The process is called homeostasis. It is important for living things to maintain a constant or balanced internal environment to survive. Homeostasis is not just one but a collective term to all processes needed to keep that balance.

Why does it matter osmosis is put into a scab or nosebleed? where would that leave him?
adelina 88 [10]

Osmosis is mainly described as the movement of water or fluids through a permeable or semi-permeable membrane because of a specific difference in potential gradient. Applying the process of osmosis on wounds, such as into a scab or nosebleed, has been used since ancient times by Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians. They do this by applying salt water to wounds. Even today, salt water in the form of saline is still used to treat minor wounds and hasten their healing. Osmosis forces liquid in the cells to move out of the body, taking along with them any bacteria that has also entered through the wound; thus,<span> healing the wound area and leaving it a little dry. </span>

aniked [119]

Answer:

He can deduce that The pO2 of her cells is less than or equal to 200 mmHg.

Explanation:

Partial pressure of oxygen(pO2) measures the amount of gaseous oxygen  dissolved in the blood. It purposes to measure the effectiveness of the lungs in pulling oxygen from the atmosphere to the lungs.

In the incubator where the gases levels are carefully regulated, a pO2 of 200mmHg on the incubator deduces that the pO2 of her cells is equal or less than 200mmHg.

During the electron transport chain, when hydrogen ions are pumped from the mitochondrial matrix across the inner membrane and i
Minchanka [31]

The protons are pumped across the inner mitochondrial membrane from the inner matrix to the intermembrane space by the energy employed in the electron transport chain, creating a significant gradient in the hydrogen concentration. When it was discovered, this process was known as chemiosmosis.

<h3>The inner membrane is what?</h3>

The inner or cytoplasmic membrane controls the flow of nutrients, metabolites, macromolecules, and information into and out of the cytoplasm and preserves the proton motive force necessary for energy storage. It is impermeable to polar molecules.

<h3>What use does the intermembrane serve?</h3>

Proteins that are essential for mitochondrial energetics and apoptosis are found in the intermembrane region between the outer and inner membranes (process of programmed cell death). The inner membrane is significantly less permeable to ions and molecules than the outer membrane.
