After reading the paragraph below, answer the questions that follow.

Scientists from The National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science conducted a 6-year study on the effects of ocean temperature change on abundance of dominant intertidal species (barnacles and mussels). These organisms can outcompete other intertidal organisms for space (and therefore distribution and abundance). Suppose the scientists collected the following data on average intertidal zone temperatures (C°) and densities of mussel clumps and barnacle colonies (per square meter):

YearAvg. Annual Intertidal Zone Temperature (C°)# Clumps Mussels/sq m# Colonies Barnacles/sq m
​
20046°622
20056.7°5.519
20067.3°517
20077.8°4.7516.5
20088.2°4.516
20098.5°4.516
20108.7°4.516

How would information gleaned from this project enable additional studies of organismal biodiversity and climate change?
◦ Scientists could use their data analysis to predict the impact of average rainfall on biodiversity of intertidal marine organisms.
◦ Scientists could use their data analysis to predict future changes in biodiversity of nondominant (more rare) intertidal marine organisms as they respond to variation in climate change.
◦ Scientists could use their data analysis to predict changes in biodiversity of terrestrial organisms in temperate forests as they respond to variation in climate change.

Cutaneous mucormycosis is a rare fungal infection that has been fatal in at least 29% of cases, and in as many as 83% of cases, depending on the patient's health prior to infection. It has occurred often after natural disasters such as tornados, and early treatment is essential.

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms. The danger from hypertension is the extra load on the heart, which can lead to hypertensive heart disease and kidney damage. This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.
