Answer;

The fibrous pericardium is not distensible, which causes the blood to put pressure on the heart, constricting it and reducing its ability to contract

Explanation;

-Cardiac tamponade is a clinical syndrome caused by the accumulation of fluid in the pericardial space, resulting in reduced ventricular filling and subsequent hemodynamic compromise.

-The most common causes of cardiac tamponade are; rupture of an aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the wall of the aorta), advanced lung cancer, acute pericarditis (inflammation of the pericardium), a heart attack, and heart surgery.

Oksanka [162]

ANSWER: CANCER DEVELOPMENT

EXPLANATION:

Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) are genes that regulates the cell cycle of a cell (i.e the cell division and replication). In other words, TSGs encodes protein that act as control or regulator of cell growth.

However, when there is an alteration in the genetic sequence (mutation) of the TSGs, this make the cell not to respond to cues that had been regulating it growth.

Thus, when cell growth is not regulated, it results to runaway or abnormal cell growth (i.e multiple folds cell division and replication), in other word referred to as “cancer”.

Match the digestive organ on the left with its function.
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

pancreas: secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestine

esophagus: the place where peristalsis takes place

small intestine: area of the digestive tract where most nuturients are absorbed

stomach: area of the digestive tract that follows the esophagus

large intestine: area of the digestive tract where mostly water is absorbed

Explanation:

peristalsis: so the food can move down towards your stomach, independently of gravity

pancreas: helps your stomach become the ultimate weapon to destroy anything that gets in there with its enzymes

small intestine: it is really really long -> more time to absorb nutrients

large intestine: like a farm of bacteria, the most exotic things that somehow made it through all the way here are finally destroyed -> also, water absorbtion: your body wants to retain as much as possible, this is how and where stool formation takes place
