Answer:
1. False
2. False
3. True
Explanation:
1. Compliance is the capacity of a container to increase in size to allow it hold more content. Blood vessel, arteries and veins expand (increase in volume) to be able to accommodate a surge in blood flow, which is as a result of an increase in pressure of the blood from the heart pumping of the blood
Therefore, compliance in the tendency for blood vessel volume to increase as the blood pressure <em>increases</em> not decrease
The statement is false
2. A large compliance is indicative of being highly sensitive to changes in pressure
Compliance, C = ΔV/ΔP
From the above equation, a blood vessel with a large compliance, exhibit a large increase in volume when the increase in pressure is small
Therefore, the statement 'Blood vessels with a large compliance exhibit a small increase in volume when pressure increases a small amount; is false
3. The compliance of the vein ranges from 10 to 20 times (30 times in some literature) greater than arteries. A factor which can be affected by the vascular smooth muscle contraction or relaxation
Therefore, the statement, 'venous compliance is approximately 24 times larger than arterial compliance, so as venous pressure increases the volume of veins greatly increases' is true
I believe the answer is the Plateau phase of the sexual response cycle. The sexual response cycle has four stages of sexual responding described by Maters and Johnson; that is the excitement, plateau, orgasm, resolution phases. During the excitement phase, the genital areas become engorged with blood. During the orgasm phase, there are muscle contractions all over the body, further increasing breathing, pulse and blood pressure rates; and during resolution phase the body gradually returns to its unaroused state as the engorged genital blood vessels release accumulated blood.
Answer:
Hypothesis
Explanation:
In the scientific method used by scientist, The Hypothesis has a tentative or proposed explanation that gives report of an observed or measured phenomena. The hypothesis is usually based on previous observations which fails to be explained by available scientific theories. It is the starting point for further investigation that can be tested through experimentation.
