Hello there, and thank you for asking your question here on brainly.

The answer to this would be true, because a calorie is ≈4 joules. Although, a Calorie is 1,000 of a calorie, (calories). It can also be called a kilocalorie.

Hope this helps! ☺♥

Yes, this is true because we most often refer to food in terms of kilocalories, and the easier way is to write Calories. So, this is true!

Answer:

The correct answer is femur.

The lateral rotators act on the femur.

The lateral rotators is a group of muscles composed by the piriformis, the external obturator, the twin (superior and inferior), the femoral square and the internal obturator, which rotate the thigh outwards (they rotate the thigh laterally away from the midline of the body), that is, they act on the femur, rotating laterally the hip joint, in addition they help to keep the head of the femur inside the acetabulum.

Compare the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide across the cell membrane. (4 marks)

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Molecules naturally disperse from areas of higher concentration to lower concentration.

As oxygen-rich (and carbon dioxide-poor) blood travels by a cell the oxygen diffuses through the cell membrane to the area of lower concentration inside the cell. It can do this easily because the oxygen molecule (O2) is very small and has no charge or polarity. The oxygen is used up rapidly by mitochondria. This rapid consumption causes oxygen to constantly move into the cell from the blood.

The mitochondria creates carbon dioxide (CO2) as a waste product of cellular respiration (the process that makes energy for your body). Because the CO2 is of a higher concentration in the cell than in the blood passing by, this gas continually diffuses out of the cell. It too is small and uncharged so it can pass through cell membranes easily.

These movements require no energy (in the form of ATP) on behalf of the cell.
