Which type of blood vessel usually carries oxygen-rich blood

Biology
1 answer:
zalisa [80]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Arteries

Explanation:

There are three main types of blood vessels: veins, arteries, and capillaries. Arteries are the blood vessels that carry the oxygenated blood from the heart to various body parts. Veins pick the deoxygenated blood and deliver it to the heart to be oxygenated.  

Arteries are the blood vessels with thick walls and no valves. Blood is pumped with higher pressure from the heart into arteries. The pulmonary artery is the only exception that carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs for oxygenation.

The signal for apoptosis can come from outside or inside the cell. Give one example when the signal comes from outside the cell
Svetach [21]

Answer:

- A signal for apoptosis that comes from outside the cell is when a cell detaches from extracellular matrix. If this happens, a transmembrane signal is triggered.

- Two examples of cellular occurrences that would prompt an apoptosis signal from inside the cell are:

1. Damaged DNA

2. Increase of cytosolic calcium concentration

Explanation:

Apoptosis can be activated from an intrinsic or an extrinsic pathway. The intrinsic pathway is activated when a cell senses stress (for example, damaged DNA or high cytosolic calcium concentration) and triggers death proteins to activate apoptosis mechanism inside of it; the extrinsic pathway refers to the apoptosis triggered by signals that come from other cells. In this scenario, ligands bind to cell-surface death receptors and activates a death-inducing signal.

Answer:

Viruses can be used to insert genetic material into cells during gene therapy

Explanation:

Gene therapy is a process used to introduce genetic material into cells to compensate for abnormal genes or to make a beneficial protein. If a mutated gene causes a necessary protein to be faulty or missing, gene therapy may be able to introduce a normal copy of the gene to restore the function of the protein.

A gene that is inserted directly into a cell usually does not function. Instead, a carrier called a vector is genetically engineered to deliver the gene. Certain viruses are often used as vectors because they can deliver the new gene by infecting the cell. The viruses are modified so they can't cause disease when used in people.
