Explanation:

Malnutrition among under-five children is an important concern for the health authorities in India. The aim of the present review was to assess the burden of under-nutrition and over-nutrition, its determinants and strategies required to tackle malnutrition among under-five children in India. Recent data were collected from Google search, Medline, and others. The information retrieved was reviewed and analyzed for discrepancies. Existing evidence shows that the prevalence of under-nutrition among under-five children was high and varied widely (under-weight: 39-75%, stunting: 15.4-74%, wasting: 10.6-42.3%) depending on the assessment methodology adopted. Studies on assessment of over-nutrition status among under-five children were limited. Distribution of various types of risk factors and its influence on nutrition status of children in a given set up should be analyzed for planning the control measures. Strengthening public health interventions for mild malnutrition cases and vulnerable groups, effective implementation and evaluation of the strategies at regional level, research on overweight, obesity and its etiological factors and steps for improving socioeconomic development are the prerequisites for tackling malnutrition among under-five children in India.

Plants such as the Venus Flytrap and the Sun Dew attract and consume insects. These plants are unable to produce substances whic
yuradex [85]

Answer:

The chemical compound that breaks down the insects is most likely <u>enzymes.</u>

Explanation:

Venus flytraps and sundews are carnivorous- they consume insects to absorb nutrients via digestion. During absorption,  their cells take up molecules synthesized via the breakdown of macromolecules like carbohydrates and proteins. When regions of the plant come into contact with insects, these plants recognize specific macromolecules like chitin, they increase the production of digestive enzymes.

Forming digestive liquid enzymes are specialized proteins that function as biological catalysts to speed up reactions. They act on substrates, which can bind to specific regions of the enzyme, called the active site. Once bound in the presence of highly specific temperature and pH, enzymes increase the rate of a reaction over time.

Common enzymes found in their digestive secretions include chitinases, phosphatases, amylases, and proteinases.

By what mechanism would a nonpolar molecule move across a membrane if it is moving up its concentration gradient
SVEN [57.7K]
Non polar molecule move across a membrane through simple diffusion, when moving up their concentration gradient. Simple diffusion involves movement of molecules through a membrane without the help of integral membrane protein. These molecules are driven by the force of diffusion. This is different from facilitated diffusion where molecules only move with the aid of integral protein in the membrane.
