<span>As blood moves away from the heart toward the tissues, the relative size of blood vessels decreases, the blood pressure drops, and the velocity of blood flow slows.
The size of the arteries progressively decreases as they branch out from the major arteries of the body. Once the arteries are the size of the arterioles, the resistance to blood flow increases and velocity of blood flow slows then blood pressure drops.

Answer: no ss.. or question
Explanation:
Answer:
b) opening calcium pores in the membrane
Explanation:
The opening of calcium ions channels facilitates the migration of vesicles containing neurotransmitters in the pre-synaptic neurons to the tip of the post-synaptic membrane. at the <u>neuromuscular junction </u>These neurotransmitters can either be <u>cholinergic or non-chorlinergic.</u> <u>At the tip of the pre-synaptic membranes the vesicles empty their neurotransmitter contents into the synapse.</u>
The neurotransmitters, diffuse through the neuromuscular junction to bind with the receptors on the <u>post-synaptic membrane on the post-synaptic neuron.</u> This stimulates opening of<u> ligand gated sodium ions,</u> and sodium ions diffuse into the post-synaptic neuronal membrane, to cause <u>depolarization</u>. if the stimulus is up to the threshold levels it generate action potential.
Therefore , more calcium ions channels opening produces; more diffusion of neurotransmitters;leading to opening of more sodium channels for depolarization; and IPSP or EPSP generation.
In the small intestine, cells contain microvilli, which are tiny hair-like projections that increase nutrient absorption. These projections increase the surface area of the small intestine allowing more area for nutrients to be absorbed.
The tissue in the wall of the uterus that is required for labor contractions are SMOOTH MUSCLES. Smooth muscles, also known as involuntary muscles are found in walls of hollow organs such as the stomach, gullet, bronchi, etc. Smooth muscles principally function as stimulator for movement. Examples of smooth muscles in the human body include:
1.Uterus smooth muscles: enhancing pushing during birth labour
2. Bladder smooth muscle: helps push out urine.
3. Smooth muscles also help the flow of blood in the blood vessels and the flow of food through the digestive system.<span />
