Answer:

contractions

2. actin

3. tendons

4. epidermis

5 dermis

6. acne

Explanation: 7. A nerve signal from the brain arrives at the intersection of the nerve and muscle cells and releases acetylcholine from the neuron. This triggers chemical changes in the muscle cell involving ions, including Ca2+. Calcium triggers the thick filaments, made of myosin, to attach to the thin filaments, made of actin, in the muscle cell, and the myosin pulls the actin toward the center of the muscle cell. ATP causes the release of the actin fibers, allowing the muscle to relax and the process to begin again.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

a. Decrease water reabsorption : decrease blood pressure.

b. Decrease peripheral resistance : decrease blood pressure

c. Vasodilation : decrease blood pressure

d. Decrease salt intake : decrease blood pressure

e. Decrease blood volume : decrease blood pressure

f. Vasoconstriction : increase blood pressure

g. Increase peripheral resistance:  increase blood pressure

h. Increase salt intake:  increase blood pressure

i. Increase blood volume : increase blood pressure

j. Increase water reabsorption: increase blood pressure

Explanation:

  • Total peripheral resistance: This term refers to the resistance offered by the vascular system to the blood flow.  This resistance is a result of the friction between the blood and the vessel's walls. In other words, it is the opposition of the vessels to blood flow. The total peripheral resistance is the summary of all the bloody circuit resistances in the body. Those mechanisms that induce vasoconstriction conduce to an increase in total peripheral resistance, while mechanisms that induce vasodilation provoke a decrease in total peripheral resistance.    
  • Blood pressure: This term refers to the strength applied by the blood against the vessel walls as it flows.  This pressure is determined by the bombed blood strength and the volume as well as by the vessel size and flexibility. Blood pressure changes continuously according to the activity, temperature, diet, emotional state, among others.    
  • Salt ingestion causes an increase in plasmatic osmolarity, stimulates thirst, and hence, water ingestion. Sodium retains water, expanding the blood volume and causing an increase in vessel pressure.
  • The antidiuretic hormone, also known as vasopressin hormone, is released by changes in serum osmolarity or blood volume. Its function is to keep homeostasis and make kidneys conserve or keep water by concentrating urine and by reducing its volume. By these actions, the antidiuretic hormone stimulates water reabsorption, according to the organism´s needs.
  • Kidneys control blood pressure in many ways. If the pressure is elevated, kidneys produce the loss of salt and water, normalizing arterial pressure. But if pressure is low, kidneys conserve water.

Digiron [165]

Herbivore; carnivore

A rabbit is an example of a herbivore while a hyena is an example of a carnivore.

A herbivore is an animal that obtain its energy by feeding mainly on plants (i.e. that eats no meat). Other examples of herbivores apart from rabbit are cows, sheep and insects. A carnivore is an animal that feeds on meat as the main parts of its diet. Other examples of carnivores apart from hyena are lions, coyotes, tigers and eagles.

What is the expected phenotypic ratio of the offspring of a a BbPp*BbPp cross if these alleles sort independently?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Let's consider that the allele 'B' is for Black hair colour and it is dominant. Let's consider that the allele for red hair colour is b.

Let's consider the allele for lacking horns or polles is 'P' and it is dominant. The allele for having horns is 'p' and it is recessive.

When two heterozygous black, lacking horns (BbPp) are crossed, the results will have the probability of 9 black/polled : 3 black/horned : 3 red/polled : 1 red/horned organisms.
