The giraffe head is higher than its heart so the blood pressure in the head must be lower than in the heart. The pressure is directly related to the density, gravity, and the height. The calculation would be:
<span>P = ρ*g*h
</span>P= 1.05* 10^3 kg/m3 * 9.8m/s2 * 2m= <span>20 580 pascals= 20.58 kpa</span>
Answer: water travels from high to low concentration of the solute
Electrolytes are known to
be major components pf body fluid and these electrolytes enter the body through
foods. Thus, major regulation of body fluid and electrolyte balance in the body
is through the process of osmosis. However, osmosis can be defined as the
movement of water through the semipermeable membrane from lower concentration
of solute to higher concentration of solute.
Answer:
A couple of examples
<u>amylase</u>: break down starch into sugar.
<u>protease</u>: break down proteins into amino acids.
<u>lipase</u>: break down lipids (fats and oils) into fatty acids and glycerol.
A mass movement that involves the sudden movement of a block of material along a flat, inclined surface is called a SLIDE.
