<span>Water is the nutrient found most abundantly in both the human body and in foods. On average the body of an adult human being contains 60% of water. Most of the water in the human body is contained inside our cells. Billions of cells must have water to live. However the amount of water a body contains differ according to certain condition, where the body of a newborn is composed of more water about 75% than that of an elderly person is at 50%. Moreover, roughly 20% of our daily H2O intake comes from solid foods especially fruits and vegetable. And, Fruits are at least 90% water by weight and hugely hydrating food.</span>

Match each part of Sammi's model to the bodily structure it represents. One bodily structure has already been labeled for you.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

corrugated cardboard tube - digestive tract

irregular surfaces on the corrugated tube - villi

pump - heart

Plastic tubing - blood vessels

Explanation:

The corrugated cardboard tube represents the digestive tract.  The give away was the presence of the irregular surfaces within the tubes. This is called the villi. The villi is responsible for the absorption of food after digestion into the body.

Irregular surfaces on the corrugated tube represent the villi. They are tiny hair-like structures that are in the small intestine, that are responsible for the absorption of food into the bloodstream.

The pump represents the heart. The heart is the only organ in the body that provides the pressure force that pushes the blood throughout the body. In this model, the pump will most likely be performing the same function.

The plastic tubings are meant to contain one form of fluid or the other. Judging from that, they can be said to represent the blood vessels. This is because they are connected to the heart and are meant to transport bodily fluids around the body

A driver traveling at a speed of 21 m/s tops a hill and spots a deer standing in the middle of the road 90 meters away. He hits
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

84m

Explanation:

Using the kinematics equation we can come up with the answer:

d=\dfrac{Vf+Vi}{2}\times t

Where:

Vf = final velocity

Vi = initial velocity

t = time

In your problem we have the following given:

Vf= 0 m/s

Vi = 21 m/s

t = 8 seconds

The Vf is zero because the car stopped. The distance given in this case is not useful in determining the car's distance so we will solve it. So just fill in the equation with the given:

d=\dfrac{Vf+Vi}{2}\times t\\\\d=\dfrac{0m/s+21m/s}{2}\times 8s\\\\d=10.5m/s\times 8s=84m

Thankfully, the deer was not hit!

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The options to this question is incomplete, the correct options are:

A) the citric acid cycle.

B) oxidative phosphorylation.

C) glycolysis.

D) the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation

The answer is D

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is an important metabolic process carried out by the cells of living organisms including human cells. Aerobic cellular respiration involves three main stages viz: Glycolysis, Kreb's cycle, and Oxidative phosphorylation. These three processes occur to bring about the breakdown of glucose to synthesize ATP.

Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm while Kreb's cycle and Oxidative phosphorylation both occurs in the matrix and intracellular membrane of the Mitochondrion respectively. Hence, a drug that causes holes in both mitochondrial membranes will affect both Kreb's cycle and Oxidative phosphorylation.
