VLD [36.1K]4 years ago
7 0
When we eat, the food that we swallow needs to be digested or broken down into nutrients that our bodies are able to absorb. Complex protein and sugar molecules need to be broken down into macromolecules. The duodenum is also known as the smallest and shortest segment of the small intestine. Digestive enzymes are macromolecules that are not digested, but present in the duodenum. Their sole function is to help break down the food into smaller molecules allowing the nutrients to be extracted and absorbed through the wall of the duodenum into the rest of the human body

If the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume. When this happens, the cell must divide into smaller cells with favorable surface area/volume ratios, or cease to function. That is why cells are so small.

simpler answer: Cells are small because they need to keep a surface area to volume ratio that allows for appropriate intake of nutrients while being able to eliminate the cells waste.

How many chambers does a frog heart have and why is this advancement necessary for a land animal?
Galina-37 [17]
A frog heart has 3 chambers, 1 ventricle and 2 atria. One atrium (the right) receives deoxygenated blood from the frog's body (in the systemic circulation) and then pumped to the single ventricle wherein it will go to the lungs to be oxygenated. Another atrium (the left) received oxygenated blood from the lungs then pumped to the single ventricle wherein it will go to the systemic circulation. In the single ventricle, some form of mixing of the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood happens but since the frog is a cold blooded animal, the decrease in the concentration of oxygen is deemed superficial. 

This advancement allows the frog to live on land using the lungs as the primary organ for oxygenation of the blood.
