vesna_86 [32]3 years ago
6 0
The cholecystokinin generates a satiety or nausea sensation to the brain, quenching the appetite once it has eaten enough, occurs naturally in the human organism in the small intestine, secreted from the cells of the duodenum and jejunum to promotes fats absorption in the digestion process.
All that is slow gastric emptying.

When large masses of magma solidify far below Earth’s surface, they form igneous rocks that have a _____.
telo118 [61]

Answer:

coarse-grained texture

Explanation:

Igneous rocks come from magma of volcanos and they cool and end up becoming hard. A perfect example of this is granite, which contains a lot of minerals such as quartz and feldspar. Igneous rocks contain a lot of minerals hence why they have a coarse-grained texture.

Hope this helped :)

an organism that uses that uses hydrogen sulfide as a source of energy is categorized as which of the following ​
Shkiper50 [21]
In biochemistry, chemosynthesis is the biological conversion of one or more carbon-containing molecules (usually carbon dioxide or methane) and nutrients into organic matter using the oxidation of inorganic compounds (e.g., hydrogen gas, hydrogen sulfide) or methane as a source of energy, rather than sunlight, as in photosynthesis. Chemoautotrophs, organisms that obtain carbon through chemosynthesis, are phylogenetically diverse, but also groups that include conspicuous or biogeochemically-important taxa include the sulfur-oxidizing gamma and epsilon proteobacteria, the Aquificae, the methanogenic archaea and the neutrophilic iron-oxidizing bacteria.

Many microorganisms in dark regions of the oceans use chemosynthesis to produce biomass from single carbon molecules. Two categories can be distinguished. In the rare sites at which hydrogen molecules (H2) are available, the energy available from the reaction between CO2 and H2 (leading to production of methane, CH4) can be large enough to drive the production of biomass. Alternatively, in most oceanic environments, energy for chemosynthesis derives from reactions in which substances such as hydrogen sulfide or ammonia are oxidized. This may occur with or without the presence of oxygen.

Many chemosynthetic microorganisms are consumed by other organisms in the ocean, and symbiotic associations between chemosynthesizers and respiring heterotrophs are quite common. Large populations of animals can be supported by chemosynthetic secondary production at hydrothermal vents, methane clathrates, cold seeps, whale falls, and isolated cave water.

It has been hypothesized that chemosynthesis may support life below the surface of Mars, Jupiter's moon Europa, and other planets.[1] Chemosynthesis may have also been the first type of metabolism that evolved on Earth, leading the way for cellular respiration and photosynthesis to develop later.

That’s probs to much
