"a diet high in ________ and low in calcium may lead to osteoporosis."

Biology
1 answer:
zloy xaker [14]3 years ago
4 0
A diet high in protein and low in calcium may lead to osteoporosis. This is because protein, especially albumin, binds free calcium in the blood preventing it to be act upon calcitonin and preventing it to deposit in the bones. Low calcium predisposes patients in osteoporosis as there will be no calcium to be deposited in the bones.

Lisa [10]

Answer:

b. The overall amount of energy in the bowl will neither increase nor decrease.

c. The ice cream will increase in energy.

Explanation:

b. The total amount of energy in the container will not increase or decrease. Since the energy is transferred from one element to another, the energy that dissipates is negligible.

In this case the energy of the pie is transferred to the ice cream, melting it.

c. The ice cream will increase in energy. As the heat is transferred from the pie to the ice cream. the movement between the particles of the ice cream increases, increasing its kinetic energy

What is the name of the process by which the cytoplasm divides in two?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Cytokinesis

Explanation:

All living cells undergo division, it is the method employed in duplicating themselves. The division of cells involves two major processes viz; karyokinesis and cytokinesis.

Karyokinensis involves the division of the genetic material (DNA) in the nucleus. The chromosomes are initially separated into opposite poles/ends inside the cell. After which the cytoplasm of the whole cell then separates resulting in two daughter cells each having its own genetic material. This process is called CYTOKINESIS.

Although CYTOKINESIS occurs in all eukarotes and prokaryotes, the way it occurs in the eukaryotic plant and animal cells differ in the sense that, in animals, it occurs with the formation of a cleavage furrow as a result of pinching inward of the cell membrane until the two daughter cells form while in plants, a cell plate is formed at the cell's centre and a new membrabe and cell wall is formed around each cell plate.
