Answer:

Tricuspid valve is a structure present between right atrium and right ventricle. It is a one way valve composed of three flaps, hence the name. Blood flows from right atrium to right ventricle via it. It also prevents back flow of blood to atrium.

If a water filled right ventricle is squeezed, it will try to flow back into the right atrium. At this moment, the flaps of tricuspid valve will move upwards in horizontal position. As a result, the valve will close and water will not flow back to the right atrium.

Answer: The answer is B- Diffusion of calcium ions through NMDA receptors.

Explanation:

Phantom limb pain (PLP) is a painful sensation experienced after the loss or amputation of a limb. The limb is no longer there but the individual can still feel real and severe pains in the limb. This occurs soon after surgery.

NMDA is a receptor for Glutamate which is an excitatory neurotransmitter. The activation of NMDA receptors are associated with hyperalgesia which is an abnormally heightened sensitivity to pain.
