<span>Older patients are more prone to a decrease in blood pressure upon standing because </span>the body is less able to adapt the BP to rapid postural changes.
When a patient standing, some of the blood come to the leg. With less blood, the heart is harder to maintain its pressure.
The body will respond with constricting the vessel or increasing heart muscle power. But in an elderly patient, this response is weaker. Some of the older patients also consume a drug that will disturb this mechanism.
Answer:
It is in hypotonic case.
Explanation:
The plant cell is in hypotonic case because the the solute concentration outside the cell is lower than in the cell. Plant cell do not burst in hypotonic solution because they have a cellulose cell wall outside its cell membrane. The cell wall is permeable and it's prevent the cell from bursting after it absorb water through osmosis.
Answer:
C. The green allele is recessive to the yellow allele
Explanation:
Complete dominance occurs when one gene variant or allele referred to as the 'dominant allele' completely masks the expression of another allele referred to as the 'recessive allele' in heterozygous individuals, i.e., in individuals carrying one copy of the dominant allele and one copy of the recessive allele for a particular locus/gene (whereas homo-zygous individuals carry the same alleles for a given locus/gene). Mendel crossed pure lines of pea plants, i.e., homo-zygous lines for different traits such as seed color (yellow and green) and seed shape (round and wrinkled). In this case, the parental cross was YY x yy, where the 'Y' allele is dominant and encodes for yellow seed color, and the 'y' allele is recessive and encodes for green seed color. From this cross, Mendel obtained a hybrid F1 (i.e., all progeny was heterozygous with genotype Yy). An expected 3:1 ratio as observed in this case (6,022 yellow and 2,001 green seed >> 3:1 ratio) is characteristic of the progeny that results from mating between F1 heterozygous parents, where each parent has one dominant allele and one recessive allele, i.e., F1 parental cross: Yy x Yy >> F2: 1/4 YY (yellow color); 1/2 Yy (yellow color); 1/4 (green color) >> 3:1 ratio of yellow to green seeds.
Electron sharing occurs so that atoms attain the configurations of noble gases
Answer:
four daughter cells are produced during meiosis
Explanation:
four daughter cells that are haploid, which means they contain half the number of chromosomes of the diploid parent cell.
