Once the alcohol goes into our system, an ounce of it is process for a period of one hour.

The first stop happens in the stomach where absorption through the gastric lining and bloodstream occurs. Stronger drinks are absorbed more quickly. The second stop happens in the brain where its function decreases/ is increasingly impaired as the BAC or blood alcohol content grows. The third stop will be in the heart. However, it should be noted that it does not receive any physical alcohol, but its effects on the heart are strong. Alcohol is a vasodilator which means it causes blood vessels to dilate. This indicates more blood flow through the body-- but lowers the overall blood pressure. The fourth stop will be in the kidneys where blood is filtered. The fifth stop will be in the bladder where it will excreted from the body. Lastly, the liver is where the rest of alcohol left in your system is broken down. This process is known as metabolizing. The chemical that remains after metabolization is acetaldehyde and the body gets rid it by further metabolizing it into carbon dioxide and water.

Therefore, an ounce of alcohol is processed in our body for 60 minutes or one hour.

gogolik [260]

Answer:

The correct order is dehydration, embed in wax, cut into sections, staining

Explanation:

There are certain proceedings needed to obtain stained sections of vegetable or animal tissues for their microscope observations.

These steps are:

  • Obtention of the material: The tissue is cut to an adequate size.
  • Fixation: When tissues are extracted from the organism, they suffer autolysis and putrefaction, so they need to be fixated in order to keep their cells in the best state possible. Fixation involves preserving the original morphological and molecular characteristics of the tissue. Fixation avoids autolysis, putrefaction, distortion, and retraction of cells and the tissue that could affect its volume or morphology.  
  • Dehydration. Once fixated, the fixator must be eliminated and the tissue is dehydrated by using a gradual series of solutions with alcohol in ascendant concentrations. Dehydration must be gradual to avoid tissue deformation.
  • Inclusion. To obtain thin cuts that can be observed under the optic microscope, the tissues must be included in a consistent, firm substance, that might be either hydrophilic or hydrophobic. A hydrophobic medium is paraffin wax, that provides hardness and plasticity.  
  • Cut. The tissue included in wax must be cut in slides or sections thin enough to allow the diffusion and penetration of light. A microtome is used to perform these cuts. When using paraffine for tissue inclusion, the cuts are about  5 to 20 micrometers of thickness.
  • Stain. Once the cuts are performed, paraffin wax must be eliminated. This can be done by using an organic solvent. Then the tissue must be stained. Hematoxylin and Eosin are the most common dyes. Animal tissues in general do not have any natural color, so they need to be stained to be observed.

The cell cycle is the regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo.<br> True or false?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo is known as the cell cycle. During the cell cycle, a cell grows, prepares for division, and divides into two new cells, which are called “daughter cells.” Each of the daughter cells then begins the cell cycle again.
