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

Biology

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.

Describe how living things use anaerobic respiration to generate energy.
Mrac [35]
Anaerobic respiration is the process by which some organisms produce energy in the absence of oxygen. Instead of oxygen, organic and inorganic molecules are used as electron acceptors. One example of anaerobic respiration is fermentation.
In latic acid fermentation, one molecule of glucose undergoes glycolysis to produce two molecules of pyruvate. The two molecules of pyruvate then undergo fermentation to produce two molecules of lactate. The lactate will be transported to the liver. The lactate can be reconverted to pyruvate and utilized for energy. Latic acid fermentation occurs in the muscles.

How will you investigate a change in velocity affects the velocity of the two carts after the collision if the objects do not st
Nutka1998 [239]

P = mv

This is a momentum question:

Momentum is always conserved so the momentum before and after a collision must be equal so:

The velocity of the two objects after they collide and dont stick together if no KE is lost is dependent on the mass of each of the objects by:

m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i} = m_{1} v_{1f} + m_{2} v_{2f}\\

Where i is initial and f is final meaning before and after the collision
