Answer:
Mechanical digestion begins in the mouth as the food is chewed. Chemical digestion involves breaking down the food into simpler nutrients that can be used by the cells.
Explanation:
Chemical digestion begins in the mouth when food mixes with saliva. Saliva contains an enzyme (amylase) that begins the breakdown of carbohydrates.
The doctor uses an EEG or also known as
Electroencephalography, this is used to record the activity of the brain,
electrically. This will help the doctor make a proper diagnosis of Ronald even
if he’s sleeping and to view what type of disorder he has with the given
results.
Answer:
By lowering the levels of total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL)
Explanation:
Dietary fibers are classified into two: the soluble fiber and the insoluble fiber. Studies have show that the soluble fiber play a significant role in lowering blood cholesterol, hence reducing the cardiovascular diseases.
Soluble fiber helps to lower blood cholesterol by its ability to bind to the small intestine which further binds to cholesterol most especially the ad cholesterol (low density lipoprotein). Binding of Fibers to cholesterol prevents them from migrating to the blood stream and to other parts of the body. Since cholesterol can't get into the bloodstream, it exits the body through feces. Fiber has more effect on lowering LDL (bad cholesterol) than High density lipoprotein (good cholesterol.
Answer:
C) acetylcholine
Explanation:
Acetylcholine is an excitatory neurotransmitter secreted by motor neurons innervating skeletal muscle.
However, norepinephrine, gamma aminobutyric acid, and cholinesterase are not excitatory neurotransmitter secreted by motor neurons innervating skeletal muscle.
Answer:
Osmosis is the process of having water pass from a low concentration medium to a high concentration one, given that the barrier (membrane) is semi-permeable.
Explanation
Cells encounter osmosis due to their semi-permeable membranes. Water can flow past cell membranes. A given cell placed into distilled water will have some water flow into it, causing it to burst. A given cell placed in a very concentrated water will have some water flow out of it, causing it to shrivel. A given cell placed in a solution with the same concentration of minerals as the cell will have an equilibrium of water flowing in and out. This is the case of IV (Intravenous therapy) when we want to deliver substances into a human blood. We want to make sure the liquid delivered is as concentrated as the blood to avoid cell shriveling or bursting.
This picture above sums up the 3 cases cells could face in a solution.
Good luck!
