What is aortic regurgitation?

Aortic regurgitation, also known as aortic valve regurgitation, is a problem that develops when the aortic valve in your heart doesn't seal completely. As a result, part of the blood that is pumped out of your left ventricle, your heart's primary pumping chamber, seeps backward.

Your heart may be unable to effectively pump blood to the rest of your body as a result of the leak. You can have exhaustion and shortness of breath as a result.

Aortic valve regurgitation may appear overnight or take years to manifest. Surgery is frequently required to repair or replace the aortic valve after aortic valve regurgitation has reached a severe stage.

Surgery to replace your aortic valve is the recommended course for treatment. During this procedure, your surgeon will remove the damaged valve and replace it with a mechanical valve, the valve from a pig or cow, or with human tissue. Over time, these tissues may need to be replaced.

The glomerular filtration rate would most likely be affected by:
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- B.

Explanation:

Glomerular filtration rate or GFR is the rate of the volume of filtrate formed by all renal corpuscles of both kidneys per unit time that is 120 ml/ min. The GFR depends on the pressure gradient in the glomerulus mainly its hydrostatic pressure.

The GFR is directly proportional to the glomerular blood pressure as the blood pressure increases, the hydrostatic pressure also increases which increases the GFR as more water and solutes enter the bowman's capsule. With the decrease in the blood vessels, the GFR decreases.

Thus, option- B is the correct answer.

Which neuron would activate to a muscle? 2. : Which neuron would be found in the retina of the eye? 3. : Which neuron is a senso
lesya [120]

Answer:

Since this question has multiple subquestions in it, I will give you the answer to them as follows:

1. Which neuron would activate a muscle? They are called multipolar neurons, they are found mostly originating from the CNS itself and they are multipolar because when a neuron stimulates a muscle, one signal from just one terminal is not enough; it requires the stimulation from several neurnal terminals.

2. Which neuron would be found in the retina of the eye? A bipolar neuron. This is because these neurons will fulfill a double function: to activate the muscles of the retina, and also they will convey messages taken by the sense of sight, towards the brain for interpretation and integration.

3. Which neuron is a sensory neuron found in a reflex arc? The answer again is a unipolar neuron. These neurons will not reach the brain itself, but rather the reflex arc site on the spinal cord. Their task is to relay sensations from the site that has been stimulated to the spinal cord and from there to the affected place, with the correct response.

4. Which neuron is never myelinated? Again the answer is the bipolar neurons found connecting the retina and the eyes. The reason is that these neurons are capable of relying fast messages to and from the brain, whereas in myelinated ones, messages go slower due to the myeling sheaths.

5. Which neuron is typically involved in the special senses of sight and smell?  Once more the answer is the bipolar neurons that are most commonly found connecting the different organs of these two senses. Since these have such unique capabilities: relying information for integration and sensory and motor responses, their action potentials travel fast, and have a short distance to go.
