Plaque Formation in Arteries: High levels of LDL cholesterol in the bloodstream can lead to formation of “plaques” in the arteries. What are the potential health consequences of coronary arteries being clogged by “plaques”? Name some specific foods that might be consumed to reduce dietary cholesterol. What do these foods contain that could help reduce dietary cholesterol?

PART II - DIRECTION: State whether each of the following indiçates NEGATIVE or POSITIVE feedback. Write your answer in the space provided before each number. (30 mins. with provision for analysis and writing your answer.) 1. The synthesis of an enzyme that creates the blood clot matrix is part of the complex biochemical mechanism. of blood clotting. This has a self-catalytic, or self-accelerating impact, which means that once the clotting process starts, it accelerates until the bleeding stops. 2. When blood pressure is high, the walls of arteries stretch. These walls' baroreceptors likewise stretch, causing a signal to be transmitted to the brain, which causes the body's heart rate to slow. This reduces blood pressure by slowing the flow of blood through the arteries. 3. When blood pressure lowers, baroreceptors become flaccid, and a signal is given to speed up the heart rate. '4. During childbirth stretching of the uterus triggers the secretion of the hormone oxytocin, which…
