Answer:

The inferior region of the brain stem, the <u>medulla oblongota</u> houses many vital autonomic centers involved in the control of heart rate, respiratory rhythm, and blood pressure.

Explanation:

The medulla oblongata is the part of the brain that joins the spinal cord and forms the lower part of the brain stem. In the bulb there are ascending (sensory) and descending (motor) fascicles that communicate the spinal cord with the brain, in addition to numerous nuclei or centers (masses of gray matter) that regulate various vital functions. The medulla oblongata has the function of controlling vital and unconscious elements such as the heartbeat and blood pressure. Thus, it is responsible for maintaining the heart rate and regulating vasoconstriction. Also, it manages the control of respiratory function, maintaining it at all times.

Humans have a gene, "T" that is involved in muscle formation of the tongue. Individuals with the one allele can roll their tongu
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Tongue-rolling is dominant, and both parents were heterozygous

Explanation:

Tongue rolling is a type of variation in human beings. When allelic genes are not identical as in Tt, the condition is referred to as heterozygous. An individual with such a genotypic condition is referred to as a heterozygote.

Both parents had a genotype of Tt and they could roll their tongues because T is dominant over the t gene.

              T     t

  T         TT   Tt

   t         Tt     tt

TT : Tt : tt

1 : 2 : 1

In a heterozygous parent Tt, the chance of producing T gamete from both parents is each 1/2 each. Similarly the chance of forming t gamete is 1/2. Therefore, the chance of gamete T and t fusing to get genotype Tt is 1/2*1/2=1/4.

The ratios of phenotypes are 3/4 will be able to roll the tongue and 1/4 will not be able to roll the tongue.

The mode of inheritance was monohybrid inheritance since one characteristic like tongue-rolling is controlled by a single pair of hereditary factors contributed by both parents.

Blood pressure falls with distance from the heart. Using this information, which of the following properly lists the type of blo
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- arteries→capillaries→veins

Explanation:

The circulation of blood in the closed circulatory system flows through blood vessels. These blood vessels show structural differences in response to the pressure exerted by the blood on the surrounding medium.

The blood pressure varies in the circulatory system because the heart pumps the blood with a greater force, so the blood vessel called arteries which carries the blood from the heart posses thicker walls.

The blood pressure reduces until the blood reaches the organs, the blood pressure reduces. Thus the blood in the capillaries has lower pressure.

When blood exits from the organs back to the heart, then the blood pressure is highly reduced as a result, the veins carry the blood with lower pressure.

Thus, arteries→capillaries→veins are the correct answer.
