The correct answer is "High systolic, because when the heart pumps, the pressure inside the aorta would be greatest, causing the weak spot to rupture outward".

High systolic means the pressure generated due to the contraction of heart. As soon as heart will contract it will tend to squeeze out the blood accumulated inside it. Because of this out rush, this blood will enter the aorta and exert great pressure on the walls of the aorta. This high pressure will impact weak spot in the aorta adversely and cause it to bulge out.

<span>I believe the answer is,

High systolic, because when the heart pumps, the pressure inside the aorta would be greatest, causing the weak spot to rupture outward.

This indicates high blood pressure that causes rupture of the aorta or aorta dissection.</span>

strojnjashka [21]

Answer;

-In keratinized stratified squamous epithelial tissue, the cells on the apical (outer) surface are dead.

Explanation;

-Stratified squamous epithelium is a type of tissue found covering and lining parts of the body. Stratified squamous epithelium may be keratinized or nonkeratinized. Non-keratinized surfaces must be kept moist by bodily secretions to prevent them from drying out.

-The cells on the surface of stratified squamous keratinized epithelium are very flat. Not only are they flat, but they are no longer alive. They have no nucleus or organelles. They are filled with a protein called keratin, which is what makes our skin waterproof.

With the endosymbiotic hypothesis in mind, what structure within modern-day chloroplasts is likely derived from the cytoplasm of
Liono4ka [1.6K]

The chloroplasts had inner membrane

Explanation:

The primitive photoautotrophs utilized hydrogen sulphide as the electron donor to perform photosynthesis for energy production.  

Later upon understanding the endosymbiotic relationship of cyanobacteria which resided in the mitochondria of a eukaryotic host cell, the use of chloroplasts for photosynthesis was understood.  

Generations after generations led to the development of chloroplasts by the cyanobacteria due to this symbiotic relationships which developed into the chloroplasts.

The unique presence of the inner membrane and its components like the stroma, thyllakoids helped the organism to utilize water as the electron donor for photosynthesis like the present day eukaryotes. This is the main reason why cyanobacteria is considered as the ancestor for eukaryotes.
