The blood vessels farthest from the heart must have valves.

The valves which are present in the blood vessels prevent the backflow of the blood back into the specific organ.

There are different valves present in the heart are:

  • The tricuspid valve is situated between the right atrium and right ventricle.
  • The pulmonary valve is between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery.
  • The mitral valve is between the left atrium and left ventricle.
  • The aortic valve is between the left ventricle and the aorta.

Other vales which are present in the blood vessels are in leg. Leg veins do require the valves. If not present the blood will go back down into the feet because of the gravity. Thus there are various valves present in the leg veins.

Valves in veins are bicuspid, meaning they have two flap-like structures that regulate blood flow in the vein.

To know more about the Valves, refer to this link:

Can humans live underwater what are some things to consider
ehidna [41]
Humans can live depending on certain circumstances of the water and energy level but realistically it’s not possible . Water concentration would be hard for us to take in , considering the amount of oxygen we have in and take in it wouldn’t last as much as a certain time being in the water. We would have to consider how deep we can live in , how much oxygen and energy level there is to be able to live in water.

Write any two advantages of transpiration to a plant .Given below is a set of five terms. Rewrite
lesantik [10]

Answer:

Transpiration:

Losing the water absorbed by the plant through its aerial parts in the form of water vapor to the atmosphere. Water is absorbed by roots from the soil and transported as a liquid to the leaves via the xylem to mesophyll cells, through intercellular spaces, and moving through substomatal space to the stoma. The leaves and aerial parts have small pores that allow water to moves as a vapor.

Advantages:

With the transpiration exchange of gases also takes place.

Excess amount of water removed from the plant body.

Absorbing water and distribution of water among plant body parts

Cooling the exposed aerial parts of the plant to the sun and warm winds.

The osmotic balance of the plant cell is regulated by the process of transpiration.

The logical sequence in order to loss of water due to transpiration is as follows:

xylem, mesophyll cells, intercellular spaces, substomatal space, stoma.
