This exchange process takes place in the aveolus (air sac) inside your lungs by diffusion.
it's from a different concentration gradient
the deoxygenated blood with carbon dioxide diffuse into a aveoli (which is in high concentration) and the aveoli release the oxygen into the blood stream (which is low concentration) therefore the blood will be oxygenated again
Answer:
4
Explanation:
There are 4 nitrogenous bases and they are Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine (in RNA, Thymine is replaced by Uracil)
Explanation:
A lithosphere is the rigid, outermost rocky shell of a terrestrial planet or natural satellite. On Earth, it is composed of the crust and the portion of the upper mantle that behaves elastically on time scales of up to thousands of years or more
Answer:
The presence of cholesterol in the plasma membranes of some animal cells <u>enables the membranes to stay fluid when cell temperature drops</u>.
Explanation:
Cholesterol is an essential lipid in the basic structure of cell membranes. The membranes must have a fluid structure so that the proteins integrated in them can move ''horizontally'' to interact with their ligands and with other proteins. With excess saturated fat the membranes become rigid, but only with the necessary unsaturated fat the membranes are extremely fluid, and very sensitive to changes in temperature. Cholesterol stabilizes the structure of the membranes; preventing the collapse and crystallization between lipid chains that would lead to loss of fluidity and excessive rigidity in the membrane. By decreasing the temperature; as temperatures drop, fluidity decreases, an effect that partially counteracts the presence of cholesterol.
Answer:
Scientists began to mark division on the geologic time scale when patterns and similarities started emerging from archeological studies. Patterns such as the discovery of fossils that were formed within the same period.
Explanation:
Geologists who study matter that make up the Earth's crust (whether solid gaseous or liquid), as well as matter from other terrestrial planets and the processes that influence the formation and condition of this matter, are called geologists.
They have successfully calibrated history into various phases of time intervals. These intervals are event-based intervals. For example, you have Eons, Eras, and Periods.
An Eon is a billion years. An example is the Neoproterozoid Eon. Eons are made up of several Eras and Eras are made up of periods. An example of an era is the Mesozoic era. Whilst periods are smaller units of an era, eg. Triassic era.
As scientists deduced the causes for the formation of fossils and topographical remains/patterns, they collected events that occurred within the same time period and group them together.
This range of events became known as the geological time scale.
The age of fossils and rocks is also used to map out the calibrations on the scale.
The age of fossils and rocks is determined using the process of radioactive dating.
