Answer:

When seen on a Wright-stained peripheral blood film, a young red cell that has just extruded (lost its) nucleus is referred to as a polychromatophilic cell.

Explanation:

On Wright-stained smears, slightly immature red cells that do not have nuclei (reticulocyte stage) look blue-gray because they still have some ribonucleic acid in them (RNA). These cells are commonly referred to as polychromatophilic cells. Most of the time, polychromatophilic cells are bigger than mature red cells, and their blue-gray color makes them different from macrocytes.  Polychromatophilic red cells also tend to lack the central pallor.

When the remaining mRNA and ribosomes are stained with supravital dyes, they make the red cells look like a "reticular" mesh network. This is how the name "reticulocyte" came about. It is to be noted that not all reticulocytes show up as polychromatophils when stained with Wright-Giemsa.

viva [34]

Answer:

All progeny with heterozygous dominant genotype

Explanation:

Mendel crossed two pure breeding pea plants with respect to one genetic trait. He found that the F1 progeny obtained by crossing two pure breeding parent plants is always heterozygous dominant. The phenotype of the F1 progeny was always the phenotype of the dominant pure breeding parent plant.

For instance, purple flower color is a dominant trait over the white flower color in pea plants. When he crossed a pure breeding purple-flowered pea plant (PP) with a pure breeding white-flowered pea plant (pp), the F1 progeny was expressed the phenotype of the dominant parent and had purple flowers. The genotype of the F1 plants was Ww (heterozygous dominant).

How would relaxing the smooth muscles in arteries affect blood pressure apex?
Serggg [28]

Arteries are part of the circulatory system in the human body that transports nutrients and oxygen to every cell of the body. It is also a vessel that carries blood away from the heart and toward other organs and tissues. If the smooth muscles in the arteries will be relaxed it decreases the blood pressure.
