Which of these is not a property of lymphatic capillaries?

Biology
1 answer:
Inessa05 [86]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

They are smaller than blood capillaries.

Explanation:

Lymphatic capillaries drains the extracellular fluid present between the cell spaces. The fluid is known as lymph as it enters the lymph capillaries. These capillaires drains into lymph vessels that drains to lymph nodes and lymph ultimately enters the venous circulation.

Lymphatic capillaries are slightly larger than blood vessels and these capillaries have close ends. The walls of lymph capillaries are made up  of endothelial cells. The endothelial cells overlap in lymph vessels and when the pressure in ECF is greater these cells move and create a sort of gap for the movement of ECF inside the lymph capillary but when the pressure inside the capillary is greater these cells again overlap and does not allow the lymph to move outside of capillary. Thus lymph capillaries only allow the ECF to enter the capillary but does not allow the lymph to go out from capillary. Lymph capillaries have greater internal pressure than blood vessels.

Iven the equation representing a nuclear reaction in which x represents a nuclide: which nuclide is represented by x?
kaheart [24]

The nuclide represented as X is thorium and this is an alpha decay where an alpha particle is removed off.

<h3>What is nuclide?</h3>

A kind of atom or nucleus which is represented by a specific number of protons and neutrons.

The equation given represents an alpha decay. In an alpha decay, an alpha particle is removed off.

The atomic number of the parent nuclide is more than the daughter nuclide by two units and the mass number of the parent is more than that of the daughter nuclide by four units.

Thus, the x is thorium.

Plants use sugars as
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

a fuel for cellular respiration and a starting material for making other organic molecules.

Explanation:

Plants have the ability to produce sugars by the process of photosynthesis. Plants can convert the inorganic CO2 from the air into the organic nutrients such as sugars. Plants store sugars so that they can serve as a source of ATP for the cells as and when required. The sugars enter the process of cellular respiration and are oxidized into CO2 and H2O. In addition, the energy of chemical bonds of the sugars is used to form ATP molecules.

Plants also use sugars to synthesize other organic molecules. For example, several intermediates of Kreb's cycle can serve as precursors for the synthesis of amino acids. Amino acids are joined together to form different proteins.
