Which compensatory mechanism of veins can diminish stress on the heart when blood volume increases significantly

Biology
1 answer:
ArbitrLikvidat [17]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

This mechanism, known as the skeletal muscle pump (Figure 6), helps the lower-pressure veins counteract the force of gravity, increasing pressure to move blood back to the heart.

How do cells release <br> Energy in the process of cellular respiration
White raven [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are two types of respiration:

1. Aerobic respiration  

2. Anaerobic respiration

Aerobic respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP

Anaerobic Respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen and produce small amount of energy. Alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide are also produced as byproducts.  

Glucose→ lactic acid/alcohol + 2ATP + carbon dioxide

This process use respiratory electron transport chain as electron acceptor instead of oxygen. It is mostly occur in prokaryotes. Its main advantage is that it produce energy (ATP) very quickly as compared to aerobic respiration

How do enzymes affect the activation energy of a reaction
Kitty [74]
Catalysts lower the Activation energy for reactions. The lower the activation energy for a reaction,the faster the rate. Thus enzymes speed up reactions by lowering activation energy. Many enzymes change shape when substrate ms bind.

How could genetic drift explain differences in the genotype frequencies among the caucasian and aborigine populations?
Novay_Z [31]

Genetic drift occurs when there is no random mating across a population. This causes a change in allelic frequency due to a random sampling of the population.

As the aboriginal population explored the earth,  a small part of the population became geographically isolated either due to continental drift and climate changes. As the isolated population grew bigger, they established their own gene pool. This resulted a change in genotypic frequencies from that of the aboriginal population.

Structure of bronchi definition
Korvikt [17]
The bronchi (singular: bronchus) are the airways that lead from the trachea into the lungs, and then branch into smaller bronchioles. Structurally, the bronchi are made up of cartilage that gives them stability and prevents their collapse.
