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 gills are located in gill chambers at the rear of the mouth (pharynx). Water is taken in through the mouth, is forced through openings called gill slits, and then passes through the gill clefts, spaces between the ranks of delicate gills, bathing them continuously.n the process of animal evolution, gills first appear in annelid worms, in the form of simple, pectinate, or bipinnate plates and simple or branched filaments. They are located on the lateral motor appendages (in freely moving forms) or at the head end of the body (in those living in tubes).
