Answer:

b. causes constriction of cerebral blood vessels in response to a drop in systemic blood pressure

Explanation:

No matter what happens or fluctuations occur in the blood pressure of body the blood pressure to the brain is always kept constant by the necessary changes and means possible. The blood value is always maintained at 50mL per 100g of Brain Tissue. The constriction of blood vessel keep the blood pressure normal to the brain in case of low blood pressure. Otherwise, it can have deadly consequences.

Answer:

Answer is C. Is abolished when abnormal high CO2 levels persist.

Explanation:

Autoregulation can be described or explained as an ability of some organs in the body, especially the brain in maintaining relatively constant blood flow despite changes in a pressure known as perfusion pressure.

Note that, the word 'perfusion' can be explained as the delivery of blood to a tissue through the circulatory system. The pressure that operate in this, i.e , that brings about the delivery of blood to a tissue is known as perfusion pressure.

In this case, it should be understood that, the persistence of abnormal high CO2 levels is one of the states that can abolished brain blood flow autoregulation. Others are brain tumor or stroke.

A virus is combined with a host cell in molten nutrient agar and then poured over a sterile nutrient agar plate. After the agar
maria [59]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The virus can infect the host.

Explanation:

  • As the host and the virus both remain in the agar plate, the virus is capable of infecting the host cells.
  • The host cell multiplies and grows by utilising the nutrient from the agar medium.
  • After the virus particles infect the host, they replicate inside the host and produce new progeny virions which get released out of the host cell by killing it.
  • The newly formed virions infect other host cells and the process continues.
  • The killing of the host cells by the viruses result in the generation of clear zones on the agar plate which is also known as the zone of exclusion.
  • In the zone of exclusion region, the host cells have been killed by the viruses.
