What is the minimum number of nanocontainers that a person would need in their bloodstream to provide 1 hour's worth of oxygen?

Biology

Elanso [62]3 years ago
3 0

I did some research and found that the average human requires 550 L of oxygen per day which means that :

 

(550 L O2 / day) x (1 day / 24 hours) = 22.9166667 L O2 / hour or 22916.67 mL O2 / hour

 

1 mL = 1 cm^3

 

22916.67 mL O2 / hour = 22916.67 cm^3 O2 / hour

 

Now convert that volume from cm^3 to nm^3

 

22916.67 cm^3 O2 / hour = 2.29167x10^25 nm^3 O2 / hour

 

So for 1 hour’s worth of O2, we need a volume of 2.29167x10^25 nm^3

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

A) The striations are due to the orderly arrangement of actin and myosin

Explanation:

Smooth muscles are non-striated involuntary muscles which are found in the walls of stomach, urinary bladder, blood vessels...Smooth muscle tissue is composed of spindle-shaped muscle cells with single central nucleus. Like the other two type of muscles (cardiac and skeletal), smooth muscles also have four main functions:

  • Contractility-ability to contract. In the case of skeletal muscles it is voluntary, while in cardiac and smooth muscles it is unconscious.
  • Excitability-ability to change  membrane potential usually by the influence of nervous impulse.
  • Extensibility-the capacity to lengthen
  • Elasticity-ability to change its length and then return to previous.
