Short-term regulation of food intake involves neural signals from stretch receptors in the GI tract.

Biology
1 answer:
Elza [17]2 years ago
7 0

Short-term regulation of feeding involves signals coming from the liver and GI tract. Stretch receptors send afferent signals through the vagal nerve fibers to the chemoreceptors in the stomach and proximal small intestine,

Short-term regulation food intake is primarily regulated by food signals resulting from both their preabsorptive action in the gut and their postabsorptive metabolism, as opposed to long-term food intake, which is regulated by adiposity signals. The first process, commonly referred to as short-term regulation, tries to consume enough energy to counteract what is being used up. It is typically believed that this short-term mechanism controls both the interval between meals and the amount of the meals.

Sugar beets (Beta vulgaris) are a major crop in the Red River Valley of the North. Why do you think the beets have to be harvest
makvit [3.9K]
<h2>Sugar beet harvest </h2>

Explanation:

Sugar beets have to be harvested and stockpiled in September because  they have to get the root out of the ground before the ground freezes

  • Sugar beets are harvested with two primary pieces of equipment
  • The defoliator removes the green leaves and slices a slab from the top of the sugar beet root
  • This removed slab is the growing point of the sugar beet and contains high levels of impurities, which impede the factories ability to extract the sugar from the remainder of the harvested root
  • The sugar beet root is then harvested with a pinch wheel harvester, which pinches the root and lifts from the soil
  • The sugar beet harvester also separates some soil and conveys the sugar beet into a truck to be transported to a receiving station

Identify the locations within the human body for Hyaline, Elastic and Fibrocartilage.
belka [17]

Answer:

A flexible connective tissue, known as cartilage varies from bones in many ways, its microcomposition is less developed in comparison to the bone and is avascular. It is not supplied with nerves and thus depends upon the process of diffusion to attain nutrients. The three kinds of cartilage are fibrous, hyaline, and elastic.

Of these the most widespread kind is the hyaline cartilage, it looks like glass. It is witnessed in embryos, where the formation of bone takes place as hyaline cartilage, which ossifies later. In adults, it is found on the tips of the ribs, on the articular surfaces of the long bones, the parts of the skull, and the rings of the trachea.

Fibrous cartilage is witnessed in the pubic symphysis and intervertebral discs and exhibits many collagen fibers.

Elastic cartilage is witnessed in the internal support of the external ear and the epiglottis and is yellow, springy, and elastic in characteristics.

In three to five sentences, describe the advantages and disadvantages of these maps in modeling mitosis.
Nina [5.8K]

Modelling refers to using a diagrammatic representation to present a particular event or biological activity.

The two maps shown are very good for representing/modelling mitosis.

Advantages

  • They clearly lists the various steps involved in mitosis and as well included the process of cell division starting from the interphase stage (for the second diagram).
  • The M phase was also clearly explained in the first diagram.

Disadvantages

  • The first pictorial diagram had to labelling to depict the name of each particular phase and makes understanding difficult.
  • The second diagram fails to show pictorial representation of what could have exactly happened in each stage in the process of cell division.
