What would most likely happen if capillaries had thick walls and large diameters?

Biology
1 answer:
bogdanovich [222]3 years ago
5 0
If capillaries had thick walls and large diameters, it would be much harder for diffusion to occur. Capillaries are usually thin so that it is easy for gases, nutrients, and wastes to diffuse in and out of the blood. If they were thicker, this diffusion would be much more difficult.

The reproductive cycle in females is regulated primarily by
madreJ [45]
The reproductive cycle in females is regulated primarily by HER HORMONES.  Five hormones to be exact. These hormones are Estrogen, Progesterone, Luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and gonadotropin releasing hormone.

Estrogen is from the ovaries. It helps regulate the menstrual cycle. It promotes the rapid growth of cell linings in the uterus to prepare for implantation resulting to pregnancy.

Progesterone is also from the ovaries. It is produced after ovulation and maintains the health of the lining within the uterus during pregnancy. If no pregnancy occurs, the progesterone level decrease and results to menses or monthly period.

Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone is secreted by the brain as a result of the hormonal changes that occur every month. It in turn stimulates the production of FSH and LH.

FSH stimulates the follicles inside the ovaries increase the amount of estrogen and progesterone produced in the first two weeks of the menstrual cycle.

The increase in estrogen level by FSH prompts the pituitary glands to release LH. Luteinizing hormone then signals the dominant follicle, made by FSH inside the ovaries, to release its eggs for possible fertilization.
