Blood flow is regulated in all three types of blood vessels through ____________ and dilation.

Biology

IrinaK [193]3 years ago

*Blood flow is regulated in all three types of blood vessels through constriction and dilation.

*Contraction of blood vessels slows blood flow, while relaxation of blood vessels, or dilation, allows free flow of blood.

*Muscle fibers control the constriction and dilation of vessels. In the capillaries, rings of muscle called capillary sphincters control blood flow.

*The directional flow of blood in the veins is controlled with valves , which prevent backward blood flow when closed, and allow blood to flow only toward the heart when open.

Vasoconstriction and vasodilatation allow blood vessels (arteries and veins) to control blood flow and thus control the blood pressure. This is possible because of the smooth muscle cells that surround the vessels. The contraction and dilatation of those muscles is controlled by chemical signals (e.g. norepinephrine constricts the vessels, while NO dilates them).

The bacterial transduction experiments done by Hershey and Chase, and the bacterial transformation experiments done by Griffith,
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Hershey Chase  and Griffith experiment supported the same conclusion which was: DNA is the molecular substance of genetic inheritance.

Explanation:

Both experiments have was based on different phenomenon and techniques to prove same conclusion.

Hershey and chase conducted an experiment via bacteriophage which consists to DNA and protein coat that infects bacterial cells. He proved the DNA as genetic material by the help of transduction mechanism (Incorporation of Bacteriophage DNA in to bacterial cells). He used two group of Bacteriophage 1st group of Phage contain radioactively labelled proteins by Sulphur 32 isotope. While 2nd group contain Bacteriophage having P32 labelled DNA to infect Bacterial cells. After the infection, the Reaction tubes subjected to centrifuge and presence of radioactivity was determined in pellet and supernatant. The 1st group show radioactivity in supernatant while 2nd group shows racdioactivity in pellet or bacterial cells.

Griffiths just hypothesized a substance that can be transmitted from dead organism to alive organisms with the help of transformation phenomenon (uptake of Genetic material from the surrounding or environment). He conducted his experiments on <em>Streptococcus pneumonia avirulent and virulent species. </em>By mixing dead virulent species and live avirulent species and injecting into the mice results in the death of an experimental animal. While alone dead virulent species and live avirulent species fail to cause disease in mice.

Few producers live deep below a lakes surface. Suggest an explanation for this pattern
taurus [48]
Producers are green plants or photosynthetic organisms that are the basis for the other living parts of any ecosystem. Producers need to have access to light to produce food. Few producers will be found deep below a lakes surface simply because the deeper you travel under water the less light penetrates those deeper layers.

How does the sense of vision help maintain equilibrium?
umka21 [38]
The eyes detect changes in posture and inform the brain about the position of the body, so vision is very important for maintaining balance, in the optic disc nerve fibers leave the eye.
