_ play at least some role in regulating breathing - cns, motor pathways, somatic nervous system, autonomic nervous system a key aspect of cooperative binding by hemoglobin is that - it permits rapid uptake of oxygen in the lungs and greater delivery of oxygen once blood reaches capillaries in the body's tissues A shark's blood contains low concentration of ions but relatively high concentration of urea. This increases their blood osmolarity so that it is nearly osmotic with seawater. Base...

Nicotine increases atherosclerosis by the release of which neurotransmitter? (Points : 0.5) Histamine Nitric oxide Angiotensin II Epinephrine - D. Epinephrine Nicotine stimulates the release of catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinephrine), which increases the HR and causes peripheral vascular constriction. As a result, blood pressure increases as do both cardiac workload and oxygen demand. The pulsus paradoxus that occurs as a result of pericardial effusion is caused by a dysfuncti...
