Finger- like projections facilitate absorption in the following ways;
a) They increase the surface area of the organ eg. small intestines to allow more area of nutrients to be absorbed. The larger the surface area the more nutrients are absorbed.

b) They contain many capillaries which helps to increase the rate of nutrients absorption in the small intestines.

Regulation slowly happens but produces long-lasting effects, whereas _____ regulation quickly takes place with short-term effect
vazorg [7]

Endocrine system regulation slowly happens but produces long-lasting effects, whereas nervous system regulation quickly takes place with short-term effects.

Endocrine system can regulate many things in the body that control the metabolism. The effect shouldn't be instant, but it should be good for long term effect. Nervous system need a much faster reaction because it responsible for "fight or flight" reaction. A slow nervous system will cause the organism caught by predator easier.

Dennis_Churaev [7]
Ost proteins that function in the cytosol (such as actin) or in the nucleus (such as DNA polymerase) are synthesized by free ribosomes. Proteins that function within the endomembrane system (such as lysosomal enzymes) or those that are destined for secretion from the cell (such as insulin) are synthesized by bound ribosomes.
<span>As a protein destined for the endomembrane system is being synthesized by a ribosome, the first amino acids in the growing polypeptide chain act as a signal sequence. That signal sequence ensures that the ribosome binds to the outer membrane of the ER and that the protein enters the ER lumen.</span>
