What else can I help you with?
What causes low moncocytes?
Low monocytes in the blood occurs in due to the release of toxins into the blood. The toxins in the blood are due to certain types of bacteria as well as in receiving chemotherapy.
What type of shock occurs when poisons or toxins in the blood cause vasodilation and the blood pressure drops?
Septic shock
What is the danger of eating clams when red tide occurs?
Clams will accumulate the toxins produced by the red tide. Eating such contaminated clams will make people sick.
How do toxins move through a foodweb?
Toxins can move through a food web via a process called bioaccumulation. This occurs when toxins are ingested by organisms at lower trophic levels and accumulate in their tissues. As these organisms are eaten by predators, the toxins are passed up the food chain, leading to higher concentrations of toxins in top predators. This can have harmful effects on the health of these organisms.
When are red tides dangerous to humans?
when algae toxins accumulate in shellfish :)
Increasing concentrations of toxins in organisms as you move up the food chain is called?
biomagnification. This process occurs when toxins accumulate in organisms at higher trophic levels due to the consumption of contaminated prey or food sources. Biomagnification can have harmful effects on top predators in the ecosystem.
In what trophic level of an energy pyramid will you find the highest amount of toxins accumulate?
in the third level consumer because the toxins had been transferred to it
A word that means build up of toxins in large predators through the food chain?
Biomagnification is the process where toxins accumulate in higher trophic levels of a food chain. This occurs when predators consume prey that have absorbed or accumulated toxic substances. Over time, the concentration of toxins increases as they move up the food chain, posing a risk to top predators.
How does blood accumulate in the heart?
Blood is created in the bone marrow.
How does bleeding occur in AP?
Purpura is a bleeding disorder that occurs when capillaries rupture, allowing small amounts of blood to accumulate in the.tissues. In AP, this occurs because the capillaries are blocked by protein complexes formed during an abnormal immune reaction
How does the change in concentration represent biomagnification?
As toxins move up the food chain, their concentrations increase. This phenomenon is known as biomagnification. Organisms at higher trophic levels accumulate larger amounts of toxins as they consume prey with accumulated toxins, resulting in a higher concentration of toxins in organisms at the top of the food chain.
What role does hair tissue play in determining an individual's exposure to environmental toxins?
Hair tissue can provide valuable information about an individual's exposure to environmental toxins. When toxins are present in the environment, they can be absorbed by the body and accumulate in the hair. By analyzing hair tissue, scientists can measure the levels of toxins present, which can help determine the extent of an individual's exposure to environmental toxins.
