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

There are three layers of the uterus: The perimetrium is the outer layer, the myometrium is in the middle, and the endometrium is the inner layer of the uterine wall.

Which of the following does not describe enzymes?
Oksanka [162]

The statement 'enzymes work by raising the energy of activation' is NOT true about the enzymatic activity. These proteins lower this energy.

<h3>Enzymes and activation energy</h3>

Enzymes are proteins capable of catalyzing specific chemical reactions in a given medium.

Enzymes work by lowering (instead of increasing) the activation energy of a chemical reaction.

Enzymes help to convert one or more reactants into specific products of the reaction that they catalyze.
