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.

valkas [14]

Answer: A. Geological processes continue over millions of years.  

A swamp is a wetland which exhibit the growth of vegetation. It consist of vegetation which is being dominated by trees. When these trees die, the wooden parts sank below the water. The wood remains being deposited at the bottom of the water body causes the formation of coal. Coal formation results due to the wood being compressed and buried. It takes millions of years for the transformation of wood into coal in the geosphere of the swamp region.

Hence, formation of coal is a geological process and it takes millions of years for it's formation.

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The correct answer is a inducer(lactose) = acts by stepping on the gas pedal.

Explanation:

In lac operon lactose act as an inducer.Lactose exerts its action by binding with the repressor and inducing a conformation al change in the repressor molecule and prevent the later from binding to the operator region.

   This ultimately result in the expression of the structural genes such as Lac Z ,Lac Y and Lac A.

  According to the given question if the lac operon is described using a car analogy then the inducer lactose will act by stepping on the the gas pedal and this is the positive regulation of Lac operon.

Possible contaminate will be Proteus or Salmonella. To differentiate the two genera urease test can be accomplished. However, urease test, Proteus will produce a positive test result.

This test can be done to determine the ability of an organism to split urea. The principle of urease test is that urea is the product of decarboxylation of amino acid. Splitting of urea via hydrolysis will produce ammnonia and CO2. The CO2 produce allows the formation of bubbles.

What is caused by the high water content in magma?
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Water and Magma Are an Explosive Combination If the water content of magma is high, an explosive eruption is more likely. ... If the magma quickly moves to the surface, pressure suddenly decreases and the water and other compounds become gases. E. As gases expand rapidly, an explosion can result.
