Describe the neural and hormonal mechanisms that work to maintain blood pressure after significant (hemorrhaging) blood loss ass
Bad White [126]

Autoregulatory neural and endocrine mechanisms activate after blood loss to compensate for the loss and restore homeostasis.

Neural mechanisms involve blood pressure and blood chemistry. Cardiac centers and vasomotor centers may increase the blood flow and cardiac output (sympathetic) or decrease the blood flow and cardiac output (parasympathetic). Peripheral vessels are also constricted and nor epinephrine decreases flow in the arteries and decreases the flow in the veins.

Endocrine control acts in the renal and adrenal organs, the brain and heart. RBCs, renin/angiotensiogen/aldosterone, catecholamines, antidiretic hormone, atrial natriuretic hormone regulate blood volume and blood pressure by keeping the fluids in the cardiovascular system. It also initiates vasoconstrictors or vasodilators.

The more ________________ the homologous structure, the more likely they _______________ shared a common ancestor
Natali [406]

The more numbers of the homologous structure, the more likely they have recently shared a common ancestor.

Explanation:

Homologous organs are defined as those organs which do have different functions but a similar basic structure which denotes the divergent evolution. Homologous organs are seen in species that are very close to each other which are more related with each other in terms of evolution. For example, a bird is more close to each man than a fish, so do share more homologous organs common to man than fishes do. Examples of the homologous organs are hands of human and wings of birds. They have same basic structure like skeletal structure which is humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals and phalanges. They are similar in structure but have different functions like flying in birds and gathering food in humans.
