The heart rate would decrease because there is less oxygen being supplied to the cells for cellular respiration, and also your muscles won't get the blood it needs. Blood also contains oxygen and glucose which cells need to convert food to energy and to survive, so if the cells don't get blood they will die which will eventually kill the organism
Answer:
Explanation:
Meiosis is a form of cell division that occurs in the sex cells of organisms. It ensures the reduction of a diploid cell to an haploid cell to allow for the formation of a diploid zygote after fertilization (contribution of both parents haploid sex cells to give a diploid zygote). Thus, this process is very essential and important.
The reduction is accomplished by 2 divisions after the duplication of chromosomes
- first division: separation of homologous pairs of chromosomes (this reduces the total in half)
- second division: separation of sister chromatids of a chromosome.
The rearrangement in meiosis occurs by crossing over/genetic recombination.
This is the exchange of genetic material between homologous pairs of chromosome bringing about a rearrangement and genetic variation
An example of a chromosomal abnormality that arises as a result of defects in this process is the Down Syndrome which is caused by a nondisjunction of the chromosomes 21 pair in a sex cell.
This condition produces offsprings that have some characteristic facial features, short stature etc
The primary function of the plasma membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. Composed of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins, the plasma membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and regulates the movement of substances in and out of cells.
Answer: The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of living organisms
Explanation:
These are known as Hormones. Hormones are chemical messengers that are released in one tissue normally endocrine glands for example, adrenal glands, pituitary glands, and transported in the blood stream to alter the activities of specific cells in other tissues. Hormones serves as messengers, controlling and coordinating activities or processes such as growth, metabolism and fertility in the body.
