Answer: Water is absorbed in the intestine through gradient transport. The correct option is E.
Explanation:
Absorption of water in the mammalian intestines occurs largely on the small intestine through a transport mechanism known as osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules, through a semi permeable membrane, from the region of lower solute concentration into higher solute concentration to attain an equilibrium.
For water molecules to be absorbed from the lumen into the bloodstream, it's dependent on sodium absorption. This follows the following steps:
-sodium is absorbed by co transport with glucose and amino acids.this aids to move sodium from lumen into the enterocyte.
- Rapid exportation of absorbed sodium through sodium pimps from the enterocyte.
- As sodium is pumped out of cells an osmotic gradient is formed across apical cell membrane, this helps to osmotically drive water across the epithelium. Therefore water is absorbed in the intestine through the osmotic gradient created by sodium absorption. I hope this helps. Thanks.
We have that the electric field at the center of the metal ball due only to the charges on the surface of the metal ball is
From the question we are told that
A solid metal ball of radius 1.5 cm
bearing a charge of -15 nC is located near a hollow plastic ball of radius 1.9 cm bearing
uniformly distributed charge of -7 nC
The distance between the centers of the balls is 9 cm
Generally the equation for the electric field is mathematically given as

(A "release" of a chemical means that it is emitted to the air or water, or placed in some type of land disposal.)
The answer is C) the density of the rock
Density of rock is the dependent variable, because it depends on the temperature. The temperature can’t be the dependent variable because ,the density of a rock does not have magical powers that can change temperature of a room. However changing the temperature of the room ,will change the density of the rock. Hope this helps !
A neutral metal sphere is touched by a negatively charged metal rod. ... If a negative object is used to charge a neutral object, then both objects become charged negatively. In order for the neutral sphere to become negative, it must gain electrons from the negatively charged rod.
