Answer: Option A. "Cytoskeleton"

Explanation:

Cytoskeleton can be defined as the network of protein filaments in the cytoplasm eukaryotic cells interlinking from cell nucleus to cell membrane.

There are three basic types of protein fibers present in cytoskeleton that includes micro filaments (Actin filaments ), microtubules and intermediate filaments.

Microfilaments are consist many linked monomers of a protein known as actin, that combines in a double helix with a diameter of about 7 nano-meter and functions as serving tracks for myosin (motor protein).

Microtubules are arranged in a form of hollow straw like structure made up of consist of tubulin proteins having diameter of about 25 nano-meter and further consist of two subunits, α-tubulin and β-tubulin.

Intermediate filaments are the cytoskeletal element which are made up of multiple strands of fibrous proteins wounded together having an average diameter of 8 to 10 nano-meter.

If a non-diabetic takes diabetic medicines, what happens?
vodomira [7]

Diabetic medicines are made to lower the level of glucose by increasing the amount of insulin. If a non-diabetic patient will take this medication, then it will result in a decreased glucose level.

<h3>What are the hormones controlling the level of glucose?</h3>

The hormones are the chemicals released by endocrine gland to control and coordinate bodily functions.

The pancreas release the hormones called insulin and glucagon that regulates the blood glucose level.

Insulin helps to lower the level of glucose and glucagon increases the glucose level.

In the case of diabetes, the pancreas decreases the production of insulin which leads to increased blood glucose levels.

As to maintain normal level, some medications or in some cases insulin injections are given to the patient to maintain the normal glucose level.

If a non-diabetic person will take this medication, then it will lead to decreased glucose level that results in fainting, dizziness, etc.

What is blood pressure a measurement of exactly?
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

The blood pressure is the measure of the strength by which the blood pushes against the side of the blood vessels when it circulates inside the body.

Explanation:

When heart beats, the heart pumps the blood around the body to supply energy/oxygen to the various parts of the body where it is needed.

<u>As the blood circulates, it pushes against sides of blood vessels. The strength of pushing of the blood is measured by blood pressure. Most of the pressure is due to the work done by the heart in pushing the blood.</u>

It is measure by using sphygmomanometer. Two numbers are used to measure the blood pressure.

<u>Systolic blood pressure is the first digit used for measuring blood pressure and it measures pressure in blood vessels when heart beats. </u>

<u>Disystolic blood pressure is the second digit used for measuring blood pressure and it measures the pressure of blood in the vessels when heart is resting between beats.</u>
