Biology
1 answer:
pantera1 [17]3 years ago
6 0

Options for the question have not been given. They are as follows:

blood vessel length

blood viscosity

blood vessel diameter

blood colloid osmotic pressure

Answer:

blood colloid osmotic pressure

Explanation:

  • Peripheral resistance is the resistance to blood flow by blood vessels.
  • It is directly proportional to blood vessel length as more the distance to travel, more will be the resistance.
  • It is also directly proportional to blood viscosity as more energy is required to push viscous material.
  • It is indirectly proportional to blood vessel diameter. More the diameter of the vessel, easier it is for the blood to pass.
  • However, it does not depend on blood colloid osmotic pressure. Colloid osmotic pressure is created by the protein components of blood and they do not have any direct impact on blood flow.

What might happen if cytokinesis were omitted
Georgia [21]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Cytokinesis is the process by which the cytoplasm splits, forming two daughter cells from one parental cell. It occurs towards the end of mitosis, after the DNA has been replicated. The process of mitosis generates a cell with two nuclei, and cytokinesis ensures that each daughter cell receives one nucleus.

Without the process of cytokinesis, the physical process of the production of two cells from one parental cell would not occur, so the cell would not divide into two daughter cells.
