If the arota of the heart is damaged, which function of the heart will be affected first?​

Alisiya [41]4 years ago

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.

Cells can make proteins that need to be transported out of the cell and moved to another part of the body. Cells also make carbo
alex41 [277]

Answer:

The proteins will be transported through exocytosis; the carbon dioxide will diffuse through the membrane.

Explanation:

Diffusion is the passive transport of substances down their concentration gradient. The process moves the substances from the region of higher concentration to that of lower concentration. CO2 is a small molecule and does not have any charge. Small, uncharged molecules can diffuse through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. Therefore, CO2 can exit a cell by simple diffusion.

On the other hand, proteins are too large to be transported by diffusion across the cell membrane. The proteins are transported by exocytosis. During exocytosis of proteins, membrane-bound vesicles are formed inside the cell. These vesicles carry proteins in them and are called secretory vesicles. The membrane of the vesicles fuse with the cell membrane of cells and transport the proteins outside the cell.

Which model of replication did the actual results of the Meselson-Stahl experiment support? Explain your answer.
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Semi-conservative replication

Explanation:

After the double-helix discovery of Watson and Crick, there were three possible models about the DNI replication:

  • The Conservative model stated that the two strands of DNI together were the template of another new molecule. The final product was the original double-stranded molecule and the new molecule.
  • The semi-conservative model stated that the original DNI molecule separated into two strands, and each of them served as a template for the synthesis of a new complementary strand. The replication product would be two double-stranded DNA molecules, each carrying an original strand a new one.
  • The Dispersive moles stated that the replication product would be two molecules made by a mixture of segments of the original and the new molecules.

Meselson and Stahl joined to discover which of the models was the correct one. To do it they used E. coli and Nitrogen isotopes.

  • First, they extracted DNI from bacteria grown in a medium with N¹⁴ and got its density band by centrifugation.
  • Then they grew bacteria in a medium with N¹⁵, extracted their DNI molecules, centrifugated them, and got the density band, which was heavier than the firsts ones.
  • The researchers then transferred bacteria grown in medium with N¹⁵  to a medium with N¹⁴, and they allowed only one replication process to occur. DNI was extracted and centrifugated again, and a new band appeared. This band was an intermediate form between bands of DNI-N¹⁵ and DNI-N¹⁴.

This event <em>eliminated the conservative model</em>. If this model were correct, the expected result would be to get two bands: one corresponding to the density DNI-N¹⁵ and the other corresponding to the density DNI-N¹⁴.

  • Bacteria grown in a medium with N¹⁵ and then transferred to a medium with N¹⁴ were finally allowed to replicate twice. Their DNI was extracted and centrifugated. The result was two bands: one of them coincided with the intermediate band, and the other one with the DNI-N¹⁴.

<u>This result was conclusive</u> because if the dispersal model were correct, these two bands should not appear, as all the DNI strands would have part of the original molecule.

With this experiment, Meselson and Stahl proved that the correct replication model was the semi-conservative one.
