Mr. Smith is hyperglycemic with a blood glucose level of 300mg/ml of blood. Explain how homeostasis would regulate his glucose l

evels through a negative feedback system.
Chemistry
1 answer:
aleksley [76]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

When the animal has eaten food and the blood glucose level in the body increases. The pancreas cells in the body detects the increase in the blood glucose which leads to increase the insulin hormone.

This decreases the blood glucose level in the level. This is how the negative feedback works in the body if the level of glucose increases.

Negative feedback is the way by which the body maintains homeostasis and maintains equilibrium in the body.

What is the overall charge of the electron cloud of the atom? Explain.​
Tresset [83]
<h2>It means that there are Z positive nuclear charges, and this determines the identity of the element. If the element is neutral, this means that there are precisely Z electrons, and the overall electronic charge is −Z . And thus the net ELECTRIC charge of the ATOM is Z+(−Z)=0 , i.e. zero </h2>

The element lead (pb) consists of four naturally occurring isotopes with atomic masses 203.97302,205.97444,206.97587, n 207.9766
Marina CMI [18]

The method of determining the most common isotope of lead is by determining the average atomic mass. The formula for determining the average atomic mass is:

average atomic mass = \Sigma {percent abundance}\times {atomic mass}

Substituting the values in the formula:

average atomic mass = \frac{{203.97302}\times {1.4}+{205.9744}\times {24.1}+{206.97587}\times {22.1}+{207.97663}\times {52.4}}{100}

average atomic mass = \frac{285.562228+4963.984004+4574.166727+10897.975412}{100}

average atomic mass = \frac{20721.688371}{100} = 207.22 amu

The most common isotope of lead is:

Lead - 207.22 amu

The atomic symbol of lead is Pb. The atomic number of Pb is 82.

So, the the most common isotope of lead can be written as:

_{207.22}^{82}Pb and Lead - 207.22 amu.

A target is shielded from a radioactive sample by a sheet of metal. What kind of radiation can pass through the sheet of metal
White raven [17]

Answer:

gamma rays only is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Every radiation has different penetrating power to penetrate in materials and the flow of particles through a material is called penetration power.

Penetrating power of the gamma rays is very high because it has no mass and charges that the reason it can travel far in the air than beta particles and alpha particles.

Alpha particles can be blocked by paper and beta particles can  easily passes through  paper but it cannot pass through aluminum sheet whereas gamma particles are hardest to blocked, gamma particles can be blocked by heavy shielding.

Thus the radiation can pass through sheet of metak and hit the target is only gamma rays.

Calcium carbonate can be broken
arlik [135]

Answer:

Thermal decomposition

Explanation:

Calcium carbonate can be broken  down by heating. The following equation represents this chemical change.

CaCO₃(s) ⇒ CaO(s) + CO₂(g)

The scientific term for this process is thermal decomposition.

  • Thermal refers to the fact that heat is required.
  • Decomposition refers to the kind of reaction in which a big substance breaks down into smaller substances.
