The answer is left to right shunt

Ductus arteriosus is a vessel that connect the pulmonary artery with the aorta. Normally, ductus arteriosus will be closed to prevent backflow. Patent ductus arteriosus happens when it doesn't closed.

Since aorta pressure is higher than pulmonary, left to right shunt will be happens. The blood that flow to the lungs will be increased while blood flow to the systemic decreased.

Which organelle is responsible for wilting?
makkiz [27]

Vacuole is the answer.

Wilting is the loss of rigidity of non woody parts of plants and occurs when turgor pressure falls. 

The vacuole controls turgor pressure. Turgor pressure dictates the rigidity of the cell and is associated with the difference between the osmotic pressure inside and outside the cell.

When a plant receives adequate amounts of water, the central vacuoles of its cells swell as the liquid collects within them creating a high level of turgor pressure which helps maintain the structural integrity of the plant along with the support of the cell wall.

In the absence of enough water , central vacuoles shrink and turgor pressure is reduced  compromising the plant's rigidity so that wilting takes place.
