[tex]\huge{\mathbb{\tt { ANSWER:}}}[/tex]

The kidneys act as very efficient filters for ridding the body of waste and toxic substances, and returning vitamins, amino acids, glucose, hormones and other vital substances into the bloodstream. The kidneys receive a high blood flow and this is filtered by very specialised blood vessels.

→ Eliminates Waste

The excretory system removes metabolic wastes from the body. The major organs of excretion are the kidneys, a pair of bean-shaped organs located below the liver. The kidneys filter blood and regulate water balance in the body.

→ Regulates Fluid Balance

Abstract. Body fluids are mainly water and electrolytes, and the three main organs that regulate fluid balance are the brain, the adrenal glands and the kidneys.

→ Regulates Blood Pressure

The kidneys provide a hormonal mechanism for the regulation of blood pressure by managing blood volume. The renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system of the kidneys regulates blood volume. In response to rising blood pressure, the juxtaglomerular cells in the kidneys secrete renin into the blood.

→ Regulates Red Blood

Abstract. Erythropoietin, which is produced by peritubular capillary lining cells of the kidney, is critical to the production of red blood cells. Endogenously produced erythropoietin circulates in the plasma to act on specific target cells in the marrow through cell surface receptors.

Cell Production

Cell production is a form of mass production that divides work into teams known as cells. Each cell is managed to achieve goals such as quality, efficiency and waste reduction.

Researchers allow bees to feed from a feeder located 500 meters due south of the hive for several days in a row. They then place a new feeder due south of the hive and place feeders in several other directions from the hive as well, but all are now 450 meters from the hive. They leave the original feeder empty. Next, they determine which feeders that new bees from the hive now visit. What information can they learn from this experiment alone

Answers

Answer:

they can learn if Bees are able to calculate distance and direction or if they simply stick to what they know.

Explanation:

From this experiment they can learn if Bees are able to calculate distance and direction or if they simply stick to what they know. Since they have been accustomed to feeding from the feeder that is south they may continue to do so, but since it is not the farthest from the hive and there are other feeders located closer they may chose the new feeder. If they do decide to change feeder, then it tells the researchers that the Bees are able to calculate the distance and know that the new feeders are closer, while which feeder they choose might give them information on how bees determine direction.

Match each idea about evolution to the person or group where it originated from the drop down menu

Answers

Hello. You did not present the ideas about evolution to which the question refers, which makes it impossible for your question to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way, showing you the main ideas about evolution and the people who originated them.

According to Jean-Baptiste organisms evolve as a way of seeking perfection.

According to the ancient Greeks and Romans, all living things are in a constant process of change. This change causes evolution and when a living being evolves it causes the evolution of another living being, since everyone is connected and related.

According to Darwin, evolution occurs over time and through an ancestor. For him All living beings have a common ancestor, which evolved over time and generated new species. Darvin also believes that any characteristic acquired by evolution could be passed on to the descendants.

According to Malthus, living beings generate a number of descendants disproportionate to the resources necessary for their survival and this causes evolution.

Which best describes how to classify water?
A It is an element because it is made
from a pure substance.
В
It is a compound because it is made
of a single kind of molecule.
© It is a mixture because it is composed
of more than one molecule.
D It is a solution because it is a
homogenous mixture of different
compounds.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Water is a compound and scientifically known as H[tex]_{2}[/tex]0 (2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen). Therefore, the answer is...

Not A because water is not an element of one pure substance; rather, it is a compound and can be broken down into two pure substances.Not B because the statement contradicts itself: a compound is made of different atoms and, thus, different molecules.Not C because a mixture contains different substances that are physically -- not chemically -- combined. And as we know, water is a compound, which means that its atoms are chemically bonded to one another. Or else it would just be 2 free hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen.D (yay!) because it is not the *most* accurate, but simply the best description of those provided. Water can be described as a homogenous (uniform in appearance) mixture because, minus the "mixture" part, that's what it is, essentially: a substance that looks pure but is really made of up different molecules.

How does the color adaptation help fish residing in the coral reefs?

Answers

Answer:

Fish found in coral reefs also have bright coloring to help with mating or camouflage. Due to the wide variety of prey found in coral reefs, the fish have developed a generalized feeding structure to take advantage of the biodiversity. Lastly sessile animals, such as coral, have adapted toxins to keep away predators.

Explanation:

Answer:

Many fish have color patterns that help them blend in with their environment. This may allow the fish to avoid being seen by a predator. Some fish, such as the flat fishes (Pleuronectiforms) , can change their skin coloration to match the surrounding habitat. Fish can also have disruptive markings to hide body parts

Explanation:

A trait that does not offer members of a population a great advantage will most likely
A. increase the reproductive rate in successive generations
B. decrease in frequency in successive generations
C. appear at the same frequency in successive generations
D. undergo a series of mutations in successive generations

Answers

The answer is B because weaker genes don’t get passed down

A trait that does not offer members of a population a great advantage will most likely decrease in frequency in successive generations. Thus, option B is correct.

What is theory of natural selection?

According to Charles Darwin in his theory of natural selection, organisms must compete for scarce resources. Only the fittest can survive. The fittest are organisms that have undergone the required genetic changes that increases their chances of survival. They pass on these genetic changes to the next generation or offspring.

When availability of food decreases, organisms begin to change genetically as they struggle for scarce resources thereby leading to variation in a population. All organisms must compete for survival. Natural selection continues to occur even today.When organisms struggle to survive, they usually mutate to increase chances of reproduction.

Therefore, A trait that does not offer members of a population a great advantage will most likely decrease in frequency in successive generations. Thus, option B is correct.
