What is the percentage of calories were absorbed by your system??? Helpppp
denpristay [2]
Calories in and of themselves aren't a reliable way of describing energy density in food. It doesn't reflect what actually happens in your body (look up bomb-calorimeter for how people figure out calorie content in foods). So based on this, the question is a bit of a non-sequitur. But if you disregard that and go with a regular answer, it really depends on what kind of calories you're ingesting because foods get digested in a function of different amounts of time. Carbohydrates will get digested and converted into glucose almost immediately - being very close to 100% energy efficiency. Fats are the slowest as your body needs to produce bile in order to digest it - not enough bile = undigested fat = unused calories. Proteins are turned into either amino acids (not an energy source per se) or converted into glucose like carbs but instead through gluconeogenesis which is a less efficient form of glucose conversion than carbohydrates (since your liver/kidneys need to produce the enzymes to convert it). The efficiency of protein is likely in the range of 50-60% calories. This is just the tip of the iceberg though - your metabolism also plays a part as to how much and when these calories are either used, stored, and excreted by your body. Ever got the meat sweats? That's your body burning excess energy through thermogenesis when you eat too much protein. So it really depends why you're asking because the answer will differ for each scenario.

Which process must the cell undergo to have genetically different cells at the end of cell division?
Ksenya-84 [330]
 A cell must undergo the process of meiosis in order to have genetically different cells at the end of cell division. Meiosis produces four daughter (haploid) cells, each of which is genetically distinct from the parent cell from which they arose.

Temka [501]

Complete question:

Tenesha is trying to draw a parallelogram and find its area using the two line segments shown.She begins by finding the missing vertex on the graph to be point (9, 5). Then she calculates the area of the parallelogram. What errors did she make? Check all that apply.

She did not find the correct vertex; it should be at (8, 5).

She used the wrong area formula; it should be mr023-3

She used the wrong length for the base; it should be 7, like the given base.

She used a side length of the parallelogram for the height instead of a line segment perpendicular to the base; the height should be 3.

She should have found a segment for the top that was not parallel to the bottom.

Answer:

2nd and 3rd option is incorrect.

Explanation:

The parallelogram is a simple quadrilateral with two parallel pairs of sides. The opposite or reverse sides of the parallelogram are of similar duration and the reverse angles of the parallelogram are of equivalent proportion.

The square has two sets of parallel sides, four right angles, and the four sides are identical. It's even a triangle and a parallelogram.

The rhombus is known as a four-sided parallelogram.
