<span>Fatty acids are fats that have acidic carboxyl groups on them. Something like CH3-(CH2)n-COOH Unsaturated fatty acids have double bonds between 1 or more of the carbons in the chain. They are unsaturated with hydrogen, but can be hydrogenated chemically. Fatty acids have many roles, but a very common one is to form the lipids in membranes. In that case two fatty acids are usually joined to phosphate plus some other chemical groups.</span>

How does the function of the glottis help the frog survive?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

This voice box occurs in all amphibians but is anatomically most complex in frogs. The larynx exits into the trachea; the latter bifurcates into the bronchi and then into the lungs. The glottis then opens, and elastic recoil of the lungs forces the pulmonary air out and over the new air in the buccopharyngeal pocket.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

here

Explanation:

In a negative feedback loop, an increase in a factor will result in a change in the body that'll reduce the value of this factor to the set point.

For example, an increase in the blood glucose levels after a meal will cause an increase in the levels of insulin in the blood which will lower the glucose levels.

However, in this example, an increase in the pressure generated by the fetus also increases the frequency of uterus contractions. So the more the pressure, the more the contractions.

At what temperature does all molecular motion stop?
Over [174]

Answer:

Absolute Zero

Explanation:

It is based on molecular motion, with the temperature of 0K, also known as absolute zero, being the point where all molecular motion ceases. The freezing point of water on the Kelvin scale is 273.15K, while the boiling point is 373.15K

It wouldn't be 0 degrees C or 0 degrees F because the temp of the molecular motion stop in Celsius is -273.15 degrees and in Fahrenheit it would be -459.67 degrees.

I hope this helps :)
