Answer: Stem cell research has the potential to treat diseases that are currently burdened with high health care costs—especially chronic conditions such as heart disease, Alzheimer's disease or diabetes, the costs of which threaten to cripple the healthcare system.
Answer:
The correct answer is option A, that is, stimulate smooth muscle contraction.
Explanation:
A group of lipids and a hormone that plays an essential role in monitoring the process of the formation of blood clots, stimulation of labor, the flow of blood and inflammation is known as prostaglandins. The hormone prostaglandin takes part in various kinds of body functions like the relaxation and contraction of the smooth muscles at the time of childbirth, monitoring blood pressure, dilation and constriction of blood vessels, and produce inflammation at the site of infection or tissue damage.
Prostaglandins possess five-membered rings and are obtained from the fatty acid, arachidonic acid. At the time of blood vessel injury, thromboxane, that is, a form of prostaglandin enhances the process of blood clot formation so that the injury site gets heal quickly.
An example of this is to whether smoke cigarette or not. People smoke whenever they feel anxious with their activities but they were thinking that it is not a habit, but in the end, they will be used to it that is why they tend to forget how to live without smoking.
