The right answer is the last option: <span>"food high in saturated fat thickens the arteries and makes it harder for the heart to send oxygen to the body's cells."

The saturate fat partially passes to blood and deposit in the arterie's walls causing thickening. This thickening of arteries reduces the area trhough wich blood has to flow. The immediate consequence is that the heart has to work more (harder) to compensate the reduction of the area and keep the flow, with higher blood pressure, to send the adequate level of oxygen to the cells.

Which structure is the final step in the pain pathway and results in pain perception and interpretation?
qwelly [4]

Answer: Third-order neurons

Explanation:

Third-order neurons in the thalamus, brainstem, and midbrain project to the central nervous system, which allows pain perception and interpretation.

Also, the limbic and reticular tracts are activated by third-order neurons, resulting in arousal and emotional responses to pain.

When stimulated, nociceptors (first-order neurons) in the skin, muscles, joints, arteries, and viscera transmit pain impulses to the spinal cord.

Second-order neurons in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord transmit the pain impulse to higher brain areas via spinal pathways.

The thalamus is the primary relay station for pain impulses.
