The efficiency of a car’s engine is 14 percent. This implies that the engine wastes

Biology
1 answer:
Harlamova29_29 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

C) 86 J of energy for every 100 J that enter it.  

Explanation:

Efficiency is a measure of performance of an engine which can be calculated by the formula as given below to get in percentage:

           Efficiency = energy output/energy input x 100

If the efficiency of a car’s engine is 14 percent it means that for every 100 joules of energy that is entered into it, only 14 joule is converted into useful output and rest of the 86 Joules is wasted.

The efficiency of any machine is never 100%, however, if any machine miraculously converts all the input energy to useful output energy, it means it is 100% efficient.

Hope it helps!

Describe the role. of the liver in regulating the concentration of glucose in the body​
leva [86]

Answer:

The liver stores glucose to power the cells during periods of low blood sugar. Skipping meals and poor nutrition can lower blood sugar. By storing glucose, the liver makes sure that blood glucose levels remain steady between meals and during sleep. When blood glucose falls, cells in the pancreas secrete glucagon.

After a big meal, in those individuals who do not have type i diabetes, the pancreas secretes insulin, which circulates through
chubhunter [2.5K]
This is an example of negative feedback. 

After a big meal, glucose levels in the bloodstream increases. The body recognises this change and goes through homeostasis, or the regulation of bodily state or internal environment.

The pancreas secretes insulin, which then binds to insulin receptors. This will result in the uptake of excess glucose from the bloodstream into cells and converted into glycogen to be stored in cells as energy storage molecules. 

Since there is the counter effect of body (i.e. when blood-glucose concentration increases, the body sends a signal to decrease the blood-glucose concentration, this is called a negative feedback (instead of a positive feedback, which occurs if for e.g. the body signals cells to increase blood-glucose concentration even after blood-glucose concentration increased after a heavy meal).

Hope this helps! :)
