Coarctation of the aorta can cause high blood pressure in the heart. This can cause the muscle of the heart's main pumping chamber (left ventricle) to become thick. Eventually, the function of the heart muscle could deteriorate if the condition isn't treated.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>if the aorta of the heart is damaged,</u><u> the function of the heart muscle could deteriorate </u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

If aorta is damaged then aortic dissection most often happens because of a tear or damage to the inner wall of the aorta. Chronic high blood pressure may stress the aortic tissue, making it more susceptible to tearing. About 20% of patients with aortic dissection die before reaching the hospital. Without treatment, mortality rate is 1 to 3%/h during the first 24 h, 30% at 1 wk, 80% at 2 wk, and 90% at 1 yr.

Please help! <br><br> Descriptions of the importance of each reactant and product in photosynthesis
ad-work [718]
Photosynthesis: 12 H2O + 6 CO2 -> 6 O2 + C6H12O6 + 6 H2O 

12 water molecules and 6 carbon dioxide molecules are the reactants. 6 oxygen molecules, 1 glucose molecule, and 6 water molecules are the products. 

<span><span>Light dependent</span> reaction happens at the thylakoid membrane, made up of lipid bilayers, which is conveniently located in the chloroplast -> Light-independent reaction (the Calvin-Benson Cycle) happens in the stroma -> creation of glucose molecule. That's a much abridged explanation of photosynthesis.

Do you need to know if this organism grows anaerobically? if so, why? how would you determine if this organism grows anaerobical
snow_lady [41]
It is important to determine or know whether an organism is aerobic or anaerobic because from there you would be able to know the perfect conditions for the organism to grow and reproduce. If you are culturing the organism you would need if it needs oxygen and how much of oxygen is needed. Anaerobic organisms does not need the presence of oxygen in order to grow. You can determine an organism that is anaerobic by trying to put them in conditions that dos not have oxygen. After a few hours or days, when you observe that more organisms are present, then most likely it is an anaerobic organism.<span />
