The pathogenesis of adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) involves which of the following? (Select all that apply.) Injury to the alveolar-capillary membrane Increased alveolar-capillary permeability Decreased lung compliance Alveolar wall thickening Collapse of the lung

Injury to the alveolar-capillary membrane  

Increased alveolar-capillary permeability  

Decreased lung compliance

Explanation:

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a serious health problem that affects the lungs, which is caused by significative amounts of fluid that fill the air sacs. ARDS may be caused by distinct conditions such as, for example, pneumonia, sepsis, and traumatic injury. ARDS is a type of respiratory failure that results in decreased oxygen levels and increased carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration into the bloodstream.

answer: dinosaur

explanation

their extinction was caused by massive asteroid that fell on earth

1. a host loses nutrients to a parasite

2. a parasite only benefits when the host is alive (cause if the host dies the parasite dies with it )

3. producers to consumers

4. the tapeworm is a parasite

5. they convert energy from the sun (photosynthesis)

6. sunflower-robin (i think im 80% sure)

7. producer

8. consumer

9. prey

10. fresh water snails ( cause the green algea is the producer and the snails are the primary consumers and the small fish consumer so is the big fish)
