressure increases) as the openings of the arterioles become narrow. Thus these two tubules have thick muscular walls. While the veins and venules have lower pressure and thus their walls are also thin and less muscular.

What features of integrated pest management make it a good approach to preserving ecosystems?
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Allowing a small but controlled portion of a pest population to remain does less damage to ecosystems, soils, water, and air. Another feature of IPM would be making a habitat more complex, such as mazes, so it can slow the spread of parasites. No-till or low-till agriculture is another feature of IPM because this helps natural enemies of some pests to build up in the soil, whereas plowing destroys the habitats of these enemies.
