Description of Atherosclerosis
Build up of plaque in artery wall which can eventually completely block
Visual clues on atherosclerosis heart
Narrowed blood vessels in cross section
Myocardial Infarction
Heart attack Blood and oxygen to heart is reduced resulting in death
Visual clues on myocardial infarction heart
Blockages in coronary arteries will see on outside of heart
Aortic Valve stenosis
Aortic valve narrows, partially obstructing blood flow
Visual clues of aortic valve stenosis
Aortic valve calcified and hard
Ventricular septal defect
Holes in between lower heart chambers
Visual clue on ventricular septal defect is a tunnel between left and right ventricle through muscle
True
Congestive Heart Failure
Heart cannot pump enough blood to body, walls of ventricles are thin and weak
Visual clues on congestive heart failure
Ventricles muscles very thin

Process of Transcription
-DNA is copied into mRNA in nucleus -mRNA produces RNA polymerase -thymine replaced with uracil
Process of translation
-in cytoplasm mRNA turns into amino acid sequence tRNA reads codon by codon and attaches to corresponding amino acid
Difference between autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant
