â Blood viscosity â Total blood vessel length â Blood vessel diameter Resistance â¢ Factors that remain relatively constant: â Blood viscosity â¢ The stickiness of blood due to formed elements and plasma proteins â¢ Increased viscosity = increased resistance â Blood vessel length â¢ Longer vessel = greater resistance encountered
Jasmonic acid (JA) is derived from the fatty acid linolenic acid. It is a member of the jasmonate class of plant hormones. It is biosynthesized from linolenic acid by the octadecanoid pathway.
In addition to containing sodium bicarbonate to neutralize the action of the digestive juices, pancreatic juice also contains a number of digestive enzymes (optimized to function in an alkaline environment) that help finish off the digestive process started in the stomach.
