Pls help! Explain why blood pressure must decrease in the arterioles before entering the capillaries ahhhhh

Biology

this is because the blood flow slow through the capillaries to allow gaseous exchange. Plus the pressure is higher in capillaries because the diameter of the capillaries is smaller than arterioles

NNADVOKAT [17]

Hippocrates is credited with being the first person to believe that diseases were caused naturally, not because of superstition and gods. Hippocrates was credited by the disciples of Pythagoras of allying philosophy and medicine. It was in anatomy that Herophilus made his greatest contribution to medical science, conducting important anatomical investigations of the brain, eye, nervous and vascular systems, and the genital organs. He also wrote on obstetrics and gynecology and held an elaborate quantitative theory of the pulse

If the diameter of the afferent arterioles leading to the glomerulus increases (vasodilation) net filtration pressure will incre
Vinvika [58]

True. If the diameter of the afferent arterioles leading to the glomerulus increases due to vasodilation, which ultimately increases the net filtration pressure.

The filtration of blood occurs in the kidney, an excretory organ. The kidney is composed of numerous small units called nephrons, which is responsible for the blood filtration.

Glomerulus is part of nephron and the glomerular filtration occurs in the renal corpuscle of the kidney. This process is driven by hydrostatic and colloid osmotic pressure.

These pressures are collectively called net filtration pressure, which is influenced by the diameter of afferent arterioles.

If the arterioles constricts, net filtration pressure will decrease and if arterioles dilates, net filtration pressure will increase. This mechanism is regulated by neural, renal and hormonal regulation.

Atoms with a low ionization energy give up their outer valence electrons with ease true or false
umka2103 [35]

Answer: The given statement is true.

Explanation: Ionization energy is defined as the amount of energy required to remove an electron from the outermost shell of an isolated gaseous atom.

General equation of ionization energy is given by:

X(g)\rightarrow X^+(g)+e^-

  • If the outermost electron is loosely bound to the nucleus which means that the electron can be easily removed form an atom, it will require less amount of ionization energy.
  • And if the outermost electron is tightly bound to the nucleus which means that the electron cannot be removed easily from an atom. And hence, it will require more ionization energy.

Hence, the given statement is true.
