What are the two circuits of the cardiovascular system? What does it mean to say that the cardiovascular system is a closed syst

em? What would happen if there was less blood pumped to the systemic circuit than the pulmonary circuit?

Answer:

The two circuits of the cardiovascular system are: Pulmonary Circuit and Systematic Circuit. The pulmonary circuit is shorter than the systemic and is responsible for carrying deoxygenated blood to the lungs from the right atrium, for oxygenation. The systemic circuit is longer and leaves the aortic artery, carrying oxygenated blood throughout the body and nutrients for survival. If less blood were pumped into the systemic circuit, this amount would not be sufficient to compensate for the organism's needs, with the corresponding consequences that this would entail.  

It is said that the cardiovascular system is a closed system because blood travels inside a network of blood vessels without leaving them.

Fed [463]

Answer:

h - height

Explanation:

gravitational potential energy = m * g * h

m stands for mass. Mass doesn't change in physics

g stands for gravitational acceleration. It is a constant.

h stands for height. When the skater moves up and down the track the height from the ground changes. Therefore this variable does change.

Explain the relationship among
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

There is an important relationship among  homeostasis, defective mitochondria, and the  symptoms caused by LHON.

Explanation:

There is a great relationship among  homeostasis, defective mitochondria and the  symptoms caused by LHON because defective mitochondria disturbs the homeostasis in the body. If mitochondria works properly, homeostasis will be maintained whereas if there is any defect occurs in the mitochondria then the whole homeostasis will be adversely affected because mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell responsible for the production of energy for the cell. Symptoms occurs due to Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) also effected the state of equilibrium in the body.

The syntenic genes A and Z are linked. A cross between two parents, AAZZ and aazz, produces F1 progeny with the AaZz genotype. W
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The possible arrangements of alleles on the F1 progeny's chromosomes will be AZ/Az or aZ/az

Explanation:

The genotype of F1 progeny  is AaZz

The allele pair of gametes would contain one allele for characteristic represented by "A or a" and other allele for characteristic represented by Z or z"

Thus, total four allele pairs will be formed.

First allele pair would be - AZ

Second allele pair would be - Az

Third allele pair would be - aZ

Fourth allele pair would be - az

Hence, the possible arrangements of alleles on the F1 progeny's chromosomes will be AZ/Az or aZ/az
