Chronic dehydration increases a man's risk of developing gallstones. true or false

Biology
1 answer:
guajiro [1.7K]3 years ago
3 0
Definitely true for kidney stones. Not sure about gallstones as they are formed I believe from buildup of fatty waste from hypercholesteremia. Less fluid volume in the body could cause these substances to aggregate in the liver/gall bladder instead of being broken down/filtered and flushed out in the bloodstream and GI tract, so I would say true

How can the collision of plates lead to the formation of sedimentary rocks?
ANTONII [103]
Sedimentary rocks are layers of aging rocks. They are combined to each other, forming one big rock. When plates go on top of each other, they will merge and become a sedimentary rock. Hope my answer was useful, and don't forget to make this answer the best!

When an enzyme is outside the temperature range, pH range, or both in which it normally functions, what happens to cause it to n
lozanna [386]

Answer:

The increase in temperature reflects an increase in the kinetic energy of the molecules, which favors the collision between the enzyme and substrate molecules. If the optimum pH changes, the conformation of the enzyme is altered and the substrate cannot enter its active site.

Explanation:

The relationship between pH and activity depends on the acid-base behavior of the enzyme and the substrate itself. Substrate and enzyme (active center) can contain acidic and basic functional groups, their degree of dissociation being dependent on pH, which will determine, among other aspects, the conformation of the protein, the binding capacity of the substrate to the active center of the enzyme and the transformation capacity of the substrate. The rate of an enzymatic reaction varies with increasing temperature. Such dependence reflects a double effect of temperature: positive at low values, due to the general increase that the speed of any chemical reaction experiences as temperature increases, and negative at high values, due to the thermal denaturation of the enzyme. That is, the speed of an enzymatic reaction increases as the temperature increases within a certain range, reaching a maximum value at the so-called optimal temperature. At higher values ​​the activity decreases because the enzyme, like any other protein, undergoes denaturing processes and, therefore, inactivation.

Describe how you would use Random Sampling to determine the population of dandelions in your yard.
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

randomly select different areas to count the dandelions, average the numbers and then multiply by the number of plots your grid contains. 6. In a forest that measures 5 miles by 5 miles, a sample was taken to count the number of silver maple trees in the forest.

salantis [7]
Identify the immune response described as nonspecific or specific.
Specific response creates an immediate response to pathogens that enter the body
Nonspecific response evident by a sneeze, cough, fever, or other physical symptom
Specific response recognizes antigens present on pathogens and attacks the pathogen withantibodies
 Specific response builds immunity to specific diseases that had previously entered the body
Nonspecific response does not target specific pathogens.
