How would homeostasis be affected if the cardiac muscle stopped contracting?

Biology
1 answer:
vodka [1.7K]3 years ago

The heart is a muscle, therefore, if the cardiac muscles stopped contracting, the result would be the ceasing of heart function. That would lead to death, as blood wouldn't be pumped throughout the body. Homeostasis would therefore be interrupted.

Most of the joints in the appendicular skeleton are __________ joints.
Semmy [17]

Most of the joints in the appendicular skeleton are synovial joints.

So, the correct option is (c).

  • A joint, sometimes referred to as an articulation, is where two or more bones come together. The names of two bones are included in each articulation.
  •  Immobile joints are ones that do not permit movement at the joint sites .These joints don't have a joint cavity; instead, dense fibrous connective tissue, typically collagen, holds the bones physically together.
  • A synovial membrane-lined joint capsule that produces synovial fluid surrounds and protects the two of them.
  • Specialized joints known as cartilaginous joints can be identified by their structural characteristics.
  • In fibrous joints, white connective tissue  fibres that travel from one articulating portion to the next separate the articulating parts.

9. Consider the below Punnett square cross. Explain how you could use it to determine which parent
kogti [31]

Answer: The father determines the biological sex of a baby

Explanation: Human beings have two sex chromosomes, males have XY chromosomes whereas females have XX chromosomes. During fertilization, an egg from a woman fuses with a sperm cell from a man to form a zygote. Women have two X chromosomes (XX) and any point in time they can only release an egg bearing an X chromosome but males have one X and one Y chromosome, therefore they can either release a sperm cell with an X chromosome or a sperm cell with a Y chromosome. When an egg with X-chromosome fuses with a sperm cell with an X chromosome, the resulting baby is a female but when an egg with an X chromosome fuses with a sperm cell with a Y chromosome, the resulting baby is a male.

What makes the difference in both sexes is the Y chromosome from the man, therefore the father determines the biological sex of a baby.

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and other vasodilators are used in the early treatment of heart failure. They act
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Option c. cause pooling of the blood and decreased venous return to the heart

Explanation:

The ACE inhibitors increases the diameter of the blood vessels (vasodilation) that improves the flow of blood. This reduces the work load on the heart. At the time of heart failure, a substance called angiotensin is released. This angiotensin formation is blocked by the ACE inhibitors. Angiotensin is involved in narrowing the blood vessels.

The ACE cause pooling of the blood and decreased venous return to the heart. The ACE inhibitors causes vasodilation that allows decrease in blood pressure. So, there is no increase in arterial pressure, aldosterone and loss of volume. Thus, option C is correct.
