Answer:

B) Interstitial fluid

Explanation:

The intracellular fluid  is a compartment that includes all fluid encapsulated in cells by their plasma membranes.

Extracellular fluid encircles all cells in the body. Extracellular fluid is sub-divided into two sections:

  • The Plasma: This is the fluid component of the blood. Plasma advances through the body in blood vessels and transports blood cells and other materials.
  • The interstitial fluid: They are found in spaces around the cells. They helps in  transportation of  materials between capillaries and cells in the Interstitial fluid e.g they directs oxygen and nutrients into the cells and helps to remove waste products from it.

Movement of Glucose is achieved by facilitated diffusion in the interstitisl fluid compartment.

Facilitated DIffusion is the movement of molecules across a membrane through a type of integral proteins that spans the entire cell membrane. (i.e whereby a molecule (e.g glucose molecule) move down a concentration gradient through specific protein channels in the membrane).

Now, the fluid through which glucose move between the plasma and the skeletal muscle cell is called the Interstitial Fluid, this because it is the pathway through which glucose molecule are carried to their target cell(i.e skeletal muscle cells) with the help of transport proteins.

A falling blood pH and a rising partial pressure of carbon dioxide usually indicate:
Olegator [25]

Answer:

The correct option is: a. respiratory acidosis        

Explanation:

Respiratory acidosis is a serious medical condition which is characterized by hypoventilation i.e. decrease in ventilation. Hypoventilation causes an increase in the carbon dioxide concentration in blood, thus <u>increasing the partial pressure of carbon dioxide</u> which leads to a <u>decrease in the pH of the blood</u>. Respiratory acidosis is of two types: acute and chronic.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The answer to the question: Electrical impulses or action potentials (AP) cannot propagate across a synaptic cleft. Instead, neurotransmitters are used to communicate at the synapse, and re-restablish the AP in the post-synaptic cell, would be, true.

Explanation:

Essentially, although the CNS, PNS and ANS (Central Nervous System, Peripheral Nervous System and Autonomic Nervous System) are electrical systems, that use the electricity generated through action potentials, that in turn, are created by the exchange of electrically charged ions from within and without the neuronal cells, these electrical impulses do not pass the pre-synaptic, and post-synaptic cleft. Instead, once an AP has reached the terminal end of the pre-synaptic neuron, neurotransmitters are released by this one, into the cleft, which are then taken up by the receptors present in the post-synaptic neuron. Depending on the type of transmitter released, there will be an inhibitory or excitatory effect. Then, with the transmitter attached, the post-synaptic neuron will depolarize and a new AP will be generated in the post-synaptic neuron, which will carry on. Messages, thus are transmitted that way between neurons, and also, between the nervous system and the organs they influence.

Predict what would happen to the volume of red blood cells if they were placed in a 1400 mOSM solution of NaCl. Predict what wou
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

If red blood cells are placed in a hypertonic solution, they will shrink because the water moves out of the cell through osmosis. When red blood cells are places in hypotonic solution they swell and rupture because the water moved in the cell through osmosis.

Explanation:

If red blood cells are placed in 1400mOsm of NaCl, the cell volume will be lost because the wayer in the cell moves out due to higher concentration of salt outside, they will shrink.

Similarly if the red blood cells are places in urea and NaCl the cell will again shrink.
