When you forcefully exhale your entire expiratory reserve volume, any air remaining in your lungs is called the residual volume

(RV). why is it impossible to further exhale the RV (that is, where is this air volume trapped, and why is it trapped).

Answer:

Keeping the alveoli open and for constant gas exchange.

Explanation:

After maximum expiration of the air in the lungs, there remains still some air called the residual volume. This is because the alveoli, the smallest sacs in the lungs which take part in the exchange of gases between the lungs and the bloodstream, need to stay inflated and open. This also ensures that the gas exchange is continuous between breaths which is really important. I hope this answer helps.

If different masses of water are heated to the same temperature, the sample that will absorb more energy will be the mass of water with the greatest amount of water mass, because the larger the material, the greater the amount of heat needed.

<h3>What is the specific heat of water?</h3>

Water has a specific heat of 1 cal/g. ºC This means that the energy of 1 cal is required for a variation of 1 °C in 1 g of water.

With this information, we can conclude that Water's specific heat power is 4.2 joules per gram per Celsius degree or 1 calory per gram per Celsius degree.

Which of the following best describes the main purpose of the combined processes of glycolysis and cellular respiration?1 breaki
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

4. transforming the energy in glucose and related molecules in a chemical form that cells can use for work

Explanation:

Glycolysis breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate which is transformed into acetyl CoA to enter the Kreb's cycle. Kreb's cycle breakdown the acetyl CoA into CO2 and H2O. The energy stored in the glucose molecule is released during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle. The released energy is stored in the form of NADH and FADH2 as well as in few molecules of ATP.

The NADH and FADH2 enter the final step of cellular respiration, the oxidative phosphorylation. Here, NADH and FADH2 are oxidized with the help of electron transport chain (ETC). During the transfer of electrons through ETC, the proton motive force is generated which then helps in ATP synthesis.

Hence, the three steps of cellular respiration (glycolysis + Kreb's cycle + oxidative phosphorylation) retrieve the energy from nutrients such as glucose and store it in the form of ATP. ATP is used by cells as an energy source for various other functions.

Nata [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Chondroblasts; Fibroblasts

Explanation:

Mesenchymal progenitor cells will form chondrocytes combinedly called Chondroblasts that is responsible for the secretion of the rubbery matrix of cartilage.

Fibroblast on other hand produces fibers and ground substance. These ground substances and fibers make the matrix of the fibrous connective tissue.
