Why doesnât gastric juice digest the inside of the stomach?

Biology
1 answer:
arlik [135]3 years ago

The inside of a stomach is coated with a lining that protects it.
This lining is made up of cells called epithelial cells. They coat the stomach with a mucus that neutralizes the acid.

The mucus contains bi-carbonate (a base), similar to baking soda.
Acid + Base = water and salt
So, that’s why taking tums or swallowing baking soda water helps an upset stomach.

When your stomach is upset, it means there’s too much acid. Taking a tums neutralizes that overproduction eating also helps to absorb the excess acid.

Answer:

5= mRNA is “messenger” RNA. mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus using the nucleotide sequence of DNA as a template. This process requires nucleotide triphosphates as substrates and is catalyzed by the enzyme RNA polymerase II. The process of making mRNA from DNA is called transcription, and it occurs in the nucleus.

How does water and other molecules move across the membrane and in various solutions to maintain homeostasis
Kaylis [27]

Osmosis of Water Across the Membrane. Osmosis is the tendency for water molecules to move from where there is a higher concentration to where there is a lower one. ... The cell membrane helps to regulate and slow down the flow of water into the cell. This is yet another way that the cell membrane helps maintain homeostasis

Answer:

c. 1:4:6:4:1

Explanation:

The term quantitative heritability refers to the transmission of a phenotypic trait in which expression depends on the additive effect of a series of genes.  

Polygenic heritability occurs when a trait results from the interaction of more than one gene. And these genes can also have more than two alleles. The action of many genes and alleles can cause many different combinations that are the reason for genotypic graduation.  

Quantitative traits are those that can be measure, such as longitude, weight, eggs laid per female, among others. In the exposed example, the measurable trait is the dog´s friendliness. These characters do not group individuals by any precise and clear categories. Instead, they group individuals in many different categories that depend on how the genes were intercrossed and distributed during meiosis. The result depends on the magnitude in which each allele contributes to the final phenotype and genotype. When they interact, they create a gradation in phenotypes, according to the level of contribution.  

In the exposed example, each dominant allele contributes with a higher level of friendliness.    

  • aabb → 0 = Unfriendly/Loner (although not aggressive);
  • Aabb, aaBb → 1 = Somewhat friendly/shy;
  • AAbb, AaBb, aaBB → 2 = Friendly;
  • AABb, aABB → 3 = Very friendly;
  • AABB → 4 = Maximally friendly.

Cross: between two dihybrid friendly dogs

Parentals) AaBb    x    AaBb

Gametes) AB, Ab, aB, ab

                AB, Ab, aB, ab

Punnett square)   AB       Ab       aB       ab

                   AB   AABB   AABb  AaBB  AaBb

                    Ab   AABb    AAbb  AaBb  Aabb

                    aB   AaBB    AaBb   aaBB   aaBb

                    ab    AaBb    Aabb   aaBb   aabb

F1) 1/16 AABB ⇒ 4 = Maximally friendly

    4/16 AABb + AaBB ⇒ 3 = Very friendly

    6/16 AAbb + AaBb + aaBB ⇒ 2 = Friendly

    4/16 Aabb + aaBb ⇒ 1 = Somewhat friendly/shy

    1/16 aabb ⇒ 0 = Unfriendly/Loner

The Phenotypic ratio is 1:4:6:4:1
