Since your heart and lungs are both involved in the transportation of the oxygen to the tissues and the removal of carbon dioxide, any problems occurring to these systems can affect breathing.
B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) reflect the systolic and diastolic activity of the heart and its blood levels can show any heart failure. A BNP test and can help the nurse decide whether the cause of the dyspnea is a heart failure or some respiratory problem.

yan [13]

The two sources of information used to direct the expression of genes during various stages of development are Transcription and Translation.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Both of them combined is called gene expression.Transcription is the process of sharing information stored in a DNA to RNA. The process of translation is carried out in cytoplasm. Here, the mRNA, in which stands for messenger, send messages to a more complex and specialized molecule called the ribosome. The sequence present on the mRNA base is read by the ribosome.

Transcription takes place in nucleus and translation takes place in Cytoplasam. The products of transcription are mRNA, tRNA, rRNA. The products of translation are Proteins.
