Atherosclerosis is a disease that involves the accumulation of fatty deposits on the inner walls of the arteries that causes them to harden over time. This prevents the arteries from expanding and contracting. Which statement best describes the effect would this have on the circulatory system?(1 point) This would reduce the amount of blood flowing through the arteries.

There would be no effect on the flow of blood through arteries.

This would reduce blood flow and prevent tissues from oxygenating.

This would prevent body tissues from getting much oxygen.

explanation:

answer: decrease

a limiting factor is the one which decrease the abundance, distribution and causes extinction of the population of species in a ecosystem. here, predators including hawks, owls and snakes are the limiting factor for the population of mexican free tailed bat.   although bats are nocturnal animals as they forge for food at night these predators also may remain active during night which can decrease the population of the mexican free-tailed bats. also, these bats eat only one type of insects that are moths. the food can also be a limiting factor as all 400 members are dependent upon same type of food needs that are moths. the decrease in the moth population can cause decrease in population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.

therefore, the scenarios will most likely to decrease the population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.  

geologic time scale (for gradpoint) =)

the answer is true when observing or determining population size, a direct observation is use, in which each organism is counted in a population or in an area. one benefit of this measure is that you get the exact population count but it will take a long time to  determine  the  size  of a  population.
