When collagen in the wall of a blood vessel is exposed as a result of injury, platelets adhere and develop long, spiny pseudopods which draw the vessel walls back together.

  • The blood vessel wall's structural component, collagen, is typically hidden beneath the cells that line the blood vessels' inner walls.
  • Collagen that is exposed when a blood vessel is damaged draws platelets from the circulation, resulting in blood clotting.
  • Additionally, collagen is essential for regulating blood vessel wall cell function.
  • They examine which pieces adhere to various blood vessel wall proteins. This enables them to pinpoint the collagen's essential components, such as those that regulate platelets and blood vessel wall cells.
  • Small blood cells called platelets assist your body in forming clots to halt bleeding. Your blood vessels communicate with the platelets when they sustain injury.
  • When there is damage, the platelets immediately create a plug (clot) to repair it.

When a soccer ball is in flight, what forces are acting on it?
jeka94

Answer:

Force applied on the ball when it is kicked, gravitation pull and frictional force

Explanation:

When the ball is kicked it starts accelerating, the moment when it leaves the foot acceleration starts decreasing. Here two more forces start acting on it, one is friction force caused by wind and second is tradition pull of the earth. Both these forces slow down the motion of a soccer ball and it slows down and stops.

Which of the statements are true? Yeast cells that produce more unsaturated fatty acids than saturated fatty acids in response t
Feliz [49]

Answer:1)Yeast cells that produce more unsaturated fatty acids than saturated fatty acids in response to cold have greater cold tolerance

2)Cell membranes in reindeer legs (near the hooves) are kept flexible because they have a large number of saturated fatty acids.

3.)Cell membranes in cold tolerant winter wheat plants have a higher ratio of unsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids than do cold intolerant wheat varieties.

Explanation.

Basically the longer the chains of fatty acids the higher the degree of energy produced as heat energy, and therefore the higher the insulation.

Unsaturated fats clogged together and the aggregate carbons and hydrogens ensured insulation.

Mia conducted a five hour experiment. She used a liquid solution. The solution decreased by 9/8 ounces every hour for 5 hours. A
sasho [114]

Given:

The solution decreased by \dfrac{9}{8} ounces every hour for 5 hours.

Remaining solution at the end of the experiment = \dfrac{99}{8} ounces.

To find:

The initial amount of solution.

Solution:

Let the initial amount of the solution be x.

The solution decreased by \dfrac{9}{8} ounces every hour for 5 hours.

Total decreased amount  =\dfrac{9}{8}\times 5

                                          =\dfrac{45}{8}

Initial amount = Remining amount + Decreased amount of solution.

x=\dfrac{99}{8}+\dfrac{45}{8}

x=\dfrac{99+45}{8}

x=\dfrac{144}{8}

x=18

Therefore, the initial amount of solution is 18 ounces.
