Which of the following scenarios would be most likely to cause a weak point in the aorta to rupture, and why? (2 points)
REY [17]
<span>I believe the answer is,

High systolic, because when the heart pumps, the pressure inside the aorta would be greatest, causing the weak spot to rupture outward.

This indicates high blood pressure that causes rupture of the aorta or aorta dissection.</span>

xeze [42]
The word "cycle" in cell cycle refers to the regular pattern of growth, DNA duplication, and cell division that occurs in eukaryotic cells.
The cell cycle is the term that describes the development and growth of a cell, after its formation and until its reproduction (division into two daughter cells). In eukaryotic cells (cells that include a nucleus) the cell cycle is comprised of two major phases, the interphase and the mitosis. During interphase, the cell grows larger and duplicates its genetic material. During mitosis, the cell divides its genetic material and cytoplasm, creating two daughter cells.

What are the three parts of the body responsible for the excretion of excess water
hram777 [196]

The organs that are involved in the excretion of water from the body include:

1. Kidneys (Primary organ for water removal)

2. Skin

3. Lungs

The kidneys play a key role in maintaining the water balance of the body. The kidneys control the water levels in the body by conserve water when there is shortage, and they can expel excess water by diluting the urine.

The skin has water in it. This water gets lost to the atmosphere by the process of evaporation. This is independent of the process of sweating wherein the skin actively releases water in the form of sweat to cool the body.

Our breath has a lot of moisture in it. This moisture is present due to the evaporation process taking place within the lungs due to the heat of the body. Thus lungs also become a part of the water loss mechanism.

Mrac [35]

Answer:

Endoplasmic reticulum

Explanation:

The endoplasmic reticulum makes an extensive internal system of membranes in the eukaryotic cells. It makes a system of tubes and sacs that run throughout the cytoplasm. The ER is connected to the nuclear envelop also and serves in the transport of substances and proteins throughout the cells with the help of transport vesicles. For instance, the proteins formed on the surface of rough ER are packed in vesicles that bud off from the surface of rough ER and are carried to the Golgi apparatus for processing.

Which statement best describes the evolutionary significance of mutualism?
krok68 [10]

Answer:

C) Interaction increases the survival and reproductive rates of mutualistic species.

Explanation:

A) Mutualism offer more biodiversity to a community.

    Biodiversity is the different species living in one environment. Since mutualism is only involving two species, it wouldn't increase the biodiversity of one ecosystem, making it incorrect.

B) Individuals partaking in a mutualistic relationship relationship are more resistant to parasites.

    Mutualism is only benefiting two species, not their immunity to diseases and parasites. These two have no correlation with each other, making it incorrect.

D) Mutualistic interaction lessens competition in communities where it is present.

    Since mutualism is only benefiting two species, they have no correlation since the relationship doesn't affect the different species in the environment.

E) Mutualistic relationships allow organisms to synthesize and use energy more efficiently.

    Although there could be some relationships involving energy transfer between the species, that would sound more like commensalism or even paratsitism if you think about it. However, it is very uncommon and usually energy has no relationship with species relationships, making it incorrect.

Hope this helps! My deepest apologies if I got in incorrect!
