Answer:

Angioplasty

Explanation:

Angioplasty is a technique of mechanically widening narrowed or blocked blood vessels. In angioplasty the doctors insert a deflated balloon in the narrowed vessel and then inflate it to fixed size. Thats why it is also known as baloon angioplasty.

Balloon push the walls of vessels for increases blood flow. Sometime a stent is also inserted immediately after angioplasty to ensure that blood flow remain intact and balloon is removed by deflating it.

Angioplasty may of several types depending upon the blood vessels it open such as coronary angioplasty, peripheral angioplasty and renal angioplasty.

kherson [118]

Answer:

Vesicles  

Explanation:

Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that transports signals or messages between neurons.

Most neuronal cells have vesicles in their interior, which are organelles that store neurotransmitters for exportation -by exocytosis- or from recycling -by endocytosis-. These vesicles also protect the neurotransmitter from the enzymatic action.

Vesicles form in the cellular soma, from where they are transported to nervous terminals. Once the vesicle releases the neurotransmitter to the intercellular space, their membrane remains available in the plasmatic membrane to be reused.

The neurotransmitter concentration in the vesicle interior is related to the storage system and the <u>transport system</u>. There are <u>specialized transporter proteins in the vesicle membrane</u> that are involved with the introduction of the molecule to the organelle.

In the exposed example, transporter Trans B might be located in the vesicle membranes, and hence could be found in the cytosol of the cells.

Gnom [1K]
Gorillas are ground-dwelling, predominantly herbivorous apes that inhabit the forests of central Sub-Saharan Africa. The genus Gorilla is divided into two species: the eastern gorillas and the western gorillas (both critically endangered), and either four or five subspecies. They are the largest living primates. The DNA of gorillas is highly similar to that of humans, from 95 to 99% depending on what is included, and they are the next closest living relatives to humans after the chimpanzees and bonobos.
