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.

Emulsion of fatty acids is necessary to _____.
kap26 [50]

Answer:

c. increase the surface area available for hydrolysis by lipase

Explanation:

Emulsification of fats(fatty acid) is a chemical reaction where large molecules(globules) of fats are broken down into a smaller molecules (droplets) by the action of an emulsifier.

In the human body, emulsification takes places in the duodenum during the process of digestion of fats. When large fat molecules have been broken down into smaller fat molecules by action of an emulsifier called bile salts from the gall bladder, a larger surface area is created which makes it possible for the enzyme lipase from the pancreas to react with or act on fat molecules through the process of hydrolysis thereby converting the fats to fatty acids and glycerol for use by the body.
