A species of spruce tree occupies the same niche at the mouth of a river that a species of pine tree occupies further upstream.

Answer:

The correct option is: "Either the pine trees or the spruce trees will eventually evolve into a new species."

Explanation:

There will be a competition between spruce trees and pine trees for nutrition and other resources from the environment to grow and spread since they are now occupying the same niche. Overtime, one specie will outlive the other by evolving into a specie that gives it an advantage over the other.

Virty [35]

Answer:

a. thoracic duct

Explanation:

Trunks drain into ducts. Therefore only ducts drain into the bloodstream. The answer can be either option a or b.

Why a? The thoracic duct allows lymph from the left side of the body and the limbs (left and right side) to drain into the bloodstream. The right lymphatic duct drains fluid from the upper regions of the body, the right side, right arm and the head.

Juan has been diagnosed with mono, and the doctor wants to determine if his spleen is enlarged. Where (quadrant, etc.) will the
hichkok12 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

  • Where (quadrant, etc.) will the doctor palpate Juan's abdomen?

<em>Under normal conditions in general the spleen can not be palped because of its reduced size. But when it is enlarged it might be easily touched. The spleen is located under the thoracic cage (rib cage) on the left side, between the 8th and 11th ribs. This would correspond to the left superior quadrant (left hemi-belly).</em>

  • What other organs might be compressed by Juan's enlarged spleen?

<em>The enlargement of the spleen and the liver inflammation are symptoms of the mono disease. This enlargement might affect some neighboring organs such as the stomach, which might be displaced and compressed. </em>

  • why is Juan's spleen enlarged and not his stomach or kidney?

<em>The spleen is part of the immunological system and helps the body to fight infections and filter old bloody cells taking them out of the blood current. This organ might get enlarged because blood cells accumulate in its interior. Red blood cells are excessively stored in the spleen, resulting in anemia. The more cells the spleen retains, the larger it becomes, and hence, the more blood cells it retains and destroys. If the spleen is unproperly working, it kills too many red blood cells and accumulates many others.</em>

The Stomach and kidney are not part of the immunity system and they do not filter blood cells, so they do not seem to be affected by their accumulation.

vampirchik [111]
<span>During germination, peas grow and develop. The information table demonstrates the carbon dioxide created amid the germination time of peas under various conditions. Condition Rate of carbon dioxide created (mL/min) Germinating peas, 10ºC 0.01 Germinating peas, 20ºC 0.02 What is the best conclusion? The best conclusion for the outcomes excerpting from the information table that demonstrates the carbon dioxide created amid the germination time of peas under various conditions is an immediate and positive connection in its connections. Obviously, the developing time frame develops in the interim of 1 and 10 in both temperature and carbon dioxide created.</span>
