When you relax the smooth muscles in arteries, it affects the blood pressure quite a lot. If you're a up and running person, you're most likely not always relaxed. Although - if you manage to relax, it would cause your blood pressure to lower from a high rate, to a much lower rate. That's the main outcome of this.

Answer:

Relaxing the smooth muscles in arteries would lower down the blood pressure.

Explanation:

Smooth muscles are present in lining of blood vessels. Relaxing the smooth muscles in arteries causes vasodilation, that is, the cavity of arteries is widened. Dilated arteries allow more blood to pass through them and lower down the blood pressure. Constriction of smooth muscles of arteries causes vasoconstriction and increases blood pressure.

Answer:

given, mother and father are heterozygotes.

let, father has B blood group and mother has A blood group.

then their heterozygous genotypes are --

father = iB, iO and mother = iA, iO

punnett square will be,

iB iO

iA iA iB iA iO

iO iB iO iO iO

the genotypes of their progeny will be, iAiB , iAiO ,iBiO and iOiO

and phenotypes will be 3 are heterozygous and 1 is homozygous.

At the boundary of every cell, the __________ functions as a selective barrier that allows sufficient passage of oxygen, nutrien

Vinil7 [7]

The cell membrane functions as a selective barrier. We call these kind of membranes as differentially permeable or semi permeable membrane. It can decide what substances can pass in and out. Therefore it can surround the cytoplasm (which is the inside of a cell) to separate the cell's content from the surroundings.
