In fetal life, the lungs are not expanded, so most of the blood from the right ventricle is shunted from the pulmonary artery to the aorta through the patent ductus arteriosus. With a few breaths the lungs expand, and blood flows from right ventricle to pulmonary artery into the lungs. Withdrawal of circulating prostaglandin from the mother plus bradykinins released from the expanding lung of the infant cause the ductus to close over a few minutes to hours. The closed ductus remains as the ligamentum arteriosum.
Answer:
A) 6
Explanation:
Complex III of the electron transport chain transfers four protons across the membrane during aerobic respiration, per pair of electrons. In the other hand, complex IV is responsible for transporting two protons (per pair of electrons) across the membrane.
If the given compound injects a pair of electron into complex III, four protons will accumulated due to complex III activity and then two more protons as these electrons move forward to complex IV. This means a total of 6 protons being transported to intermembrane space.
Answer:
Velocity
Explanation:
Given the change in positive (direction) over time we are given the velocity formula.
V = Change in direction/Change in time
Since we are given a direction we can rule out speed as well as direction in itself. We can also rule out acceleration because that is the change in Velocity divided by change in time.
Answer: Plasma
Explanation:
Plasma is the liquid component of blood.
