Answer: B. Neurotransmitters; C. Enzyme components; E. Hormones

Explanation: Aminoacids have a variety of functions because they can create proteins. These long and complex molecules perform important roles in different biological processes: they are responsible for the formation of enzymes and hormones. In neurotransmitters, the glutamate appears to be related to functions of the brain, like learning and memory. Other functions of the aminoacids are regeneration of muscular cells, have a role in imunology, growth of tissue, production of collagen and others.

Answer: the functions of amino acids includes: B. (neurotransmitters)C. (enzyme components) D. (metabolic intermediates) E. (hormones).

Explanation:

Amino acid is an organic compound that is made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen. They can exist in more than one form;

- as a bound form: they can combine into proteins or other substances by covalent linkage or by weak forces.

-as a free form : that is present in plasma as free unbound form.

Amino acid has the following functions;

- they aid in the transportation of neurotransmitters

- metabolic intermediates- most amino acids are converted to intermediates of the citric acid cycle or to pyruvate, which in turn can serve as precursors for gluconeogenesis.

- they are also the basic building blocks for enzymes and hormones.

An easy way to calculate the amount of energy available at each level is to
Contact [7]

Answer:

Use the rule that 10% of the energy is transferred between layers.

Explanation:

Energy is transferred between layers of a food pyramid. That means that the  producers at the bottom of the pyramid (e.g. green plants) provide energy to the primary consumers (e.g. rabbits), which are eaten by and provide energy to the secondary consumers (e.g. foxes).

However, very little of the energy is actually transferred to the next layer, roughly 10%. So an easy way to calculate the energy available at each level is to calculate 10% of what was available from the previous level. So if there is 600 kJ available from the primary consumers, then 60 kJ are transferred to the secondary consumers

Through the digestion system, water is mainly absorbed in the A. gallbladder. B. stomach. C. large intestine. D. small intestine
bogdanovich [222]
I would say D. small intestine

If you want an explanation, here it is

After leaving the stomach, water is absorbed mostly in the early segments of the
small intestine, the duodenum, and the jejunum. A small portion of all water absorption occurs in the stomach and the colon: the small intestine absorbs 6.5L/day, whereas the colon absorbs 1.3L/day.

stepladder [879]

Answer:

Answer is Providing evidence - based nursing care.

Explanation:

It should be note noted that, the development of an accumulating body of unique scientific knowledge, which makes it easier to predict the specific nursing interventions that are most likely to produce the expected or desired result, is referred to as the evidence-based practice.

It should be understood that the process of participating in continuing education and mentoring are important and beneficial, but ,they are not considered as the direct manifestation of the scientific basis for nursing.

The evidence-based practice is made possible due to the scientific basis that underlies nursing.
