Which pressure is associated with blood flow to organs?

Biology
1 answer:
oee [108]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

In humans, blood pressure is usually measured indirectly with a special cuff over the brachial artery (in the arm) or the femoral artery (in the leg). There are two pressures measured: (1) the systolic pressure (the higher pressure and the first number recorded), which is the force that blood exerts on the artery walls as the heart contracts to pump the blood to the peripheral organs and tissues, and (2) the diastolic pressure (the lower pressure and the second number recorded), which is residual pressure exerted on the arteries as the heart relaxes between beats. In healthy individuals, systolic pressure is normally between 90 and 120 millimetres of mercury (mmHg).

Fastest neurons can send impulses at miles per hour
forsale [732]
The answer is 250 miles per hour.

To communicate, neurons send impulses to other neurons or muscle cells. Depending on the nature of information needed to be sent, some impulses are faster than the other. For example, if a person burns its hand, the information must be quickly sent to the central nervous system for quick reaction. Some impulses can achieve 250 miles per hour. But, for this, axon must be well insulated and very thick.

As the size of a cell increases
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The correct answers are-

a. Its metabolic demands increase.

b. It's surface area-to-volume ratio decreases.

c. Its ability to transport enough nutrients in and transport wastes out to meet cellular metabolic demands decreases.

Explanation:

As the size of a cell increases the surface area to volume ratio decrease. So a big cell has less surface area and small volume. Therefore surface area for transfer of metabolic substance per unit volume decreases so the cell's ability to transport enough nutrients in and transport wastes out to meet cellular metabolic demands also decreases.

But due to an increase in the volume of the cell the metabolic demand of cell increases because a larger cell requires more nutrients than a smaller cell to survive which can not be fulfilled efficiently due to less surface-area-to-volume ratio.

Therefore the correct answer is a, b, and c.

The steps you follow in your experiment
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer and explanation;

The steps followed in an experiment include;

taking note of something such as a curious phenomenon worth further thought and investigation

-Research; it involves forming a question so as to find out more about the natural phenomenon observed.

-Hypothesis, this is an informed guess as to the possible answer of the question.Its purpose is not to arrive at the perfect answer to the question but to provide a direction to further scientific investigation.

-Experiment, the hypothesis formed must be tested by conducting a well designed and controlled experiment. Its is an important step as it proves whether the hypothesis is correct or wrong.

-Analysis; it entails taking down the results and analyzing it together with the data and suing it to draw conclusion regarding the strength of the hypothesis.

-Conclusion; From the analysis a conclusion about the hypothesis can be drawn, explaining why the phenomenon occurs.

-Publish; the results may then be published as a reference and for future use and comparison.
