Answer:

1. When the left ventricle contracts, a portion of the blood flows through the mitral valve into the left atrium. Turbulent flow within the valve results in a systolic murmur, causing the atrium to become overfilled and dilated.
2. Some blood returning through the mitral valve means less blood is ejected into the aorta, leading to an ejection fraction of just 43%.
3. The reduced flow into the aorta results in lower SBP. The baroreceptor reflex triggers an increase in heart rate; the left ventricle's wall, under stress, thickens.
4. Due to being partly filled with blood from the ventricle, the left atrium can receive less blood from the lungs, causing the lungs to become fluid-overloaded, leading to difficulties in breathing.

Explanation:

A murmur arises from abnormal heart blood flow. It produces unusual sounds heard between heartbeats. A systolic murmur happens when heart muscles contract, within the intervals defined by S1 and S2.

From the information presented, it appears Mr. G is suffering from mitral regurgitation. This condition occurs when the mitral valve fails to close tightly, causing blood to flow back from the left ventricle into the left atrium.

Answer:

What does she require from the food consumed and the air inhaled to successfully complete her run?

A. To support her jogging, Rosa needs food that is rich in carbohydrates (like bread). It is not advisable for her to consume protein-rich items just before exercise unless she is following a weight loss regimen.

B. To carry out aerobic respiration, Rosa requires oxygen, which is crucial for maximizing energy release (36 molecules produced per reaction). In contrast, anaerobic reactions produce lesser energy (2 ATP molecules per reaction) and are not ideal.

How do Rosa's body systems collaborate to transport the necessary molecules into her cells?

For her body cells to engage in aerobic respiration and release energy efficiently, they depend on carbohydrates (glucose) and oxygen. These molecules travel through diffusion into the bloodstream. While she jogs, the complex carbs in bread (like starch) break down into simpler glucose molecules, which then diffuse into the blood. Concurrently, increased oxygen is delivered to the cells through faster blood circulation, assisted by the rapid pumping action of the lungs and heart. This collective function ensures both glucose and oxygen are provided to cells, where they are utilized by mitochondria to create ATP energy molecules.

How do hair cells utilize these molecules for energy release allowing her to run?

Once glucose and oxygen enter the bloodstream, they are absorbed into cells, directed to mitochondria which convert them into energy in the form of ATP. Mitochondria are aptly referred to as the cell's powerhouse. Within each cell, energy release occurs in a sequence comprising glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. In this process, glucose reacts with oxygen, ultimately creating 36 ATP molecules per reaction run, sufficient to meet high energy demands. During exercise, both oxygen and glucose are supplied more rapidly due to the accelerated activity of the lungs and heart.

PS: Anaerobic respiration is not able to meet higher energy demands as it yields only 2 ATP per reaction.

Response: a) true
