Answer:

The correct answer is: increase EDV and therefore, increase stroke volume.

Explanation:

Stroke volume refers to the <u>volume of blood that is pumped from the left ventricle in every beat</u>. Stroke volume, along with heart rate, determines the cardiac output and is used to calculate ejection fraction. An abnormal stroke volume correlates to heart malfunction.

Stroke volume (SV) is calculated by subtracting end-systolic volume (ESV) from end-diastolic volume (EDV).

SV = EDV - ESV

For this reason, one can infer that <u>an increase in EDV will produce an increase in stroke volume</u>; and a decrease in EDV will produce a decrease in stroke volume.

<u>An increase in venous return will produce an increase in EDV and stroke volume because it stretches the muscle fibers thereby increasing their preload</u>.

Answer:

Increase EDV and therefore, increase stroke volume.

Explanation:

EDV is the volume of blood which filled the ventricle before its contraction while ESV is the volume of blood remain in ventricle after ejection.

When venous return increases, this will increase the pressure on ventricle contraction which can lead to eject of addition blood returned to it.

So, increase in EDV results in an increase of stroke volume (SV).

The type of contraction in which the muscle fibers do not shorten is called
Korolek [52]

Answer:

Isometric contraction

Explanation:

The length of the muscle is changed during contraction only when the muscle tension during contraction can outstand the resistance exerted by the object to be lifted.  

During isometric contractions, the muscle tension is not sufficient to exceed the resistance of the object. Hence, there is no change in the length of the muscle. The isometric contraction does not bring about any body movements.

Define diploid cell during meiosis
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells. Meiosis begins with a parent cell that is diploid, meaning it has two copies of each chromosome.

In Pepperland, occupational success (measured by salary) is inversely proportional to the quantitative trait, "BlueMeanie-ness".
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Please see below

Explanation:

First of all we need to examine and rank all BlueMeanie-ness scores from the Pepperlanders who took the test.

Ranked scores (from lowest to highest):  8.85; 10.80; 62.98; 88.07; 90.50.

Since the rationale is: occupational success is inversely proportional to the BlueMeani-ness score, it follows that the lower the score, the higher the occupational success, measured by salary. Therefore, the individuals with their scores on the low end will have a higher salary and the individuals with the higher scores will have a lower salary.

Conclusion: The individuals with scores 8.85 and 10.80 will likely have the higher wages.

imagine you were a plant. would you be able to survive without the other plant structures? why or why not?
liq [111]
Yes, a plant would as long as a living creature is in the area to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide. It is not totally necessary for other plants to be in the immediate vicinity but is necessary for all living things to live. As mentioned before carbon dioxide and oxygen must be exchanged. (The more the merrier(do not add this)).<span />
