A medical researcher measured the diastolic wall thicknesses of the arteries in a young, healthy test subject. The test subject

came back 20 years later to have the measurements repeated. The measurements revealed that the subject's artery walls were half as thick as they were originally. Which of the following is the most likely long-term effect if the measured trend continues?
a) Arteries and veins will fuse, causing oxygenated and deoxygenated blood to mix.

b) Arteries will be unable to withstand the pressure exerted by the heart, causing an aneurysm.

c) Blood volume will increase, causing the kidneys to work harder to maintain blood pressure.

d) Blood pressure will decrease, causing nausea, dizziness, loss of consciousness, and potential death.

Lysosomes have lytic enzymes, the cell wall gives support, chloroplasts act in photosynthesis, and the endoplasmic reticulum act during protein and lipid synthesis.

<h3>What is the lysosome?</h3>

The lysosome is an organelle that contains hydrolytic enzymes used to break proteins, whereas the cell wall is a structure that provides physical support to plant cells.

Chloroplasts are plant organelles used during photosynthesis and the endoplasmic reticulum acts during the production of proteins and lipids.

In conclusion, lysosomes, chloroplasts (plant and algae) and endoplasmic reticulum are eukaryotic organelles with diverse functions, whereas the cell wall provides structural support to plant and fungi cells.
