Answer: The effect of the medication depends on the quantity of the alkaline.

Explanation:

Alkaline can help slow the aging process, regulate your body’s pH level, and prevent chronic diseases like cancer.

Researchers found that drinking naturally carbonated artesian-well alkaline water with a pH of 8.8 may help deactivate PEPSIN, the main enzyme that causes acid reflux.

Alkaline may also have benefits for people with high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol.

In summary, Alkaline has the following advantage;

-Anti-aging properties (via liquid antioxidants that absorb more quickly into the human body)

-colon-cleansing properties

immune system support

hydration, skin health, and other detoxifying properties

weight loss

-cancer resistance

Too much alkalinity may also agitate the body’s normal pH, leading to metabolic alkalosis, a condition that may produce the following symptoms:

-nausea

-vomiting

-hand tremors

-muscle twitching

-tingling in the extremities or face

-confusion

Alkalosis may also cause a decrease in free calcium in the body, which can affect bone.

The “alkaline” in alkaline water refers to its pH level. The pH level is a number that measures how acidic or alkaline a substance is on a scale of 0 to 14. For example, something with a pH of 1 would be very acidic and something with a pH of 13 would be very alkaline.

Sobre la pregunta:

Cucigrama. Pregunta 1 vertical. Absorbe nutrientes por medio de micro vellosidades que recubren y aumentan la superficie de absorción

Answer:

Intestino delgado

Explanation:

El intestino delgado es el organi mas largo del tubo digestivo, pudiendo medir 7 metros de longitud y 3 cm de diametro. Se caracteriza por estar sumamente plegado sobre si mismo. La primera porcion, llamada duodeno, recibe secresiones de glándulas biliar y pancreática, y las mezcla con enzimas digestivas. Esta mezcla se encarga de degradar la comida y transformarla en sustancias solubles, como amino ácidos.

Es en el intestino delgado donde ocurre la absorción de nutrientes.  Las paredes intestinales estas cubiertas por microvellosidades que aumentan la superficie de absorción.  

Las microvellosidades son células que componene el epitelio columnar, y que extienden proyecciones hacia el lumen del organo.

He tells his students that _____ in the ______ help coordinate contraction of certain muscles and relaxation of others. Answers:
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

A. motor neurons; peripheral nervous system

Explanation:

Motor neurons carry signals from the peripheral nervous system to the muscles. This causes the muscles to either relax or contract. Note that the peripheral nervous system consists of neurons and parts of neurons outside of the central nervous system which consists of the brain and spinal cord. When signals are transmitted between the motor neurons and peripheral nervous system, this causes a response to stimulus in the muscles which would either, relax or contract.
