Nitrogen released from the breakdown of proteins is used in the synthesis of urea, which is excreted by the kidneys in the urine.

  • The urea acid cycle transforms the nitrogen waste released during this process into urea, which is then excreted in the urine.
  • Amino acids can be converted into energy during famine and go via the Krebs cycle.
  • Muscle protein is broken down into amino acids while fasting, some of which are partially oxidized to provide energy.
  • These amino acids are split up into alanine and glutamine, which are released into the circulation together with other amino acids.
  • Several tissues, notably the stomach and kidney, oxidize glutamine, converting some of its carbons and nitrogen to alanine.
  • The liver is where alanine and other amino acids are processed into glucose and ketone bodies and nitrogen.

What is the resistance of a 20-cm-long column of blood in this artery? assume that resistivity of blood is equal to 1.6 ωm.
Alinara [238K]
The way in which you need to solve this is by using the formula:
<span>R = ρL/A 
</span>That one is the formula that demonstrates <span>Resistance of a wire in Ω.
The formula can be explained like this: 
</span><span>ρ is resistivity of the material in Ω-m </span>
<span>L is length in meters </span>
<span>A is cross-sectional area in m² </span>
<span>A = πr², r is radius of wire in m 
As soon as you have your numbers, you can replace and proceed to get the asnwer</span>

What would Iraq have to do in order to reach a zero growth rate? What kinds of challenges might the Iraqi government face in try
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Iraq will have to massively reduce the birth rate to achieve a zero growth rate. In the middle east, there is more sexual freedom which may cause sexual education to be useless. Iraqi government would most likely have to give widespread contraception to its citizens.They would either have to lower birth rates or increase death rates. It would be more practical for the Iraqi government to provide contraception's and sexual education among its citizens to decrease birth rates.

Which factor allows earth to hold onto liquid water?
vesna_86 [32]
I think the correct answer would be strong gravity. The factor that allows the earth to hold onto water would be the strong gravitational pull of the earth. In fact, it is what holds everything onto earth not only water. Hope this answers the question.
