Question

An evil mastermind has created three new poisons. One interferes with gap junction function, another stimulates sebaceous glands, and a third inhibits goblet cell function. Recently, an unusually high rate of cardiac arrest has plagued the emergency rooms of local hospitals. Which poison is most likely to be responsible?

Answer 1

The poison that blocks gap junctions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cardiac arrest can be caused by any known heart condition.Some reasons of cardiac arrests are as following:-

1. Electrical abnormalities.
2. A thickened heart.
3. Heart medication.
4. Blood Vessel Abnormalities.
5. Use of Recreational Drugs.

So the poison that interferes with the gap junction function is the main cause of the cardiac arrests.
