An exocrine gland is a gland that secretes substances intended to be expelled from the body into the external environment, that is to say for example in the skin, the digestive tract or the respiratory tree. The exocrine glands deliver their secretion via an excretory duct. Some examples of the exocrine gland are salivary glands, sweat gland. mucous gland.

They are distinguished from endocrine glands that directly release their secretions into the bloodstream at the blood capillaries (still inside the body).

Some exocrine glands also have a role of endocrine gland, they are called amphicrine glands (like pancreas).

jasenka [17]

Answer:

O sal tem uma grande capacidade de absorver água do ambiente.

Explanation:

A passagem de oxigênio pelas guelras de um peixe é um exemplo de difusão porque a difusão ocorre quando a concentração de uma substância é maior em uma região e menor em outra região, de modo que as partículas se movem da região superior para a região inferior. A glicose entra na célula por meio do processo de transporte passivo facilitado porque passa por uma membrana semipermeável por uma proteína específica. O transporte iônico nas células nervosas é o exemplo do transporte ativo porque se move pelo uso da energia contra o gradiente.

O sal tem uma forte capacidade de absorver água do seu entorno, então quando a alface temperada com sal, o sal absorve a água presente no interior da alface, portanto a retirada da água é a retirada da água é a causa do murchamento.

B) lighting a match

Explanation:

a chemical change is a chemical reaction involving the rearrangement of atoms. While a physical change can often be reversed, a chemically change typically cannot.

Freezing water is a physical change because it can be reversed and does not alter the substance, which is water. a change in state i always a physical change

tearing up a piece of paper is a physical change since nothing on a molecular level has changed. its still paper.
