Answer:

   

Explanation:

The components of the cell membrane consists of lipids that includes the cholesterol and phospholipids other components includes the carbohydrates, and proteins. The phospholipid forms the basic structure of the cell membrane. The cholesterol molecules are scattered in the lipid bilayer, these help the membrane in the fluid consistent state.

The main function of the plasma or cell membrane is the protection of the cell from it's surrounding.

Stolb23 [73]

The correct answer is (4) Autotrophic organism.

Green plants make their own food by the process of photosynthesis using sunlight. Most of the autotrophs use carbon dioxide, sunlight and carbon dioxide to produce glucose that is used by the plants to obtain energy. Most of the oxygen comes from these organisms and decrease in the number of green plants can lead to several problems due to decrease in the amount of oxygen. Example: green plants, algae, and even some bacteria. This food and oxygen is produced by the action of autotrophic organisms

The bolus is liquefied in the ________ and it is now called chyme.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The options:

A) esophagus

B) stomach

C) small intestine

D) mouth

The CORRECT ANSWER IS B)

B) stomach

Explanation:

The digestive tract — often termed the gastrointestinal tract or alimentary canal — supplies the route via which foods passes through the body. In the course of this pathway, foods are digested into its constituents nutrients necessarily for absorption.

Digestion initially starts in the mouth, with enzymes in saliva dissolving carbohydrate (starch). In the course of chewing, the food is lubricated, a little bit of hear is used up, and less difficult to swallow and digest. The teeth and mouth aid conversion of each morsel of food to a bolus which flows right into the esophagus (“gullet”). In the course of chewing, taste buds stationed in the mouth gives pleasure to every mouthful — or to taste if not okay. Once the bolus is swallowed, it flows through the esophagus, it is kind of warmed and lubricated as it flows into the stomach.

Note:

The acidic condition of the STOMACH and the effect of gastric enzymes turns the bolus to CHYME, A LIQUEFIED MASS that is moved from the stomach to the small intestine.

Axons of A alpha neurons conduct action potentials faster than any other type of neuron. Which of the following would account fo
never [62]

Answer:

Thick diameter, Myelinated

Explanation:

A alpha neurons conduct action potentials faster because of their large axon diameter and myelin.

  • The large diameter is less resistant to the flow of ions and allows for faster conductivity.
  • The myelin sheath is a layer of fat acting as to insulate the axon which helps increase signal conductance.
