compare the effects of HCl on protein digestion by pepsin and on starch digestion by salivary amylase. Explain the physiological

significance of these effects.
Physics
1 answer:
Murljashka [212]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

HCI creates an acidic environment, which promotes the process of pepsin.

When that happens, pepsin is maximally active and works on a fully digestion of the presented protein.

On the other hand HCI prevents the activeness of the amylase, thereby only a small part of starch is digested.

Explanation:

The physiological significance of these effects are: salivary glands found in the mouth which has a neutral pH environment segregates amylase, meanwhile pepsinogen becomes pepsin thanks to the compatibility with this environment.

While pepsin is widely active at a lower pH inside the stomach, amylase activity, on the other hand decreases at lower pH environment.

A series of optical telescopes produced an image that has a resolution of about 0.00350 arc second.
Mila [183]

Answer:

The smallest diameter is D =122 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The resolution of the telescope is \theta  =  0.00350 \ arc \ second

           The wavelength is  \lambda = 1.70 \mu m = 1.70 *10^{-6} \ m

From the question we are told that

        1 arc \ sec = \frac{1}{3600^o}

So      0.00350 \ arc \ second = x

Therefore

             x =  0.00350  *  \frac{1}{3600 }

              x = ( 9.722*10^{-7} )^o

Now  1^o  =  \frac{\pi}{180}

   So  (9.722*10^{-7})^o =  \theta

  =>    \theta  =  (9.722*10^{-7}) * \frac{\pi}{180}

           \theta  =  1.69*10^{-8} rad

The smallest diameter is mathematically represented  as

          D = \frac{1.22 \lambda }{\theta  }

substituting values

           D = \frac{1.22 * 1.7 *10^{-6}} {1.69 *10^{-8}  }

           D =122 \ m

Differences in ocean-surface height can be measured by _____.\
bonufazy [111]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Satellite

Differences in ocean-surface height can be measured by<u> Satellite</u>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The topography of the ocean or the height of the ocean surface relative to a level of no motion provides the information on tides, and the distribution of heat and mass in the Earths's oceans.
  • <em><u>The ocean topography is measured using satellites altimeter. Satellites use radar altimeters that are specially made to measure the height of the ocean surface.  The satellites measure the height of the ocean surface with an accuracy of 3 cm relative to the center of the earth.</u></em>
  • Satellite altimeter combines precise orbit determination with accurate ranging by a microwave altimeter of ocean distance to the satellite.
