Answer is stretch receptors.

Stretch receptors respond to the distention of muscle wall of the bladder and are neurologically linked to the medulla.

This leads to the expulsion of urine.

Answer:

<h2>1.45 + 3.55 = 5.0 (total blood volume); 1.45/5.0 × 100 = 29% (low),</h2>

Explanation:

HCT is calculated as:

HCT = Volume of red blood cells / (Volume of red blood cells + volume of plasma) x 100

1.45 + 3.55 = 5.0 (total blood volume); 1.45/5.0 × 100 = 29% (low), normal range for an adult female HCT ranges from 38 to 46% (some sources claim 34.9-44.5%).

*for calculating this, one must know two of these three values: packed cell volume, total blood volume, plasma volume.

Total blood volume = Packed cell volume + plasma volume.
