In arteriosclerosis, overproduction of abnormal collagen and decreased quantities of elastin lead to Decreased coronary artery perfusion.

Arteriosclerosis is a condition in which the arteries, which transport oxygen and nutrients from the heart to the rest of the body, thicken and stiffen, often limiting blood flow to the organs and tissues. Flexible and elastic arteries indicate good health. However, the artery walls can stiffen over time, a phenomenon known as arterial hardening.

The accumulation of lipids, cholesterol, and other chemicals in and on the artery walls is known as atherosclerosis. The accumulation is known as plaque. Atherosclerosis can constrict the arteries and obstruct blood flow. The plaque may rupture and cause a blood clot.

Symptoms of arteriosclerosis:

  • chest pressure or discomfort (angina)
  • sudden numbness or weakness in the arms or legs.
  • speech slurs or speaking difficulties.
  • vision briefly lost in one eye.
  • weakened facial muscles
  • ache while walking.
  • elevated blood pressure
  • renal failure

The two main components of plant fertilizers which affect algal growth when they are delivered to aquatic systems via runoff are
sertanlavr [38]
<span>Nitrogen and phosphorous are the most prevalent aquatic pollution and contribute heavily to the excessive growth of algae in aquatic environments called algae blooms. The nitrogen from the fertilizers is found in molecules called nitrates which are compounds of both oxygen and nitrogen. Phosphorous helps algae to absorb carbon dioxide. So when the phosphorous levels are high the algae absorbs more carbon dioxide, which allows for faster photosynthesis and faster glucose production which leads to faster growth. Although algae need both nitrogen and phosphorous to grow, when the levels are too high the algae grows faster than the ecosystem can sustain leading to oxygen deprivation for the other aquatic organisms.</span>

Small body (nb), short spines (Is) and amoral are three recessive traits in stick the genes of which are linked on the same chro
melomori [17]

Answer:

The three genes in coupling are in repulsion.

Explanation:

Coupling happens when the dominant alleles and the recessive alleles are on the same homologous chromosome, while the repulsion happens when one chromosome has one dominant allele and one recessive allele and another homologous chromosome also has dominant and recessive alleles.

If the progeny has:

nb+ ls+ a/nb ls a ⇒ nb+ ls+ a

nb ls a+/nb ls a ⇒ nb ls a+

Where nb+ ls+ a is the dominant alleles and nb and nb+ is in middle.

ls+ nb+ are on the same chromosome (both dominant)

ls nb are on the same chromosome (both recessive)

ls nb, these two are in coupling with each other, but ls+ and a are on the chromosome and ls+ or nb+ are dominant, while nb+ and a are recessive on form a, thus, ls and nb, they are in repulsion with a.
