Blood flow through an arteriole when it dilates.
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option C - increases.

Explanation:

The dilation or vaso-dilation is the widening or increase in the diameter of the blood vessels- arteries, arteriole and veins.  

The vasodilation is caused by the relaxation of the smooth muscle which results in the increased flow of the blood through these vessels due to a decrease in the vascular resistance.

Thus, option C - increases are the correct answer.

Which of th following is needed for cellular respiration to occur
yanalaym [24]
The molecule necessary for respiration to occur in both plants and animals is NADH or Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Hydride. This compound is necessary for cellular development and energy pro­duction: It's crucial to produce energy from the food one consumes. It's also the principal carrier of electrons in the energy-producing process in the cells.

OR

Cellular respiration requires energy from an organic source (ie- glucose and oxygen). Without these, the reactions cannot take place. Oxygen is also needed. It acts as the final electron acceptor in electron transport.
