Answer: The relationship between absorbance and transmittance is illustrated in the following diagram: which is added below.

So, if all the light passes through a solution without any absorption, then absorbance is zero, and percent transmittance is 100%. If all the light is absorbed, then percent transmittance is zero, and absorption is infinite.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

plicae circulares and intestinal villi

Explanation:

The inner wall of the intestine is full of wrinkles, called villi. An enlargement of them under the microscope reveals that they are formed by cells whose surface has innumerable small "wrinkled" structures. The small intestine is the largest viscera of the body (about six meters). Intestinal villi and microvilli increase the area of ​​contact with the intestine as well as the speed of absorption of food. Blood capillaries and lymph are in these villi to absorb nutrients.

The intestinal villi, have the function of increasing the absorption of nutrients after digestion. They are the folds of the intestines. The surface of the villi has an area of ​​12 cm² and the microvilli 240 cm².

Villi and microvilli increase the area of ​​intestinal absorption by approximately 30 times and 600 times, respectively, providing exceptionally efficient absorption of nutrients in the lumen.

The entire small intestine has circular folds of mucosa, also called Kerckring valves and circular plicae. Most extend transversely around the small intestine cylinder for about half or two-thirds of its circumference, but some form complete circles, and some have a spiraling direction; The latter usually extend a little more than once around the bowel, but occasionally two or three times. Circular folds slow the passage of partially digested food along the intestines and provide an increased surface for absorption.

Explain 3 ways that your body can defend itself against pathogens
VLD [36.1K]
The body can defend itself from pathogens using white blood cells, the respiratory system, and digestive system. White blood cells fight against the pathogens by ingesting them. Certain white blood cells called lymphocytes produce antibodies that destroy pathogens by finding antigens, the foreign chemicals released by the pathogen. The respiratory system defends the body from pathogens each time you sneeze or cough. Cilia and mucus also protect the body by trapping dirt and other particles. The digestive system destroys pathogens with saliva, mucus, enzymes, and stomach acid.
