The most important function of osmosis is stabilising the internal environment of an organism by keeping the water and intercellular fluids levels balanced. In all living organisms, nutrients and minerals make their way to the cells because of osmosis. This obviously is essential to the survival of a cell.

Match each muscle term with weather they are Smooth Muscle and or Cardiac Muscle
Hoochie [10]

Answer:Three types of muscle tissue exist in the body namely;

Skeletal muscles which moves bones and other structures of the body.example,the bicep muscle.

Cardiac muscles found in the heart that contract the heart to pump blood.

Smooth muscles found in hollow organs like stomach, intestines and blood vessels.

All the muscles terms used in the questions are all related to Skeletal muscles and not Cardiac or Smooth muscle.

Explanation:

A; The fixed end of a muscle is called the Origin of the muscle.

B; The mobile end of a muscle is know as muscle insertion.

C; A muscle that accomplishes a certain movement is called an agonist.example;flexion.

D; A muscle that opposes a muscle that accomplishes a certain movement is known as antagonist.

Antagonist relaxes relatively to stretch when faced with opposition.

E; Members of a group of muscles working together to produce a movement is known as synergists.example, muscles involved in the flexion of the elbow.

F; Muscles that hold one bone in place relative to the body are known as Fixators. example,muscles of the scapula holding it in place during contraction or movement.

G; One muscle of a group working together that plays the major role in accomplishing the movement is known as synergist.example, bicep brachii and bra- chialis in elbow flexion.

Which of these is an example of the action of an endocrine disruptor? bpa in bottles affects particular glands. feedback from es
Olenka [21]
The correct answer is bpa in bottles affects particular glands.
 
An endocrine disruptor is a chemical which at certain doses can disrupt the normal endocrine function of the organism. The effects of an endocrine disruptor can be quite severe, from birth deficits and cancerous tumours to developmental disorders.

One of the most commonly detected chemicals in the human body is bisphenol A (BPA), a material used in the production of plastics. It is considered an exoestrogen, meaning that it possesses hormone- and estrogen-like properties. These properties affect specific glands of the human body causing reproductive and neurological problems, obesity, diabetes and some types of cancer.

Feedback from estrogen is a mechanism that the human body uses to control the FSH release from the gonads. This is not considered an endocrine disruptor since it is a natural mechanism. In addition, iodine is a chemical element essential for the synthesis of thyroid hormones. Any lack of it is not considered an endocrine disruptor. Finally, calcitonin is a hormone produced in humans by specific cells of the thyroid gland and it is not considered an endocrine disruptor.
