Removing oxygen, removing moisture and killing spoilage organisms are all ways to _______ food.

Biology
1 answer:
nasty-shy [4]3 years ago
7 0

Answer is preserve

1<em>. Removing oxygen:</em> The removal of oxygen from food preserves the food by avoiding the oxidation of food that leads to spoilage.Cover the food or vegetable tightly in air tight container to avoid oxygen reaching the cut cells which will cause  spoilage of food.The fruits and vegetables should immediately be boiled or cooked to prevent oxidation.

2. <em>Removing moisture: </em>The removal of excess water from vegetables and fruits helps in preservation of food. The bacterial growth that spoils the food grows in moist environment hence reducing the moisture content will preserve food.

<em>3. Killing spoilage organism: </em>The ultraviolet light and infrared light are used to kill the organisms causing spoilage of food. Flash technique is also used for preserving food from microorganism.

The endoplasmic reticulum bound enzyme that hydrolyzes glucose-6-phosphate to glucose in liver is:________
Valentin [98]

The endoplasmic reticulum bound enzyme that hydrolyzes glucose-6-phosphate to glucose in liver is: glucose-6-phosphatase.

Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), an enzyme found mainly in the liver and the kidneys, plays the important role of providing glucose during starvation. Unlike most phosphatases acting on water-soluble compounds, it is a membrane-bound enzyme, being associated with the endoplasmic reticulum.

Liver cells contain a membrane bound enzyme called glucose-6-phosphatase for glycogenolysis by glucagon especially during starvation when free glucose is required. As glucagon enters the liver cells it activates the enzyme glucose-6-phosphatase which then acts on glucose-6-phosphate and hydrolyzes it. As glucose-6-phosphate is hydrolyzed, it results in the formation of a phosphate group and a free glucose. The free glucose thus formed is transported from the liver cell to other tissues by specific glucose transport membrane protiens.

Calcular la presión hidrostática de una presa de 40 m de profundidad ¿Cuál es la fuerza que se ejerce en una compuerta de acero
Lorico [155]

Answer:

The pressure varies linearly with depth if the fluid is incompressible. For a horizontal surface, such as the bottom of a liquid-filled tank Fig. 1, [2], the magnitude of the resultant force is simply FR = pA where p is the uniform pressure on the bottom and A is the area of the bottom.

Explanation:

The pressure varies linearly with depth if the fluid is incompressible. For a horizontal surface, such as the bottom of a liquid-filled tank Fig. 1, [2], the magnitude of the resultant force is simply FR = pA where p is the uniform pressure on the bottom and A is the area of the bottom.

47. This cladogram shows the evolutionary relationships among some mammals
Fed [463]

Complete question:

This cladogram shows the evolutionary relationships among some mammals based on  homologous structures.

(You will find the cladogram in the attached files)

Which statement is supported by this cladogram?

A Hippopotamuses are more closely related to cows than to javelinas.

B Toothed whales are more closely related to mouse deer than to hippopotamuses.

C Javelinas and pigs are more closely related than baleen whales and toothed whales.

D Cows and mouse deer are more closely related than javelinas and pigs.

Answer:

A Hippopotamuses are more closely related to cows than to javelinas.

Explanation:  

A cladogram is a branched diagram of characteristics shared by the organisms of a group, that represents the most probable evolutive history of the linage. Cladograms reflect the phylogenetic relationships among groups through phylogenetic trees.

In the phylogenetic tree, the taxonomic groups of interest are located in the extremes of the lines called branches. The ramification point, which is also called "node" or divergence point, represents the location of the most recent common ancestor.

The common ancestor position will determine how related are two species. If they have a recent common ancestor, they are closely related to each other. On the other hand, if the common ancestor is not recent and is located far away in the tree, then the two species will be less related to each other.  

A Hippopotamuses are more closely related to cows than to javelinas. TRUE. Hippopotamuses share a common more recent ancestor with cows than with javelinas. This means that the hyppopotamus is more related to cows than to javelinas. The arrows in the cladogram (attached file) show the positions of the common ancestor shared by Hippopotamuses and Cows, and the common ancestor shared by Hippopotamuses and Javelinas.  

B Toothed whales are more closely related to mouse deer than to hippopotamuses. FALSE. Tooth whales are more related to the hyppopotamus. Their common ancestor is more recent than the common ancestor between toothed whales and mouse deer. The arrows in the cladogram (attached file) show the positions of the common ancestors.

C Javelinas and pigs are more closely related than baleen whales and toothed whales. FALSE. They are equally related.  

D Cows and mouse deer are more closely related than javelinas and pigs.

FALSE. They are equally related.

Correct sequence of secondary succession
Finger [1]

Answer:

Secondary succession is the series of community changes which take place on a previously colonized, but disturbed or damaged habitat. Examples include areas which have been cleared of existing vegetation (such as after tree-felling in a woodland) and destructive events such as fires.
