Answer:

brain complications

Explanation:

Children with sickle cell disease are at risk for brain damage because their irregularly shaped sickle cells can interrupt blood flow to the brain. Complete clogging of blood flow to the brain can lead to an “obvious” stroke.

I actually do not know this....does someone else?
Lerok [7]
Well, ask yourself, "Do I try hard enough?" "Was it the best I could do?" And well if the answer is yes, then you have nothing to stress out about too much. Maybe talk to your teacher and ask for extra credit. Get tutoring. Talk to a guidance counselor. If none of that helps, well then you're just not the best at the subject, but just try your best. In the future, you won't even remember about all those grades! Coming from a 6th grader, the beginning of the year was super hard. I'm not the best at math, but I'm very good at Language Arts. Everyone has their own weaknesses and strengths. Don't worry about it.

Explain how the release of sodium and chlorine would lead to a loss of water in the intestines
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) are two electrolytes that play important role in the absorption of water and nutrients in the small intestine. However, as mentioned in the question, the release of sodium and chlorine would lead to a loss of water in the intestines. This is because of the OSMOTIC phenomenon.

Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high concentration of water/low concentration of solute to a region of low concentration of water/high concentration of solute via a semipermeable membrane. In this case, the Na+ and Cl- ions serve as the solutes, which when released out of the intestine causes the solution in the intestines to be HYPOTONIC compared to the intestinal environment. This causes an OSMOTIC GRADIENT.

This osmotic gradient i.e. difference in concentration provokes osmotic flow of water from the intestines, which has a low solute/high water concentration, to the outside of the intestines, which has a high solute/low water concentration. Hence, water is lost from the intestine because the solute concentration becomes low when sodium and chlorine ions are released.
