Unit Connections Throughout the course of this year we have been making connections between the units that we
have been studying,
Microbiome
Metabolism
Traits and Reproductions
Populations and Resources
Matter and Energy in Ecosystems
Natural Selection
Evolutionary History
For this assignment you will need to make a connection between at least three units and explain
how they are all connected through the study of Life Science [ 1

Ineed a chemical reaction takes place in which erlergy is released. arrange the reaction's characteristics in order from start to finis lower energy of reactants higher energy of products higher energy of reactants transition state sd lower energy of products

Explain the source of radioactivity in uranium in earth’s crust by which it produces nuclear radiation

The kidney filters potentially toxic substances in the blood, and thus “clears” the blood of those substances. this clearance function is dependent upon and proportional to the diffusion gradient of the substance across filtering capillaries, i.e. if the concentration of the substance is doubled, twice as much will be cleared from each ml of blood that is filtered. suppose that the body produces a constant amount of a substance x per unit of time. the kidneys eliminate substance x at a rate directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and the volume of blood cleared each minute (c): elimination = c × [x], where [x] is the steady-state concentration of substance x. imagine an individual with an initial concentration of x equal to [x]0 who develops kidney disease. her baseline clearance c0 drops to one half of the original (½c0). what is the new steady state concentration of x? (for simplicity, assume that substance x is 100% filtered by the kidney).
