The entry of bile and pancreatic juice into the duodenum is controlled by a valve that is muscular known as the hepatopancreatic sphincter. Also called as the  sphincter of Oddi. It is located at the intersection of the pancreatic ducts and the bile. It functions to regulate the flow of pancreatic juices and bile. Also, to prevent reflux of the duodenal contents into the system of the pancreatobiliary.

Which of these conditions indicate positive feedback has occurred?
aleksklad [387]

Answer;

A) Blood pressure decreases greatly; blood flow to the heart is inadequate, and blood pressure decreases.

Explanation;

-With negative feedback, the output reduces the original effect of the stimulus. While in a positive feedback system, the output enhances the original stimulus.

-Negative feedback is the most commonly used feedback loop in the body. Negative feedback is used to negate or counteract a stimulus without completely eradicating it.

-One key difference between the two feedback is that positive feedback loops are used to eradicate a stimulus. Another key difference is that responses through positive feedback become more amplified over time. So once a stimulus activates a positive feedback loop it is not turned off until the stimulus is completely removed.

Explain how the release of sodium and chlorine would lead to a loss of water in the intestines
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) are two electrolytes that play important role in the absorption of water and nutrients in the small intestine. However, as mentioned in the question, the release of sodium and chlorine would lead to a loss of water in the intestines. This is because of the OSMOTIC phenomenon.

Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high concentration of water/low concentration of solute to a region of low concentration of water/high concentration of solute via a semipermeable membrane. In this case, the Na+ and Cl- ions serve as the solutes, which when released out of the intestine causes the solution in the intestines to be HYPOTONIC compared to the intestinal environment. This causes an OSMOTIC GRADIENT.

This osmotic gradient i.e. difference in concentration provokes osmotic flow of water from the intestines, which has a low solute/high water concentration, to the outside of the intestines, which has a high solute/low water concentration. Hence, water is lost from the intestine because the solute concentration becomes low when sodium and chlorine ions are released.
