They would be likely to be underweight. This is because the role of villi is to increase absorption of soluble molecules, they do this by increasing surface area for absorption to occur across.
If the person has less villi than normal in their small intestine, then the surface area will not be as large meaning there is less area for absorption to occur across so less soluble molecules will be absorbed.

Determine the energy in joules of a photon whose frequency is 3.55 x10^17 hz
asambeis [7]
By using the Plancks-Einstein equation, we can find the energy;
E = hf
where h is the plancks constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴
f = frequency = 3.55 x 10¹⁷hz
E = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴) x (3.55 x 10¹⁷)
E = 2.354 x 10⁻¹⁶J

A service elevator takes a load of garbage, mass 10.0 kg, from a floor of a skyscraper under construction, down to ground level,
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force the garbage exerts on the floor of the service elevator is 12 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the garbage, m = 10.0 kg

acceleration of the elevator, a = 1.2 m/s²

The magnitude of the force the garbage exerts on the floor of the service elevator is given by;

F = ma

F = 10 x 1.2

F = 12 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the force the garbage exerts on the floor of the service elevator is 12 N

The student quickly discovers that placing the marshmallow over the flame is more effective than heating the marshmallow on the
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The answer is convection.

Explanation:

There are three types of heat transfer: conduction, convection and radiation.

  • Conduction occurs when two objects touch each other and transfer heat.
  • Convection occurs when an object heats its surrounding fluid (like air, or water) and, since the hot fluids are less dense than the cold ones, they go up. So convection is a type of heat transfer that usually goes from down to up.
  • Radiation occurs when objects emanate heat in the form of electromagnetic waves that propagates in all directions.

So in this case, when the marshmallow is above the fire, it is exposed to convection, which does not occur when it is on the side of the fire.
