Biology

lana66690 [7]3 years ago
8 0
<span>The blood pressure measured in the calf is lower than it is in the arm. Blood pressure in the body is highest right at the ascending arch of the aorta. From that point, the pressure decreases as blood moves "distally" from the heart. Purely mechanically, legs are farther away from the heart than are the arms, thus pressure is less.</span>

In which type of cell does a current drive a nonspontaneous redox reaction?
Dmitriy789 [7]
Electrolytic cell is the type of a cell in which current drive a non-spontaneous redox reaction. Redox reactions are reactions in which the oxidation number of the reactants are changed. To change oxidation number, electrons must either be added to or removed from the reactants. However, to observe the law of conservation of mass, all the electrons removed from one reactant or atom must be added to another one, therefore, the number of species lost by one substance is equal to the number of electrons gained by the other.
