The purple color of potassium permanganate gradually spreads throughout the water in the jar by the process of diffusion.

  • Diffusion is the process of movement of a substance from the region of higher concentration to the regions of lower concentration. Diffusion occurs in liquids as well as gases.
  • Potassium permanganate is a purple color compound, when it is added in a jar of water it spreads throughout the water by the virtue of diffusion.
  • The concentration of potassium permanganate is higher at one point and the other regions in the jar have its nil or low concentrations initially, this leads to the set up of a concentration gradient.
  • As time passes diffusion occurs and the particles of potassium permanganate keep on migrating to the regions of low concentration until the concentration is uniform throughout the jar. Ultimately, it spread throughout the jar making the water purple.

<h2>Glucose production by liver</h2>

Explanation:

  • Most of this secretory organ comprises of acinar or exocrine cells that discharge the pancreatic juice containing stomach related compounds, for example, amylase, pancreatic lipase, and trypsinogen, into the pipes, that is, the fundamental pancreatic and the extrapancreatic channel
  • The endocrine cells are bunched together, along these lines shaping the supposed islets of Langerhans, which are little, island-like structures inside the exocrine pancreatic tissue that represents just 1–2% of the whole organ
  • drop in glucose triggers the arrival of glucagon by the pancreas. in the liver, glucagon enacts glycogen phosphorylase by animating its cAMP-subordinate phosphorylation and invigorates gluconeogenesis by bringing down [fructose 2,6 bisphosphate] consequently animating FB Pase-1
