vampirchik [111]3 years ago
6 0
Starches are known as polysaccharides. If we look at the word "polysaccharide" poly means "many" and saccharide means "sugar" so we can infer that a polysaccharide is a molecule composed of many sugars. We can also refer to starches as complex meaning that they are composed of simpler subunits. Those subunits are simple sugars (AKA monosaccharides) such as glucose, fructose, and galactose. When we hydrolyze a compound, we break it down into smaller components. Based on all of this information, hydrolyzed starches breaks it down into simple sugars such as glucose, fructose, etc. I hope the explanation is helpful.

Describe what messages are sent by the nervous system when you go outside wearing a sweater on a very hot day.​
mr_godi [17]

Answer and Explanation:

In homeostatic control processes any deviation from the norm sets into motion the appropriate corrective mechanisms which restore the norm. This rectification occurs through negative feedback. When you go outside wearing a sweater on a hot day, the body sends messages to the CNS and the following occurs:

  • The superficial blood vessels vasodilate so that more blood flows near the surface. This encourages heat loss.
  • Sweating and panting. Sweat secreted by the sweat glands evaporate from the surface of the body as it absorbs latent heat.
  • The metabolic rate falls so that the body generates less heat. You also become less active
  • Behavioural response by seeking cooler areas, cold drinks or removal of the sweater.
