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.

Which is the relationship between animals and plants in the carbon cycle? <br>​
enyata [817]

Answer:

Animals release carbon dioxide into the air, and plants take it in.

Explanation:

The existence of plants and animals on the planet is important in maintaining life. Animals release carbon dioxide as waste through the respiratory system. The carbon dioxide that is released is then taken in by plants, which they use to produce their own food through a process called photosynthesis. The by product of that process is oxygen which is released in the atmosphere and animals take it in.

Which of the following is formed during the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis? ATP Carbon dioxide Glucose Water
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Glucose

Explanation:

ATP, Carbon Dioxide, and Water are all results of Cellular Respiration and do <em>not</em><em> </em>form during Photosynthesis. These three are actually used in the process of Photosynthesis, so they are not created by it. Plants use photosynthesis to create their own glucose.
