Atherosclerosis has been associated with high blood pressure. when a person has a blood pressure of 158/99 is called hypotension

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. Additionally, the plaque may rupture and cause a blood clot.

A deposit of plaque in the inner lining of the artery results in atherosclerosis, which is a thickening or hardening of the arteries. High cholesterol and triglyceride levels, high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, obesity, physical activity, and consumption of saturated fats are possible risk factors.

Statins are frequently used to reduce cholesterol, maintain healthy arteries, and avoid atherosclerosis.

Plants have large central vacuole. The central vacuole stores water. What happens to the plant when the central vacuole does not
GrogVix [38]
The plant wilts. It is because it doesn't have enough water to stay the cells turgid, and therfore it cannot support the plant.
It won't die immediately, but if you don't keep watering it, it'll die.

What are ejcs? Describe the importance of the ejc complexes for the export and stability of mrnas.
Alex Ar [27]

Explanation:

The Exon Junction Complex (EJC) is a eukaryotic molecular machine that interacts with spliced mRNA upstream of exon-exon junctions, providing a binding platform for other trans-acting proteins that determine the fate of the mRNA.  The spliceosome deposits the ~335kD EJC in a non-sequence specific manner 20-24 nucleotides upstream of an exon-junction.  Functionally, the EJC aids in nuclear export of spliced mRNAs, assists in nonsense-mediated decay of incorrectly spliced mRNAs containing premature stop codons, and enhances translation efficiency.

Pre-mRNA bound by a spliceosome is usually not exported from the nucleus, so as to make sure that only fully-processed mRNA travels to the cytoplasm to be translated.  A protein called the mRNP exporter binds to the EJC, both through RNA interactions and interactions with the EJC-associated protein REF (RNA export factor) to help pre-mRNA exit the nuclear pore complex.

Interestingly, the efficiency of unspliced mRNA export is dependent on the length; longer mRNAs are exported more efficiently than shorter mRNAs. In spliced mRNAs, however, once the 5' exon is long enough to bind the EJC, the length of the spliced mRNA does not affect the export efficiency.

There are a certain number of EJCs in a cell, and they must be recycled in order to continue tagging mature mRNAs. Once in the cytoplasm, the ribosome-associated regulator protein (PYM) acts as a dissociation factor.
