What is the connection between the liver (organ), UV radiation (sunlight), and bone tissue

1 answer:

6 0

The answer to this question would be: vitamin D

The UV is needed by the skin to make previtamin D3. Previtamin D3 or cholecalciferol made from the skin will be changed in the liver into 25- hydroxyvitamin D3 and then sent to the kidney to be changed into 1,25- dihydroxyvitamin D3. The last change in the kidney will active the vitamin D. Vitamin D has a role in the calcium absorption which was will strengthen the bone tissue.

What is water potential???

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Water potential is the potential energy of water per unit volume relative to pure water in reference conditions. Water potential quantifies the tendency of water to move from one area to another due to osmosis, gravity, mechanical pressure and matrix effects such as capillary action.

A student of weight 652 N rides a steadily rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest point, the magnitude

miskamm [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Weight of person $W=652\ N$

At highest point Magnitude of the normal force $F=585\ N$

net force at highest point

$F_{net}=W+F_c$

where $F_c=$ centripetal force

$F_c=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$F_{net}=F_{n}=$ Normal Force

$585=652+F_c$

$F_c=-67\ N$

Negative sign shows force is in upward direction

At bottom point centripetal force is towards the bottom

$F_n=F_c+W$

$F_n=652+67$

$F_n=719\ N$

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The acceleration that the jet liner that must have is 2.241 meters per square second.

Explanation:

Let suppose that the jet liner accelerates uniformly. From statement we know the initial ( $v_{o}$ ) and final speeds ( $v_{f}$ ), measured in meters per second, of the aircraft and likewise the runway length ( $d$ ), measured in meters. The following kinematic equation is used to calculate the minimum acceleration needed ( $a$ ), measured in meters per square second:
