Very small changes in the solute concentrations in the various fluid compartments cause water to move from one compartment to an

other, which alters blood composition and blood pressure. How do the following physiological changes affect blood pressure?
a. Decrease water reabsorption
b. Decrease peripheral resistance
c. Vasodilation
d. Decrease salt intake
e. Decrease blood volume
f. Vasoconstriction
g. Increase peripheral resistance
h. Increase salt intake
i. Increase blood volume

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.

Which of these best matches an object in space with its characteristic?
nika2105 [10]

In this question we will match an object in space with its characteristic

A ganymede → orbits jupiter

B inner planet → many moons

C outer planet → gaseous in composition

D meteorite → comet that hits the Earth's surface

<h3>What are the characteristics of Ganymede?</h3>

Ganymede is the largest moon of Jupiter and is the largest in our solar system.

<h3>What is an inner planet?</h3>

The inner planets, closest to the Sun, are solid rock spheres and include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.

<h3>What is an outer planet?</h3>

Designation of planets less dense than Earth, with a large amount of gaseous substances, mainly hydrogen, helium, methane and ammonia

<h3>What are meteorites?</h3>

Meteorites are fragments of solid matter that come from space and reach the Earth's surface.

scoray [572]
Water

The electrons stripped from glucose first end up forming oxygen as cellular respiration proceeds with the electron transport chain (step). Eventually, the oxygen is combined with the hydrogen ions initially released or split from glucose by the dehydrogenase enzyme. The reaction between oxygen and hydrogen ends up forming water.

If ATP breakdown (hydrolysis) is inhibited, which of the following types of movement across cell membranes is also inhibited?
Len [333]

Answer:

d) passage of a solute against its concentration gradient

Explanation:

When a solute is transported against its concentration gradient, the cells use metabolic energy. To move a substance from the region of its lower concentration to that of its higher concentration, the energy of ATP hydrolysis is utilized. These types of transport mechanisms are called active transports. If ATP hydrolysis is inhibited in a cell, it would not be able to perform the uphill movement of solutes due to the lack of any source of energy to drive the process.
