The Inhibins A and B Blood Test helps determine the levels of inhibin A and inhibin B in blood. It helps in diagnosing abnormalities in pregnancy, including preeclampsia (which is a dangerously high blood pressure during pregnancy) Along with AFP and uE3, inhibin A and inhibin B levels are also measured as a second-trimester screen for Down syndrome
A gill (/É¡Éªl/) is a respiratory organ found in many aquatic organisms that extracts dissolved oxygen from water and excretes carbon dioxide. The gills of some species, such as hermit crabs, have adapted to allow respiration on land provided they are kept moist.
In fishes, the water is taken from the mouth, projected through gills to absorb oxygen, and sent out through the gill slits (cartilaginous fish) or operculum (bony fish). The primary function of a gill involves a counter current system of flowing blood in the gill and water around the gill in opposite directions.osted on. by Naveen. Gills vs Lungs. Gills and lungs are the main tissues that provide gas-exchanging surfaces for the respiratory function of most of the higher animals. Primarily fish has gills while amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals have lungs for respiration or gas exchange.
