Does the mitral valve prolapse increase, decrease, or not change stroke volume (the amount of blood exiting the ventricle with e

Answer: this depends on the direction of flow of blood

Explanation:

The mirror valve prolapse also known as mirror regurgitation occurs when part of the mitral valve slips backwards loosely into the left atrium and this can be as a result of damage or the abnormal size of the mitral valve tissues.

This thing physiological aftermaths of mirror valve prolapse includes

1. reduced forward stroke volume ( reduced stroke volume of blood exiting the ventricles to flow to other parts of the body

2. Increased left atrial volume and pressure. Due to the backwards flip of the valve, and instead of being closed each ventricular contraction, blood flows into the left atrium increasing the volume and its pressure producing pulmonary oedema.

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

In the ocean, carbon dioxide reacts with seawater to form carbonic acid, and this results in the ocean pH to drop (becoming acid). When carbon dioxide increases there will be an increase in carbonic acid, thus a huge drop in the pH level causing the water to be more acidic, resulting in the phenomenon called ocean acidification. Ocean acidification result in the oceans' animals inability to form shells and skeletons .

Explanation:

Ocean acidification causes a disruption the oceans' ecosystem,for corals and shelled-marine animals, acidifaction of their shells and skeletons ,make them vulnerable to harsh weathers (storms), and they make not fully recover. This phenomenon may also affect the reproduction and development of other marine animals.

Ocean acidification also have an effect on humans. We get our food from the ocean, and ocean acidification means a decrease in food supply. Due to the death of corals, the tourism sector will also be affected.
