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

Biology
1 answer:
vodka [1.7K]3 years ago
4 0

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.

Biology End of Year Cornerstone Assessment
marshall27 [118]

Answer: hypothesized that the higher pH levels would increase the rate

of movement of the Artemia. The students placed the Artemia in petri dishes with 2 mm x 2

mm grids marked off on the bottom of the dishes. The students calculated how fast the Artemia

traveled in each pH (4-9) solution by counting the number of squares on the grid that the

Artemia crossed per second of timing.

The data collected from their experiment is presented below:

Apoptosis involves all but which of the following?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Apoptosis does not involve:

c. lysis of the cell

Explanation:

Apoptosis is a programmed cell death that occurs under normal physiological conditions and in a controlled manner. Normally seen in cell turnover, embryogenesis, also involved in processes of immune, nervous and endocrine systems.

The main morphological and biochemical changes seen during the apoptosis are the fragmentation of DNA by endonucleases, nuclear, chromatin and cytoplasmatic condensation, apoptotic bodies formation (membrane bound-vesicles form of cell parts) and the phagocytosis (digestion) of those bodies by the scavenger cells.

Apoptosis is regulated by cell- signaling pathways, the caspases, a family of cysteine proteases, are the ones involved in the process.

In the process there is no lysis of the cell as this could lead to a inflammatory response (just happens in necrosis) which would affect contiguous cells, and will involve immune cells. In apoptosis there is just a membrane blebbing, but it does not loss its integrity.

What is one way that temperature affects mechanical weathering?
Ket [755]

Answer:

Temperature changes can also contribute to mechanical weathering in a process called thermal stress. Changes in temperature cause rock to expand (with heat) and contract (with cold). As this happens over and over again, the structure of the rock weakens.
